We don’t have to wonder what LeBron James is going to do after he retires because he already knows.   James said his “dream is to actually own” an NBA team.

James made the comments during the first episode of a new podcast for Uninterrupted, the on-line, social media-driven platform he created for athletes. He was responding to a question about whether he might want to be a general manager when his playing days are over.

“I think so,” James said on the podcast, called ‘Open Run,’ hosted by actor Jesse Williams and Stefan Marolachakis.

“I feel like my brain as far as the game of basketball is unique and I would love to continue to give my knowledge to the game,” James said. “And I would love to be a part of a franchise, if not at the top. My dream is to actually own a team and I don’t need to have fully hands on. If I’m fortunate enough to own a team, then I’m going to hire the best GM and president that I can.

“But I have a feel like I have a good eye for not only talent, because we all see a lot of talent, but the things that make the talent, the chemistry, what type of guy he is, his work ethic, his passion, the basketball IQ side of things, because talent only goes so far.”

Many have already said LeBron is the GM of the Cavaliers.  He hand-picked his teammates and they eventually won an NBA championship.
