Ok, time to lighten up this tax season a little – how do you think basketball great LeBron James would fare if he had to be an accountant and tax preparer. As someone who played in basketball city leagues in Burbank for 35 years (until I couldn’t guard anyone), I would be interested to see if King James would be as good on a spreadsheet or preparing a 1040 as he is throwing down a windmill dunk or kissing it off the glass? Adam Blitz speculates on this in AccountingToday:

I personally think Lebron would be great at whatever he does (but in my opinion, Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul would be a little bit better because Lebron is too nice a guy and would give his guys time off while Kobe and Chris would work their guys for 24 hours straight) but all three have the mental fortitude to get through things fine (Kobe might be a little rough on his customers, but they will thank him in the end when he saves them taxes.)
