With some viewing the Bulls as the frontrunners to sign LeBron James, multiple league sources tell Chris Sheridan of ESPN that James will have questions about Chicago's roster and future.

"[I]n my conversations over the weekend with several league sources keyed into the maneuverings surrounding the start of free agency July 1," Sheridan writes, "the dialogue consistently circled back to one pertinent point: When LeBron looks at what will surround him on his future team, especially when weighing Chicago vs. New York, he is going to have questions of his own."

Owner Jerry Reinsdorf's track record of being averse to paying the luxury tax and whether he is willing to maintain the large payroll necessary to win multiple championships is the first concern mentioned in Sheridan's story.

The others: The unknown quantity that is new coach Tom Thibodeau, Chicago's present lack of a three-point shooter who can spread the floor around James, whether Derrick Rose can play off the ball, on the wings next to James who often handles and initiates the offense, and the team's relative lack of flexibility to improve next summer compared to the Knicks who are set to have Eddy Curry's $11 million contract come off their books.
