so

who thinks LeBron will take the deal in chicago?

can chicago ever recover its former glory?

if he comes with the few other new additions it could be an exciting year?

MF I think it will be hard for Lebron in chicago because he will always be in Jordan shadow until he wins mor championships that Jordan did and that is alot of presure.Also the bulls front office does not like paying the luxary tax so when players on the team are free agents the will not sign them back.

theyve got some hot new kids but my son says lebron will never come here

i dont know...many athletes have come here because fans here are like no other
i lived in new york and l.a. there is no sports crazy town like chicago

i dont think jordans shadow even exists anymore really des
but somehow i think lebrons can write his own ticket where he is at and wont bother.

we will know soon i suppose

i cant wait for bball to start

hockey and basketball yes indeedy

des i guess thats true-i just reread your post

maybe as fans we dont see jordans shadow anymore but yeah a player might feel that way...

if being measured that way i wouldnt be interested either but chicago needs the glory and the money a winning team brings

id love the chance to see him play personally

he is nothing like mike

he is -well, - i dunno- humble power
what the japanese call soft power

he just does his thing you know?

it's unlikely lebron will end up with the knicks. miami has the best shot and the nets are trying to get him too. i would like to see my Celtics get him but probably no chance for that. they were 4 minutes from banner number 18 this year but old age caught up with them. they need to get younger and more athletic. maybe a sign and trade with Rondo and Sheed for Lebron. Pierce is opting out of his contract. On a good note Doc is coming back as coach next year.

don't know if you have been following the blackhawks MF but they are having a fire sale trading 2 of their key players to stay under the cap. just goes to show at the end of the day it's a business.

the really great ones make the players around them better. jordan did it, Bird, Magic, etc. the jury is still out on whether Lebron can do that.

I am a Cavs fan having lived in northeast Ohio up until 5 years ago. I watched LeBron play in high school and would like to see him stick around.

He is fun to watch. But quite honestly I think it would be in his best interest to go else where so he has a chance at a championship.

Quite frankly I think Cleveland pro sports teams are cursed and he would never win a title here. dunno
