Antoine Griezmann was full of pride after his goalscoring performance in Barcelona's 5-2 rout of Real Betis.
The Frenchman scored twice, the second being particularly memorable with a cut inside and curling finish, almost reminiscent of Lionel Messi.
"Yes, I saw Leo do it in training and I copied him," Griezmann said, laughing, to Movistar after the game.
"The celebration? I liked what LeBron [James] did and tried to copy him."
It was essential for the 28-year-old - and Barcelona - to respond after the defeat to Athletic Club last weekend.
"After the defeat there were a lot of comments; we had to work this week," Griezmann admitted.
"We woke up after their goal and in the end we played well, with a lot of chances. We enjoyed ourselves and we hope it's always like that.
"We really wanted to play again after Bilbao; we improved but there are still details to work on."
