LeBron James explains why he could've been a "perfect" teammate for Michael Jordan

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James believes he could be a perfect teammate for Michael Jordan.

There have been debates in the NBA, concerning the best player of all time — James or Jordan. Both of them have shown impressive games, winning remarkable titles during their spell.

Jordan has won six NBA championships, as many Finals MVP's and five Most Valuable Player awards, while James has won two titles with the Miami Heat, one with the Cleveland Cavaliers and three Finals MVP honors. Yet, he was named as the Most Valuable Player four times.

Speaking about Jordan, James has fantasized about being Chicago Bulls great's teammate.

"Me personally the way I play the game — team first — I feel like my best assets work perfectly with Mike," the 35-year-old said in a video via Uninterrupted's YouTube Channel on Monday.

Mike is an assassin. When it comes to playing the game of basketball, scoring the way he scored the ball [then] my ability to pass, my ability to read the game plays and plays and plays in advance."

I saw the things [Scottie Pippen] was able to do with Mike, I just think it would've been a whole 'nother level.

Pip was one of my favorite players...it would've been a whole 'nother level with me being that point forward alongside of him during those Chicago runs."
