Where do you rank LeBron and Jokic all-time among point guards

Suppose you get a choice of any point guard all-time, or you get LeBron/Jokic plus a guy like Derek Fisher/Mario Chalmers.

I'm not sure I understand...I get Lebron AND someone else? Which point guard do you imagine could compete with that? Am I magically enforced playing Lebron/Jokic at the 1? Or something? I would like to suggest that perhaps it should be the other way: you get Karl Malone and any point guard ever, or Lebron

Lebron is better than any point guard.

Jokic...hm...jury is still out but at the rate he's going at probably. If not then the ancient 3 of Magic, Oscar and Jerry.

I will take Lebron over any pg.

Only pgs I take over Jokic are Magic and Curry.

I think a more interesting idea is:

Who do you take over Lebron and Jokic in terms of pure passing ability.

James is a PG.
Jokic is a hub (not a PG).

Jokic is not a PG, LeBron is a point forward although for probably 80% of his career he's served as the default PG for his teams.
