There isn’t much LeBron James can’t do at this point. After winning his second consecutive championship, appearing on the new NBA 2K14 and pretty much taking over the title as the best basketball player on the planet, it wouldn’t be in commissioner David Stern‘s best interests to stop him from doing anything he wants.

The king is getting a little ambitious, however. He admitted during a recent interview with ESPN’s Chris Broussard that he is planning on switching things up this year by bringing back an old classic — short-shorts.

I’m just wondering how in the heck they played like that. I might bring it back, though. I might play in some small shorts this year. Pay my homage to the ’80s, to Dr. J and John Stockton. I don’t think it’s going to catch on, but I’m going to do it one game, maybe opening night. I can’t go all the way up (the legs), though. Athletes today are built a little differently in the legs.
Between talking sh*t about Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett moving out to Brooklyn and this, I’m sure Heat fans are wishing that he’d focus on more important things. Mainly things like pulling off the three-peat. Then again, I don’t think Miami fans ever really give a f*ck.
