LeBron has a future. Where? New York? New Jersey? Los Angeles? Cleveland?

I think he's done in Cleveland. Those last two games remind me of Seth Curry's last month here.

Although New York is the most obvious choice, they dont have a winning program. LeBron won't win any championships acting as the lifeline of a basketball team.

I absolutely thought the same thing about those 2 games by LeBron and the way Seth looked and played in his last game for us against JMU. Like he had already moved on.

I know he had 9 TO's, but the man had a triple/double in that last game. 29/19/10. I know what you guys mean though. He seemed extremely frustrated in game 6 with his teammates... Especially Antwan Jamison.... the dude played so bad, he didn't look like he could even compete with HS ball players. If LBJ is smart, he'll look for a team that will win (not have the potential to contend, but have the talent to actually win) the championship. If he chases the money to NY, then he'll but just another money hungry shmuck. The guy wants a ring, so if Cleveland is smart, they'll get better support for him so he will want to stick around. They tried with Shaq and Jamison, but let's be real... Shaq is crazy old, and Jamison was inconsistent.

He quit on his team. The next time I hear a MJ/LBJ comparison that's all I need to say and the conversation is over...1 MJ never would have lost in game 5 like that (quitting and being passive) 2. a minute to play and only down 8 and they all stand there giving up. He's not half the man MJ was.

Oh I know...but you know that's the small talk anyone who doesnt follow basketball to closely wants to have

I think its funny the people in New York think that getting LeBron will be the answer to their problems..

The talk is always is the Cavs don't have enough around LeBron to win....thats crap and just an excuse the media tries to pass on as truth so LeBron's status doesn't change as the "greatest player in the game"...He has plenty of talent in Cleveland to win, he just doesn't know how to lead a team to win...I am going to use an example from last season to kind of paint the picture of what LeBron is all about...After he lost the East finals to the magic last year and walked off the court, not saying anything to anybody...now I do not look down on him at all for not talking to anybody...but compare this to what Jameer Nelson and Dwight Howard did after they lost to the Lakers in the finals...they sat in their chairs courtside and just watched kobe and the lakers celebrate...there is video of this and they looked pained sitting there but I am convinced by doing this it made them even more hungry which is one of the many reasons they are so focused right now (winning 27 of their last 30)...also the 2 leaders of the Magic used that to be better leaders for this team and to get the best out of their teammates...

Never have I heard of LeBron going out of his way to be a good teammate or doing things differently to help is team off the court...he is not a good leader and until he learns to have some heart he will continue to lose and whatever city he ends up in will be very disappointed for years to come....

He is going to New Jersey... he has said it before and i think he is committed to going there... He and Jay-Z are super tight and when Jay buys out New Jersey and moves them to Brooklyn he then will get the best of both worlds

The Nets have a new owner that makes Jay-z's money look like pennies

Plus there's no way Calipari could coach the Nets and I am convinced he's going to be part of the deal wherever Lebron goes. They've got a weird relationship.

i'll go with chicago or miami - adding lebron to either one of those teams makes them a championship caliber squad. and if he goes to miami, miami will have the money to make a run at another one of the big name free agents like chris bosh. nets are a choice, but i think they just suck too much for him to want to go there.

LBJ in Chicago would make me watch the NBA again. I've been out since Jordan retired (for the second time).

I love the fact that this pretty much means it's going to hit the fan soon at KY....every time he starts to look for a job and then leaves you loooooooook out, the hammer is about to drop.

So, is DC an interesting option for bronbron now that they will own John Wall for a few years?

They have the cap room to make a run at some players but really cant see him going there.

I think they're looking for a reason to get rid of Arenas and that would be a great one.
