Ok so let me start by saying I think anyone with a brain knows Lebron James is not returning to Cleveland. There is just ZERO reason for him to still be unsigned if he in anyway had any intentions of returning. PERIOD. I asked Alan Hahn on twitter to gimmy one reason why Lebron would still be unsigned if he was going to return he responded "Leverage"... are you kidding me??? Like Lebron really needs to LEVERAGE a max deal from Cleveland. LOL.

I'd like to see one person debate with a GOOD argument why Lebron would still be unsigned if he was planning on staying.

With that said, its a matter of WHERE is he going? New York and Brooklyn are the 2 main options of course.. With Miami a distant 3rd.

this interview with Jay-Z and Stephen A Smith made me actually jump out of my seat in happiness because it shows, IMO that Jay-Z knows there is a real strong possibility he will end up in Orange and Blue.

The part im talking about is literally the last thing he says in the interview.

"I WOULD HAvE TO"

let it load and go to 18:10 if u wanna skip and go to the Lebron talk

I guess you guys missed this article in the Post today:

LeBron a Knick? Mom says no

Knick fans who are counting on LeBron James to join the hapless team after his contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers expires next year had better have a Plan B.

The hoops star's mother, Gloria, told Page Six it's not happening. "He's a hometown boy," she said. LeBron grew up in Akron, Ohio, but his home now is Cleveland.

The Jameses were at the Monkey Bar for the book party Graydon Carter threw for "Shooting Stars" (Penguin Press), the story of LeBron's team at St. Vincent-St. Mary HS and their coach, Dru Joyce II.

What, you callin' his momma a liar?

His mom's telling him to stay home? We're finished!

Maybe he is looking for something more then a max deal like future ownership

Im sure his entourage, including Gloria has been instructed to say nothing, but if you must just say he is staying. Better to say that than have to retract any statement.

One thing is that Lebron is branding Lebron. Any bit of news regarding anyting is free advertising so they will leverage that also.

Lebron Mania will sweep the nation this season. Every stop he will be asked and get press just on that subject alone. That kind of exposure would cost millions upon millions if you had to buy that kind of exposure.

Jay Z even talking about does it also!

I don't see how you build an arena in 12 mos as Jay Z states but if they can get by 2011 That would be somthing.

Lebron is Brooklyn? ITs very doable!

Did you always listen to your mom?
