LeBron James Uses Michael Jordan Example to Argue NBA Is ‘Best It’s Ever Been’ originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Over the past two decades, the NBA has seen a change in how superstar-level players contribute to their teams, and no one knows that better than Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James.

Since James and Jordan are different players with somewhat different skill sets and mindsets, perhaps it could've worked. During an episode of the "Mind the Game" podcast, James said his game would've fit alongside Jordan's game, since he is essentially a point forward and Jordan was a pure scorer.

The Chicago Bulls legend revealed that a Los Angeles Lakers star "intimidated" him when he faced him in the NBA.
