Mario Chalmers has named Michael Jordan as the NBA\u2019s GOAT, questioning the comparison with LeBron James. The former Miami Heat player pointed particularly to Jordan\u2019s dominance throughout the 1990s and the fear he believes Jordan inspired in his opponents.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis man was 6-0 in the Finals. He dominated the 90s basically. Yes, Bron went to nine straight Finals, but Jordan dominated a decade. There have only been three teams to win a ring in the 90s. You go to Bron\u2019s era, there have been four or five.\u201d<\/p>\n
Chalmers then added: \u201cWhy isn\u2019t LeBron being compared to Pippen? Nobody fears Bron. Nobody is like, \u2018Damn, I gotta go play against Bron tonight.\u2019 Nobody said that. I\u2019ve seen people be scared when they actually line up against him, but they\u2019re not scared thinking about that matchup.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
