During an episode of The Shop recorded in Paris, Lakers star LeBron James was asked if he thinks he could compete in an Olympic event other than basketball. The 39-year-old clarified that he'd need considerable time to train for any other sport before highlighting two events...

quote:
"I think I can do the long jump, maybe, or the high jump," James said. "If you give me some time. I need about six months, eight months, or whatever preparation to get to that."

He'd win gold in the flop and another one in whining.

Oh, the sports people train their whole lives for? Would look like a huge fricking idiot doing high jump. I hate this dude!

He wont even do the slam dunk competition. His ego is amazing. This fool probably thinks he should be president one day too.

I myself am thinking about the decathlon. Pretty sure I'll be ready for Worlds. How hard could it be to take up a new sport and beat others that have been doing it for 20 years?

I can’t think of a more attention whore athlete than the self proclaimed king.

However, he could only achieve the LeBronze medal in humility.

Would certainly compete in the high jump using a modified version of the Fosbury Flop.
