    Charles Barkley thinks LeBron James can be better than Michael Jordan.

    Jordan is considered by many the best player in NBA history, but Barkley believes his teammate with the Dream Team can be surpassed by James.

    "I do think he can be better than Michael," Barkley said. "I thought I would never compare somebody to Michael Jordan. But this guy, LeBron James, he does everything well. Michael did everything well. LeBron James is just bigger, stronger, faster. That's the only difference."

    Barkley makes his comments on the first episode of NBA TV's "Open Court," to debut Tuesday at 11 p.m. ET. The series features a round-table discussion of NBA TV and TNT commentators. They include Shaquille O'Neal, Reggie Miller, Kenny Smith, Steve Smith, Chris Webber, Steve Kerr and Ernie Johnson.

    yep, i saw the article that phil jackson basically said the same thing.

    i don't think it's a ridiculous thought at this point. lebron can be just as dominant and take over games. if he can pile up some more rings, i think it's a legitimate conversation.

    but, we don't know what the future holds. lebron could get fat and lazy now that he has a ring
