Tyson Chandler makes huge Michael Jordan cliam

Michael Jordan is the only player in NBA History who compares with LeBron James, according to Los Angeles Lakers centre Tyson Chandler. Chandler thinks James deserves to be in the discussion about the NBA GOAT. “It’s truly remarkable what he’s been able to do for as long as he’s been able to,” he said. “I came out right before him and (remember) seeing all the hype that was coming along with him, and I remember thinking ‘I don’t know if anybody can live up to that hype.’ And not only has he lived up to that hype, but he’s also surpassed the hype. Honestly, you can’t even necessarily describe that. There’s only one other guy that you can compare him with, and that’s MJ (Jordan). At this point, he’s arguably fighting for the greatest of all-time.” LeBron James finished with 51 points as his Los Angeles Lakers side beat his former club the Miami heat 113-97.
