lebron james leaves the cavaliers again, this time for los angeles.

money goes where money is.

4 years - 154 million dollar$...not counting playoffs, that is about $500,000.00 per game.

and his son will play high school basketball in the los angeles area, at whatever the best school is, because they are probably going to get a new gym and state of the art facilities.

i wonder if they will take the big mural off the wall in downtown cleveland tonight, rather than tomorrow.

Can't say say I'm surprised. He's chasing the championship like Kevin Durant did, going to OAK. I'm sure if he has to face The Warriors again he wants more firepower to back him up.

He gave his all to Cleveland. Busted his tail with limited talent around him this year. Let’s face it — that weasel Dan Gilbert made his bed on this one. It’s a miracle Lebron came back at all while he still owned the team.

1 - his supporting cast in L.A. just might be weaker than one he had in cleveland. and now he has to beat the warriors just to get to the finals. i fear lebron james may never see another NBA finals with his age and with what he has to work with.

2 - dan gilbert is a true piece of shit in every sense of the word. he didn't want to pay to get lebron hep and let irving go. he has ruined a thriving casino in downtown cleveland with his greed and total inability to run a casino. he has driven what caesars built into the ground in a mere 2 years.

3 - the cave will languish in the bottom of the NBA until gilbert sells the team.....lots of tickets sold for the next couple of years by lebron, don;t think for second he won;t milk it dry.

That LeBron took that sad-ass team to the finals last year is amazing.

Yes, money talks but he earned it.

I'm no fan, but LA are on the rise and when they get the other big names it will bring Showtime back to LA.

I also know it will bring a huge spotlight on their every move and with it arguing, egos and dissent.

Screw 'em all.

The 76ers will get someone who is a better fit here in Philly and he was never coming here anyway.

The thing is with the Lakers are now over the cap and really can't sign anyone else. In fact, they may have to get rid of some players.

Well at least it took a legendary performance by an all-time great to win it. Sixers will be back.

Rarely watch basketball these days but turned on tonight’s game waiting for the 11 O’clock news and notice neither team wears a uniform that has the team name or city. The Town vs The North??

Those are special "city edition" jerseys they only wear sometimes. Since Canada has only one team, TOR gets "the North". Portland is "Rip City", Charlotte "Buzz City", Chicago just has 4 stars on theirs, no text, and other teams just have special colors/designs of their usual names.

Sounds like a pitch for additional jersey sales.

So if the Knicks ever made it to the Finals, they’d be Gotham? I hate marketing nonsense.

It's a Bay Area thing. People in San Francisco call it "The City," so people across the bay started referring to themselves as "the Town."

They won't. ;) But if they did, no, they would not. This is the Knicks city jersey:

Now that's more like it! Love to see the New York and the colors.

Rumors here in NY is they will try and entice Durant here and that would change everything.
