No disrespect to anyone here from Cleveland, but the Cavaliers will never win anything. Lebron has a decision - he can do a Barkley and show loyalty to his team and win nothing, or do a Garnett and leave to join a team with a future (Again, Nets) That's the situation.
Lebron James???
- Thread starter Memphis fan
- Start date

I'm not sure how much Lebron would want to go to Chicago. The endless (unfavourable when he doesn't win the championship) comparisons to Michael Jordan might drive him insane. I'm not sure a player of his caliber would want to play on a team where he would be in the shadow of a former player.
What... do you think Cleveland's cool???
I keep hearing about Lebron not wanting to come to Chicago because he wouldn't want to play under Michael Jordan's shadow. What shadow? MJ has been gone for twelve years.

In a way, it's still his team though. Ask anyone about the Chicago Bulls and the first thing they'll think of is MJ. It's the same in the NHL with the Oilers - even though Gretzky's been gone for twenty years, the years with him on the team are so iconic that they are the definite years for the team. As a Bull, Lebron would always be in MJ's shadow unless he managed to win seven championships. Until then, every fan would just compare him unfavourably to MJ.
Da Bulls Pre-Jordan are not memorabull.
LeBron to Miami to roll with DWade would be UNBELIEVABULL
Joachim Noah is expendabull :tongue:
The pressure on LeBron to live up to MJ's legacy in Chicago would be unmeasureabull
The hotness factor of snatch that Miami has over Chicago is undebatabull

:thefingeri cant believe how much talk this has become. lebron isnt going to be going anywhere. cleveland can offer him the most money, the cavs owner has done nothing but spoil him, and lebron put in his paper work in the league to change his number to 6 which he only needed to do if he plays with the cavs. with that being said, lebron just built a rediculously sized mansion just out of the city of akron. trust me when i say, this guy is staying in cleveland.
The Grasshopper
was here
If he wants to learn how to win he'd go to LA-LA-Land and learn from the best. :2 cents:
Good point. Jordan had a tough time getting endorsements in Chicago.
And Lebron is having trouble getting endorsements in Cleveland right now.
If he was smart and really wanted to win, and that was what mattered most to him, he would take a quarter to half the money he will probably be able to get and go to a stacked team that can then take the saving in salary he will give them to get even more stacked and make the team virtually unstoppable. Of course he's not going to do that.
To neg rep or not to neg rep that is the question....

I just got to say after watching that video that I have to give kudos to Cleveland for at least trying to convince him to stay. Same with Miami and Wade. Its good that fans are trying to convice them to stay. It's not like that up here in Canada. Every Raptors fan claims that they want Bosh to stay, but there is nothing like this up here. We aren't even trying to keep him.
hopefully miami
