Murray from San Antonio and Kanter from New York also recruiting Lebron now.

It's funny because in the betting odds as to where Lebron will go, Boston is actually in almost all of them in the Top-5 (on the lower end around 4-5, as expected, but still on it). Favorites are PHI, HOU and LAL (if he leaves CLE of course). Miami dark horse. San Antonio another possibility.

Curry took more shots in game 4 than Love and LeBron combined.

Lebron probably is the MVP of the complete-full-playoffs, but no way is he the MVP of the finals.  Your team can't get swept and you be the MVP, that is just impossible.

doubt it unless he colludes with Paul and George to join.   And even then, don't forget the pressure/comparison to Kobe/Shaq ...

There is also a chance he joins the Rockets or 76ers

The Rockets would need to trade Anderson (very difficult) ....then resign Paul and Lebron without losing Gordon

76ers might be too inexperienced for Lebron


Celtics would be a nice destination.... just can't see it work without doing some major tweaks

there needs to be a hall of fame for object punchers that resulted in injury

Stoudemire, Smart, James
