The Decision

I have been reading all the news today about where Lebron James will end up.  Some say Miami, New Jersey, New York, or stay in Cleveland.  Here is my opinion:

Miami:  I don't think so.  Wade and Bosch both said they are going to Miami.  If James was going, why was he not part of that announcment.  James was trying to recruit Bosch to come to Cleveland, he refused.  It would be a real bitch move to then follow Bosch to Miami in Wade's house.

New York:  Possibly but they already signed Stoudimire (spelling) for a max deal.  They have enough for another max deal but wont win any rings with King James and Stoudimire.

New Jersey:  No.  They do not have the talent.

Cleveland:  I think James will be staying in Cleveland.  He talks about the debacle of Jose Mesa, the drive, the fumble yadda yadda yadda.  How could he think of moving anywhere.  I also think the Bosch sort of snubbed him by not coming to Cleveland (btw Bosch is an idiot for leaving 30 mill on the table).  James has roots here and has a passion for his town.  You cant be King of Akron if you are in NYC.  Cleveland is the only place James should be thinking, if he is thinking long term.  His brand, his image, his fans!  I know his concern is signing a 6 year deal then having bad knees and never getting a ring by age 31.  Quite frankly, this can happen anywhere.  There is no gurantee that he will ring any rings in Miami or any other team.  Sports is funny like that.  You can sign the biggest contract of your life but if you blow out your knee, you're done.

Really at the end of the day life will go on where ever James lands.  Mr. Gilbert will then be determined as ever to bring a Championship to Cleveland.
