Lebron james signed with Miami

**bulldog08** · 07-07-2010, 10:58 AM

Ok so I was wrong about Bosh not willing to give up 30 million to go to Miami. Hes signing with Miami with Wade. Boshs #1 goal was to play with Lebron. Hes said that over and over. His unwillingness to play in Cleveland though overpowered it and decides to go with Wade. I honestly feel like Lebron is gone from Cleveland now. He tried and tried to get Bosh to come to cleveland with him. Lebrons heart and loyalty is in Cleveland no doubt about it. Loyalty is just in his DNA. He is married to his highschool sweetheart and has never had another girlfriend but her. His highschool teammates/friends are the people who run his businesses and he employs ALL OF THEM. His 62,000 square foot mansion in is Akron. Thats where his heart is. This is a business though and for business reasons he will end up in either New York or Miami unless Cleveland can miraculously pull of the one trade that will keep him in Cleveland and thats for Chris Paul, his best friend. Lebron to Miami will instantly make Miami the favorite to win the Championship. No doubt about that at all. If he stays in Cleveland, he has to go through Orlando, Miami with bosh and wade, Boston with the big three, New york with Amare and Orlando in order to get to the championship. Lebron is a VERY VERY smart person. I think ultimately he will decide in order to win, which is his goal, hes going to have to leave Cleveland. If its to miami, he can go ahead and write up three championships in the next 5 years easily. If he stays in Cleveland, he could be looking at a guy whos 31 with no rings when its said and done. Noone has EVER been able to win it by themself and Lebron knows that. Thats why without a major move by cleveland before tomorrow night, hes gone.
Oh, and Lebron hasnt made up his mind yet from what I have heard and hes putting that deadline and making the announcement tomorrow in order to somehow fire up cleveland to put everything in to get a major trade done. I dont think Lebron even will know unitll tomorrow where he is going and if ANYONE did, there is no doubt it would already be out in the media. If lebron stays though, he will be reveared as one of the most loyal people in history of sports and will be regarded as the guy who did the biggest stand up thing he could and thats stick with the City/team who has been so loyal to him. Staying is the most difficult choice in all of this but is by FAR the most loyal act a person in his position could perform. Leaving is the easy way out, staying is much more difficult and he will be commended highly for that if he somehow does.

Well it was refreshing to see an athelte give up that type of money. I bet LeBron is going to the Heat too. The Cavs have not signed anyone to make the team better and the Nets and Knicks are a couple steps backwards. I guess the Bulls fell from everybodys radar pretty quickly.

I think Bron knows where he's going and has an A,B,C scenarios lined up in the event Cleveland pulls a big trade(which I highly doubt will happen) and moves like the Wade/Bosh before his announcement . If it's a strictly business move, he leaves the Cavs but the emotional side of it and comfort he has in Cleveland has stretched this out.

Miami though joins Orlando and Boston as the favorites to win the east. We'll see if the Cavs are part of this if Bron stays.

Wouldnt suprise me if Lebron pulls a rabbit out of a hat and choses the Knicks either. That would kind make sense. For him to say, "my one two punch with me and Amare will beat miamis one two puch with Bosh and Wade and the C's one two three punch with KG, Pierce and Allen. Wouldnt be totally shocking. Lebron is going to be the MAIN guy wherever he goes though. Miami, New York, Chicago, Cleveland, any of those places will become HIS team and will be the center point of the offense so its really up to him.

Knicks is the smartest move for lebron. Not cavs and not heat.

My money is on the Knicks. Why else would his newsconference be held in Connecticut tomorrow night? Also, for you investors, look at the call option volume for MSG. Either somebody knows something or somebody is taking a big ass risk betting all that money on MSG. I bet it's internal buying from Lebrons crew or people at MSG that know something and want to make some coin on the deal.

He is a big fan of the Uconn Huskies?

He signed a letter of intent to play for them

What are you driving at?You think maybe Lebron got through a few classes on his basketball ability?

With Bosh and Wade in Miami, why wouldn't he be a good fit?

The Knicks aren't just a bad team, they're also a very bad organization. If you're the #1 of your generation, then you know that championships are the only way to validate that mythical title. The Knicks just don't have the basketball know-how to put a title team together.

Personally, I loved the thought of Kobe-Gasol-Artest going up against LeBron-Rose-Noah for the next several titles, so I'm not sure why Chicago fell out of the conversation.

Just like all the one and down college players. I bet they do not attend class when basketball is done.

Reisendorf is a jerk. There is no guarantee he will max Derrick Rose in the future.

The interview in connecticut is because all the proceeds are going to the boys and girls club of america and that happens to be their home office. He originally was going to have it somewhere else but the boys and girls club wished for it to be there.
I dont think at this exact time lebron even knows where he is going 100 percent and if he had, the news would have gotten out there already.

Artest is on the trading block buddy. Lakers are shopping him right now.
