    LeBron Says KILL off Minnesota and New Jersey in the NBA
    Sure, why not? The hell with these minor-league franchises! Why should New Jersey even have an NBA team, for God's sake???!!

    This won't make LeBron James popular at the next players' union meeting, but Thursday he suggested the NBA would be more entertaining if there was contraction of teams.

        They would never contract in the NBA, for whatever reason they like having a watered down product

          Nah, we need to keep the Clippers to have an eternal measuring stick for NBA failure.

              All of the major sports have too many teams. Can eliminate 2 to 4 teams in each sport. Expansion fees were easy money for the owners, have too many players who have no business being on a NBA, NFL, MLB or NHL team. Players unions would never allow contraction even if it means you have a better product.

                well if you clipped another team; that would lower the amount of players his mom could sleep with!

                      Why does anyone care what LeBron thinks.
                      How about LeShut up.

                        Forget about it being a professional sports league for a second, and just look at it in pure business perspective:

                        The players union doesn't want it.
                        The average and bubble players definitely don't want it.
                        The elite players are divided on it.
                        The owners are divided. (Less revenue sharing from league, but increased competition for playoffs, etc.)
                        The league isn't into admitting defeat. They would rather get new ownership for failing franchises rather than dissolve them.

                        That adds up to a big "Ain't Gonna Happen."

                                I think you need the suck teams as exposure for the good teams. Though I questions whether good teams and players are getting exposure in Sacramento.

                                        Too bad he can't get a career ending injury, blow his in a few years and become LeBum for the rest of his life.

                                          I would respect Bird / Magic / Jordan saying this, but a guy that yet has not won a Championship, should better stay quite and prove the league wrong.

                                                      I agree that the NBA should contract. It is too watered down. Cut the Clippers, Griz, Sac & NJ and the league will improve a lot.

                                                        Some of you guys are ridiculous. You don't care what LeBron says? Uh, he is the best player in the league, why would you not care? Still bitter over what happened in the off-season even though I have no idea why you would be.

                                                        Nets are useless in Jersey but are moving. The Clippers are the only other useless franchise in the league. I wish they would move to Seattle.
