    Lebron Will Not End Up With The Lakers or The Bulls

    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.

    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.

    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 clippers

    "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!

    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?

    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.

    Huh? LeBron is one of the most versatile defenders in the world. He's not gonna struggle with Thibs' shemes.

    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 game

    No chance of this happening.

    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.

    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.

    Jordans shadow is cast over the entire league, not just Chicago. Every comparison is against him. Playing in Chicago won't be any different

    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.
