    Why do I have a feeling he’s gonna have a couple hats in front of him like this is college?

    I hope he picks NY but I wouldn’t be upset if he chooses Cleveland.

    “Chris Broussard on ESPN just said ‘dont be surprised if its the New York Knicks.’ Why wouldnt I be surprised?”

    Really, a television network driven by rating would never try to boost viewership by throwing empty rumors about LeBron joining a team in NYC (20 million people) or Chicago (10 million). They are beholden to the highest of journalistic ethics.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

    I couldn’t get it out without laughing.

    I’m sorry but that just griinds my gears. He started saying how much he loves New York and MSG and made all these subtle hints about New York and caused this whole media frenzy about this year’s free agency for a full year. Then he tried to set up an extravagant free agency “tour” where each city he visited Nike would design a new shoe. And now it culminates to this: a primetime announcement on ESPN, which I’m sure will get big Nielsen numbers.

    Lebron James is a great player, but he is also an attention whore.

    I can’t see him signing a long term deal with the Cavs if he stays. The team can’t compete with Orlando without a legit big man.

    people of all nbadraft. as much as im a die hard knicks fan, lebron james is not comming to NY. however i use to be 80 percent sure that he wasnt now im 50/50 because just the other day he was looking at 12.5 million dollar appt. in nyc. ALSO my father said he thinks lebron is comming to NYC. listen, im the biggest knicks fan ever imo and i obviously would LOVE lebron in ny, but i have a bet riding on this! my dad also pointed out to me that they showed lebron numbers… how much he would make in his life if he chose the following: chi about 600 million, miami about 500 million, clevland, maybe 300-400 million BUT IN NY THE GUY WOULD END UP WITH 1-2 BILLION DOLLARS! that is unheard of. only woods probably has/had that money or was in that direction aleast

    Right now, I think it’s a wait and see but I get that feeling too but I wanna wait and see.

    It’s a hour long. He’s gonna do some stuff before picking his team. We could probably pick a team pretty much by his talking. He’s gonna say something that gives us a lean IMO.

    to some degree I understand why he is holding a press conference. I wouldn’t be surprise if he does the hat thing. After all he never went to college and I guess this would be like a similar thing to it.

    What if he picks Miami and Wade pulls an Elton Brand and signs somewhere else with Bosh.

    That would be the most fitting end to all of this nonsense and a great end to Wade’s documentary which then could be called….”The Summer I punked LeBron”

    how is what i say considered knicks hating?

    “sergio is a backup pg at best”

    “the knicks dont play defense”

    “lebron wont go to the knicks”

    yeah all those statements are hating….theres a difference between hating and stateing facts.

    if i said gallo is worst then darko that would be hating

    oh yeah another statement

    “darko hasnt done much on any team what makes you think hes gonna be a starter for the knicks”

    when you say things like someones a hater make sure you have proof or you just look like youre talking out of youre a$$

    Tezo was right. LeBron really is acting like he wants to simulate the recruiting experience that most of his peers had, even if, in comparison, the period is much shorter and there’s much more at stake.

      thats true..he may very well be murdered. But on the other hand, if he doesnt want to tip his hand..wherelse would he do it? If it leaked he was going to do it in Chicago..I think we all would know who hes choosing…Plus, why does he need an hour long special just to say hes resigning with the Cavs? THis dude is a drama queen.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he went to the Nets… he and Jay-Z have that bromance thing going on and a coach who knows how to get to the finals. Lopez is what Bron has wanted all along. But really, I’m beyond caring anymore. Wherever he goes, so long as he doesn’t bring Wade with him I don’t mind. Also, I hope he stays the hell away from Chicago, let D-Rose build his own legacy.

    For the record I am a Knicks fan, but I say Cleveland, New York, New Jersey in that order.

    Yes he is an attention whore, but he seems like a down to earth guy. I would say his heart is in Cleveland, but if and I think its a big if…if he’s all about the $$$$, he’ll be a Knick. This is going to be very interesting, I don’t think I have ever seen one free agent hold the entire market by the nuts like this. It would be funny if he said the Clippers.

    Cavs, Bulls or Knicks pick one
    If he goes to the Nets I’ll be surprised and the Clippers they don’t have much of a shot but they have a lot of talent.
    Staying with the Cavs not sure why but thats what reports have him leaning towards.

    If lebron comes to Ny, they still need some pieces, who do you see them getting?
    i say they sign and trade for Lee and curry and picks for Ellis and Biendrens, ive been saying it for a while now but i just think hes perfect for this system,
    then they sign Mike Miller,and Brad Miller and there Lineup is
    Ellis/Douglas
    Miller/Chandler
    Lebron/ Gallo (you can also move Galo to the PF bc he is 6’10, idk what dantoni would do)
    Amare
    Biendrens/ Miller

    What do you think about that? sounds like a championship to me!
