Bill Simmons on LeBron’s future

The King and The Prez

The King and The Prez

In Bill Simmons’ podcast “The B.S. Report” there are many topics. When you tune in you could hear anything from sports to reality TV talk. Lately Simmons has been talking about LeBron’s future a lot. In my opinion Simmons is a hilarious Sports Guy with a lot of insight on the NBA, so give his thoughts a listen and see what you think.

He asked David Stern where he thought LeBron would go in 2010. Stern’s answer, “There’s a lot of interest, whatever he does, whether he stays or goes…I grew up in this league, valuing no contraction and players staying with their existing team.” Once again, the NBA’s commissioner hopes that LeBron stays in Cleveland. We’ll see if he has any pull!

In an earlier talk with JA Adande Simmons shared a couple of his own theories. Here’s one that involves the dreaded Wizards, “Washington somehow avoids Arenas’ contract, they trade Butler, they trade Jamison, they have all this cap room all of a sudden. They lure LeBron, last week of October Sports Illustrated comes out LeBron/Obama on the cover…The King and The Prez.”

After that ridiculous thought he said that he thought LeBron to the Wizards was in his top five LeBron possibilities. Simmons went on to predict that Bosh and LeBron would end up in Chicago. Adande said that he believes it will be Miami or Cleveland.

While all of the theories are very interesting, I’m hoping that LeBron will stay in Cleveland and we’ll find a way to sign another free agent in 2011. Only time will tell, but the media will continue to dissect all the possibilities. If you haven’t had the chance to check out The B.S. Report go to iTunes and download a podcast (it’s FREE!)
