So we all know that July 1st will change the NBA forever. Lebron James becomes a free agent and rumors of where he will end up have been circling furiously. New York, Miami, New Jersey and Chicago are the teams being mentioned as potentially getting James. Draft decisions and trades were obviously made to make salary cap space for James and other free agents. But will Lebron really leave Cleveland? He should! Clearly Cleveland is not cutting it – at least if he is planning on getting a ring before retirement. If it’s about the money and winning titles, Lebron is off to Miami or Chicago. If its about potential and glory, NYC is a masterpiece ready to be molded. It all depends on what he wants.
NYC not only has the money to recruit Lebron, but can also afford to acquire other superstars in the free agent class. The Knicks can improve their team and win championships, but how long will that take though? In Chicago he already has Rose and Noah, and teaming up with them could mean success in years to come. In all honesty, the Knicks have been one of the worst teams in the NBA for the past few years, what will it take to turn them into champions?
New York City is doing everything in its power to bring Lebron to the Big Apple. Can he really resist? Rumors that he has toured an apartment in the Time Warner Center have New Yorkers hopeful. As Donald Trump said himself “ I can tell you, LeBron, there is only one New York." A whole “C’mon Lebron” campaign is in full effect in the concrete jungle. I wonder if Jay-z will play a hand in the swaying of Lebron. He gives a little hint to what his opinion is on David Letterman. I agree with Letterman --- his chances of winning with the Nets or the Knicks are small at the moment. If he was to be recruited to one of those teams, the bandwagon fans will be way too much to bear.
Who knows where Lebron will end up, what his motives are, and what team can help him get him the ring. One thing is certain though, the NBA revolves around Lebron James. If on draft night, men were just pawns in the Lebron recruitment game, you have to wonder what else is being done to bring the King to his rightful throne.

This is great and I totally agree with the points that you make.. especially since NYC Knicks need someone like Lebron to finally achieve a championship.. It's also crazy how a campaign was made just to persuade him and others as to why he should be in the Knicks..New Yorkers go hard and Lebron would fit right in with the drive we New Yorkers have. Now it's all up to him to chose wisely. Lol
