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

Call me crazy, but I think Clippers would be a decent spot for him.

You're not crazy, the Clippers would be an awesome fit for him.

David Geffen (if he does buy 51%) & the Clippers trying like most teams I'm sure. I would like to see him go to the Knicks myself.

I'm not saying they've won championships but if LeBron is fed up with not having anybody show their faces in the postseason then getting together with people who actually show heart, fight and the ability to be themselves under the pressure of the playoffs as opposed to opening yourself up to possibly more of the same makes sense. The Bulls have lost in the first round of the playoffs because they don't have the firepower to get past the elite teams, not because the guys who are supposed to be playmakers and stars of their team have decided to start summer break early is my point.

If I'm LeBron and I've given Cleveland a try and all we can do is dominate the regular season and then have everyone but me go fishing at the end of April, why would I go somewhere that I have no idea whether the guys that are there are going to do the same thing or not and pass up on a place that I've seen first hand that the guys are gonna fight their balls off til the very end whether they have a realistic chance of winning or not? I'm not trying to knock NY, NJ or even Cleveland, but I'm trying to show why Chicago isn't some ridiculous choice and makes no sense as I've seen it described here a time or two.

Because if he leaves, he will never repair his image in North east Ohio.

And if we know one thing, it's that his image is the most important thing to him.

Why is it when the case is made for LeBron staying in Cleveland then the weakness of the new East is brought up for why Cleveland won't go through the same struggles they always do, yet the Bulls with LeBron somehow have no chance in that same weak new East?
So you're saying he should take Rose and Noah, who have never won a single playoff series in their life but according to you have somehow "proven" their postseason worth, over greater talent?

The whole time he's been in Cleveland he has flirted with NY, and talked about the summer of 2010.
