Because they are big media markets, you will hear the reports everyday but he will not play for either of those franchises. Nobody wants to play with Kobe and nobody wants to play in the shadow of MJ.

Don't know yet.Originally posted by d2betsComment -
He outta go home and try win for Cleveland....
But I think he will stay in Miami....
I do hope he plays somewhere besides south beach....but just don't see it happening....
The opt out is a pay me more tacticComment -
Definitely not Lakers. He'll play for the Microsoft Clippers before he signs with The Buss.
But I could see the Bulls. Only because I believe they could more easily free up the salaries.Comment -
Yes nobody wants to play with Kobe as he is a ball hog like melo
The odds are still in favor of Miami right now and if not Miami it's Cleveland or the clippersComment -
"As for James, the four-time most valuable player openly has talked about how impressed he was with the Bulls' pitch from 2010."
building his brand image with a big market team is a main concern, not "playing in the shadows." Bulls are internationally known team, contenders with james, perfect fit. James will be a Bull wooo!Comment -
He will NEVER play for Gilbert againOriginally posted by z-doggieComment -

we don't want him in Chicago,too many players stans around and watch him instead of trying o get open.and he wont adust to thibedou defensive schemesComment -
He has said that the one thing that he wants that he hasn't achieved is 'Defensive Player of the Year'
Where better to get that than Chicago?Comment -
Speak for yourself bro, anyone would want james. He's the best player in the game, ludicrous to think he won't fit in anywhere.Originally posted by oilerComment -
It's actually a pay me less tacticOriginally posted by z-doggie

Huh? LeBron is one of the most versatile defenders in the world. He's not gonna struggle with Thibs' shemes.Originally posted by oilerComment -
Because Kobe will pout, cry, bitch and moan if he is not the 'go to' guy, and he has this need to score 24 a gameOriginally posted by Sledge187Comment -
No chance of this happening.Originally posted by Kermit
Lebron already has people from Cleveland hating him.
Leaving Miami would make everyone in South Beach hating him.
And if he were to play with Kevin Love, a good core of his black fans would consider him a sellout for playing with the white boy.
It's all about marketing. Can't alienate your entire fan base.Comment -
He should come to Raptors.Comment -
How many LeBron threads do we need?
Way to state the obvious OP, you can probably get odds better than +500 on LeBron going to either of those teams.
Can't wait to make a thread about LeBron not going to the Suns.Comment -
Jordans shadow is cast over the entire league, not just Chicago. Every comparison is against him. Playing in Chicago won't be any differentComment -
But wouldn't winning in Chicago be the best way to stick it to Jordan now in Charlotte? He knows he could win with Thibs. Still think it's unlikely, but not impossible that he goes to Chicago.Comment
