Carmelo Anthony has asked the 40-year-old LeBron James to join him in the land of retired NBA players.
Anthony suggested that James should consider retirement after the next NBA season, jokingly suggesting his 23 year career more than covers it.
“He’s still going, it’s unbelievable, man,” Anthony said during a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. “That’s my brother. We talk about being around, being together, being tied, being connected, being talked about since we were 17, 18 years old. And for me to be entering the Hall of Fame, and for him, hopefully, to get his ass up out of there and come on over this side (smiles). Enough is enough. Give it a break.”
Celtics champion Paul Pierce definitely thinks this could be James’s last year in the NBA.
“If I’m a betting man, I think this will be his last season,” Pierce said. “You know, I think he’s played 21, 22 years. He’s been the GOAT for so long. He’s maintained the stats. We appreciate what he brought to the game and how he’s held the mantle since (Michael) Jordan left. Bron is one of them ones. We appreciate him. But I think his time is up. But we appreciate what he’s done for the league.”
So what will LeBron be doing once he does officially retire?
It won’t be in basketball coaching, he has already confirmed.
“No, no coaching for me,” James said on Sports Scene recently. “I was inspired by the game. I love the game. But I don’t have coaching in my future.”
Golf seems to be the latest hobby Bron has picked up over the summer. He even went out and played in the rain recently.
So once he does retire, some more days on the green could certainly be in store.
