Los Angeles Lakers star forward LeBron James has been endlessly compared to Michael Jordan over the course of his career.

James has never compared himself to Jordan, though, and in a new interview with ESPN he explained why.

"I never have compared myself to MJ because our games are totally different," James said. "I have been a point-forward/forward-point my whole life. I have always looked for the pass. MJ kind of looked for the shot. Not kind of, he did. He looked for the shot.

"There are a lot of things where I would say my game is a lot different and a little better than his, but s---, he was f---ing great. We're both great. We're both great basketball players."

When it comes to the nonstop debate about who is truly better between James and Jordan, James thinks that both players have certain advantages.

"There are a lot of things that MJ did better than I do," James said, "and I think there are some things that I do better than him. That's just how the game goes. There's a lot of things that I can say in particular."
