The LeBron James Thread

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

Lets say LeBron does come to Chicago...will the Bulls waive that headband rule like they did for Ben Wallace? It would be a fail of epic proportions if LeBron decided not to come to Chicago due to our headband policy

I don't blame LeBron for wanting to wear the headband though...he has a five-head

Still don't understand why this rule is enforced since it was Skiles who enforced it in the first place and he's been gone for over two years.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

And neither are the Knicks, so what's your point?

I still don't get why Skiles started it in the first place. Sweat in your eyes sucks, I recently played some ball despite not having my headband and it looked like I'd been smoking for a week straight (my eyes being so red from sweat getting in there of course).

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

You keep talking about this franchise prestige and when it's comes down to where Lebron is going, franchise prestige means nothing. Lebron is not going to care who played for the Knicks in the 60's,70's,80's or 90's. Lebron doesn't care who played for the Bulls during that time either.

Lebron cares about two things:
1)Who's playing for these teams now
2)Who gives him the best chance of winning the championship now.

So you talking about the Bulls were nothing before and after the Jordan era has nothing to do with LeBron's decision.

So I ask again, what's your point?

This.


I only say this, I hope he becomes a Knick. I'd like to see NY become relevant again. Not the sorry arse pathetic team and perennial losers they are now lol.

BTW, this whole Bulls / Knicks history thing. Who really cares? Outside of the few people on this board arguing about it.

I like both teams, but the Bulls do have a richer and more relevant history of the two though. (in my eyes fwiw)

I'd like to see a Lakers / Celtics rematch at the end of next year though, but it may not happen. I'll watch the east a little next season.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

About this Bulls/Knicks "prestige" nonsense:

James has not given any indication which way he's leaning. He has spent his entire career with the Cavs, who were knocked out of the playoffs in the second round by Boston. James has said winning is the most important factor in choosing his next team.

If LeBron leaves, he's basically punishing the Cavs for trying to win. And he could've helped things by committing last offseason. Trevor Ariza would've signed, but LeBron wouldn't commit. Ariza would've been a big upgrade over Anthony Parker.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

they lost in six, at least they made the ECF and that year does hold up it was in the last ten years. fact of the matter is the knicks were in the finals more recently then the bulls have lol

Ya'll have had ONE winning season in the last 10 years. Ya'll have been turrible while the Bulls have at least shown signs of actually being good the last 10 years.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

Explain.

Does anybody really need to explain who's been more relevant(or who's RECENTLY MATTERED) of the two teams? LOL

[ExtremeGamer]

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

If he does go to the Bulls, are they going to spend the money and be comfortable spenidng it? Especially if the rumors of Bosh joining him are true.

Rose will need to be re-signed in another year to a max deal. Noah will command a lot of money as well. So you'll then have 4 massive contracts on that team.

[ProfessaPackMan]

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

I was just getting ready to mention that too EG LOL.

Does the cap increase the next year as well, because like you said Rose is eventually going to get a big money type deal and the same maybe could be said for Noah?
