JAKARTA - LeBron James discussed a hypothetical scenario of being a teammate with Michael Jordan. He felt he would step up the game of the American basketball legend.
The Los Angeles Lakers superstar believes, with him as point guard, the Chicago Bulls will produce higher levels of basketball.
"The way I play the game is to live by the 'team first' philosophy - I feel my best asset is working perfectly with Mike," LeBron told the Uninterrupted YouTube Channel.
"Mike is a murderer.
"When he was going to play basketball, the way he scored points, my passing skills, my ability to read the game and play and play and play ...
"It would be a much different level with me being the point guard beside him during Chicago's glorious days."
Michael Jordan's new documentary, The Last Dance, stole the attention of NBA fans. This film tells of the career of the NBA legend, who successfully led the Chicago Bulls to win six titles in the 1990s.
The Last Dance presents behind-the-scenes recordings of the Bulls' 1997/1998 season, as well as the story of Jordan's career since he was a teenager until he became a phenomenal athlete for the Bulls.
The film was originally set to be broadcast in June when the NBA entered the finals, but when various sports programs had to be stopped due to the pandemic, ESPN accelerated its screening schedule.
Swedish footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of many athletes who admire Jordan's confrontational leadership style. In one episode of The Last Dance, it highlights Jordan's treatment of his teammates.
Jordan reveals how he faced current Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr during training. It was then she used the power of love to try and persuade Scott Burrell's best.
"Victory has a price and leadership has a price," Jordan said at the end of episode seven.
"I love watching The Last Dance," wrote Ibrahimovic on Twitter.

"Now you see how to play with a winner. Whether you like it or not. If not then don't play."
No wonder LeBron James fantasized about wanting to play with Jordan and gave his own hypothesis that he could make the legend even higher if he played in the same era. Check out King James' full statement in the video below:
