Is LeBron James Preparing to Leave?

March 2, 2010 by

Rumors have been flying for at least two years now that LeBron James will be leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers after this season when he becomes a free agent. Well, King James filed paperwork yesterday to change his jersey number from 23 to 6 starting next season and it has all the conspiracy theorists in a tizzy. This news surfaced on the same day the Cavaliers played the Knicks for the final time this year and only a few months before free agency begins. If you plan on going somewhere else you might as well start anew with a completely different number ala Michael Jordan, right? In New Jersey Courtney Lee currently rolls with #6, but no one on the New York Knickerbockers has that number. Hmmm.

Let me play devils advocate here for just a second. LeBron idolizes Michael and stated earlier this season that no player should wear #23 and went on to say Jordan should be the new NBA logo. So might this be the reason for the change in his jersey number? Also, LeBron owns a $25 million dollar pad in Akron that he wouldn’t be selling anytime soon, if ever, should he choose to leave. And finally, LeBron would get paid more by the Cavs than any other NBA team could offer and he actually does seem to be someone who leans towards the ‘home is where the heart is’ mantra. In my humble opinion LeBron isn’t going anywhere and all the speculation is just media fodder.

I do see one small possibility that could lead to LeBron leaving town and it will make things really tricky if it does happen. Should LeBron win the NBA Finals this year he very well might feel like his work is done in Cleveland and move on to a different team. So to all you Cav fans do you want to win it all this year or do you want to keep LeBron? I think I know the answer to that question, but I will leave it at that for now!

Jordan Buys Bobcats

February 27, 2010 by

Michael ‘Air’ Jordan has reached an agreement to be the new owner of the Charlotte Bobcats. BET founder and current owner Bob Johnson of the Bobcats announced earlier this morning that he would sell the organization to Jordan. It was only a couple of weeks ago that speculation began on the sale of the team so negotiations progressed very quickly. One of the main reasons the deal was done so fast is due to lack of interest from other parties. George Postolos president of the Houston Rockets was speculated as the only other person of note interested in purchasing the team. Jordan has his work cut out for him considering the Bobcats have not won more than 32 games in their first four seasons, but they are currently in ninth place in the Eastern Conference so things could be looking up.

Potential #1 Seeds

February 22, 2010 by

I think it’s safe to say that Kansas and Kentucky are destined to be number one seeds in the 2010 NCAA tournament barring a complete meltdown in the next couple of weeks. The third top seed should end up being Syracuse because they have looked like one of the top four teams in the country all year. The Orange has Nova in the Carrier Dome this coming Saturday and they do have to play in Louisville for the last game of the regular season so it’s up to them to lock it up. Now, who will get the last spot? Nova had this spot right in their grasp before last week, but two losses in a row have us looking elsewhere. In the end it will probably be Duke because they have won 6 in a row and should win out unless they lose at Maryland next week. If Duke does stumble then Purdue is next most logical team with Nova, Kansas State, West Virginia and Ohio State waiting in the wings. Three weeks from now we will know for sure and the anticipation seems to build with every passing day.
