Thursday,  July 8th, 2010 is finally here. Any last minute predictions on where Lebron signs?

The possibilities are still wide open but it's time to stand tall and make a prediction:

Lebron James will announce tomorrow that he is joining Bosh and Wade in Miami.

Though I'm saying this more out of hope than anything, I'll say Cleveland.

I'm hoping it's New York.

I'd love to see LeBron play for Mike D'Antoni. Put Amare at the five, Bron at the four, Gallo at the three, Chandler at the two. Run and gun basketball. It would be beautiful basketball and in NY, with all the media attention they'd receive, it would be just fantastic. Very exciting.

New york so he can play with Amare. I'm guessing Lebron and Wade just couldn't put their ego's aside to play with each other. There's no chance he's going to Miami-- that's Wade's team... and I don't really see a great opportunity in Chicago now that there's no Wade or Bosh. Cleveland doesn't have the pieces he wants of young talent and the Nets have nobody on their team.

I'm hoping it's New York.

No defense, ...= no championship. But I'll give you that it would sell tickets and make it fun to watch.

Hopefully about 90 miles from Key West playing for the Cuban National Team.

Lebron will stay in Cleveland. All of this media circus has been in vain because 'The bron' stays put.

I honestly have no idea, but I'm going to say the Knicks.

Lebron is in a no win situation. If he stays in Cleveland he'll tick off tons of fans in several of the major markets. Both teams in NYC. LA fans who would have liked to see a Clips/Bron vs Lakers/kobe rivalry, Miami, Chicago

If he goes it'll bother a lot of people everywhere, especially if he gangs up with all stars to create an all-star cartel and he'll be persona non grata in his own home town. He'll definitely have to get his family out of there 10 minutes after he makes his announcement.

His team kept everyone in suspense till the last minute and acted as though it's the signing of the century.

If he wins he'll hurt his brand. Jordan won 6 and most people think he should have 8. Russell had more. With a lineup like that he'll need 11 or so for people to think of him as a great champ rather than a guy who couldn't deliver when given the opportunity.

Especially considering the way he seemed to give up against US.

If he stays in Cleveland he might not win and then he becomes Barkley II.

He should stay in Cleveland. Bringing one banner there is like 7 in any other town and it would be seen as loyalty and fighting an uphill battle. He'll have lots of chances. Melo would love to play with him next year. He could get a miracle in the draft. Jermaine ONeal might be waiting to see what he'll do.

And think of this...what if he somehow goes to Miami and STILL doesn't win a ring? Then he becomes the loser of the century and the Ewing theory is renamed the Lebron FACT!

I still say Cleveland and I'm willing to bet TPs on it (although I don't have many left due to the Finals).
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19
