It is only a disappointment if you think he is coming here.

A guy on realgm who claims to have some inside sources says he is hearing LeBron is leaning toward NY. He claims to have broken several things early, Tim Thomas trade, Isiah/Marbury fight. My guess is it is nothing more than speculation but I am hoping he is right.

you know Kobe did this same thing when he was 25. He pulled the diva act. The thing thats making this one worse is Wade, Bosh and all the other guys fueling it as well.

LBJ is 25 and likes being a movie star. He's got the media eating his **** just for a chance to bury their nose in his ass. Good for him. He should enjoy it and promote his brand. Who cares? If it bothers you tune out.

Not for nothing, but this would be the biggest press conference in NY sports history. Name a bigger one

Yup. Can you imagine how much fun those Cleveland fans are having right now?

I wanted Carmelo anyway.

Me too - although it would be nice to have both.

to me - a team of lebron/melo/amare makes zero basketball sense.

uh, how? reminds me of the lakers in the 80's with magic, kareem and worthy. it makes perfect sense.

Lebron has the skill set to play that role if he wanted to. His rookie yr, Silas had him running the point. I think at some point, Lebron would love to try and average a triple double for a season and with that team it would be possible.

trusting anything ESPN reports at this point? don't.

don't let yourself get played, guys.

lebron is not coming. ESPN will leak enough tidbits to keep our hopes up and have us tune in. but he's not coming.

don't get played by ESPN. don't watch. i think i'm going to take a break from all this and check in where he signs on friday.

Any word on where it's gonna be held? Still a big deal imo...If it's held in Akron, he's going back to Cleveland.

I love how everything's supposedly done as far as ESPN goes but we haven't heard where it's gonna be yet..

The drama is so over the top already..

Melo is getting married and LeBron and Amare are going to be there.

LBJ has point forward skills. One of the (little) things that makes getting him so exciting is I think having a point forward type like Lebron lets you start Douglas at PG. Heck.. we wont have any money left so it will be his job to lose. I think he will kick ass surrounded by Amare, Gallo and Lebron.

Inside Sources

My second cousins niece drives a pizza delivery for Dominoes and happened to drop a pie with extra pepperoni and green pepper over at the Lebron James limo drivers brother-in-laws apartment

She sez Lebron is signing with the Bulls

The Lebron announcement would have been more entertaining on The Late Show with David Letterman Show. Bron could have come onstage dressed as Hanibal, Patton or Ghengis Khan

Hey, at least it's more fun than watching the oil volcano in The Gulf of Mexico

SASmith just said it won't be done in Ohio... Somewhere on the East Coast, but couldn't say where exactly.

He's on ESPN radio now, still believes Miami is the place. Although admits the NY rumor is picking up steam.

Can you imagine if the camera's turn on and Wade and Bosh are standing beside him?
