Durant vs. James in Flag Football?

OK here's one of those "just for fun" ideas while nothing else is going on in the NBA.

STILLWATER, Okla. (AP)—With the NBA lockout dragging on, two-time scoring champion Kevin Durant(notes) was ready for some football. Flag football.

And LeBron James could be interested in joining him.

Durant tweeted Monday that he was interested in playing flag football. When fans at Oklahoma State University offered an invitation, he showed up in Stillwater that night to play. He tweeted later that he threw four touchdown passes and made three interceptions in a victory.

Then on Tuesday, James tweeted to him that he was interested in setting up a showdown between Durant’s team and his own team in Akron, Ohio. Durant answered back that his team is ready and James should set it up.

The NBA season would have started Tuesday if not for the lockout.

Now, please tell me, was anyone NOT thinking "I didn't know flag football only went three quarters?"

Too bad it isn't LeBron James against Ray Lewis.

Oh, wait a sec, I forgot. LBJ doesn't like being touched.
