Either that or he score 50 points and the Cavaliers STILL lose
Red nice post.....
Babe, Jackson, and A.Rod all got booed in New York as Yankees, plus Yankee history is on a higher plane.
I live in New York all my life, all my out of state friends & family say, "New York is a nice place to visit (expensive though), but hell-no on living there.".
I dont see Lebron saving a Billion dollars living in New York.
David Lee is 26 yrs old matching Jamison performance, and dont think Lee will not go to Cleveland for the MLE to replace Big-Z & Shaq minutes, or that the Cavs can not make a major trade using Gibson, Mo, West, or Parker with their pick on draft night to keep Lebron.
The idea of getting Lebron is nice.....whats not nice is a Knick-fan talking and writing about Lebron James constantly for 2 years ..... more than the damn Cav-Fans.

Do you think Lee is better than Jamison? In this system (which must be taken into account)- I think its a wash- which means Lee isn't enough as Jamison isn't.
And finally, If Lee's stats and game are improving under D'Ant- why not assume Bosh would be better? That's fair right?
What if LBJ says "yeah I want Bosh" and it costs a max deal- you wouldn't do that for those two? You would pass? I don't think so.
Can you imagine Lee on the Cavs instead of Jamison. When LBJ was deffering to his team- you think Lee would have made a difference in the results compared to Jamison? I don't- thus Lee isn't enough to entice LBJ IMO. If we can keep him AFTER we get 2 maxs or if we can get Parker and 2 max's- Lee should be an after thought IMHO.

UMM New York Fans BOO everyone... Ewing, Mattingly, Arod, Simms, Manning, Burress, it doesn't matter we boo... so if the Clevland fans are the dumbest ever, uhhh, I guess NYC are above them... at least with your logic
I'll field it... Rose, Deng, Noah... also they have Gibson and Heinrick... so Lebron James would come into a situation where the pieces for actually winning are already there... Not a team which will have to build up those pieces. Look, Lebron has sat through years and years of GM's trying to trade and sign free agents to match with him and end up failing... why would he do the same thing in NYC where there talent level isn't half of what it was in Cleveland. From the outside looking in... If I was Lebron, I would see a team who has bungled so much Shyte in the pass, that i would have no faith in them... Be it Drafts or Trades, or Coach hirings, this team has no track record in doing what it takes to make a winner... at least recently. So with that said, I believe thats why Lebron would play for someone else (a loser organization as one would call it ) lol

Did someone say Magic? Must read...
New York didn't boo their only star player in an elimination game, multiple time mvp, who put their franchise on the map, and is considered one of the best if not the best player in the world, after losing or underperforming possibly due to injury.
Whether NY'ers did or not really isn't the issue, it was low and a move by spoiled / mad Cavs fans who don't appreciate what they have.
Exactly. Plus 2 second rounders, plus an "unlikely" playoff bonus, plus an expiring no later than next season EC contract, plus a MLE if needed, plus a renovated / rejuvenated Garden, not to mention the impending lure once we get some quality signed in here...
plus a couple of young up and comers, plus D. Lee's rights coming of an all-star year
and we didn't even get into the dough. You can believe all you want about how signing in NY wont make a monetary difference in this day and age, or LBJ is already a global brand etc...
in one way he would be leaving 30mil on the table OVER the life of the contract if he bounces. But he would (especially if we win) be at the financial, media, and advertising heart of the world in NY, in the most famous arena 41 plus games a year. Stop it.
The "winning" part is comical, that's part of the trickery of the NBA, they have successfully got everyone thinking they have a shot. That it's headed global.
No it isn't. LA and BOS 31 out of the last 50 finals. LA and BOS 25% won out of the last 50 years.
Sprinkle in some CHI 6 (Jordan), Spurs 4 (Duncan), DET 3 and what do you have?
Main market winning? or BOS and LA winning? O know the Wades and MIA's had a shot, but not that. We make the most money, we just didn't spend it right, or else the Knicks had the potential to be right up there.
Well, with Donnie and Co. things have the potential to change in a big way.
So this isn't about convincing LBJ that our team is good right now. It's about
him realizing his full potential by coming aboard, over and above winning can only be realized here at this time like no other.
Wherever he goes, even if he remains, it will be changes and rebuilding of some sort. We already have a coach he endorses. He and Bosh and Wade and many on the Olympic team already discussed sitting down and playing here together.
Everyone is trying to put a team together for James. Only in Ny is that a real option at this time given our financial situation and projection, front office and coach. CHI is just thrown there to make headlines- we all know it makes no sense for multiple reasons.

LeBron would be stupid to pass up this opportunity.
A combination of D'Antoni, Bron and Bosh, never mind the other supporting cast would be formidable for a long time.
add practiaclly an unlimited amount of capital and it could be dangerous for the league if managed correctly.
Make no mistake, the Knicks don't need LBJ anymore than he needs us. But, at this point a merger between the two would be mutually beneficial.
Knicks and their fans just want to be competitive again and make noise in the playoffs- LBJ or not, this will surfice. LBJ wants to win- but obviosly NOT at any cost... the situation has to be right. This summer after losing how he did, with our rejuvination, is the perfect moment to be paired with another legit star...
and room for another down the pipeline. NJ nor CHI can offer that, the coach and certainly not the city. We are (and should be) front runners... f*ck what Brussard or ESPN says!

LeBron Motherf*ckin New York City!
There are so many reasons for LBJ to come to NYC. This is the greatest city in the world with the most knowledgeable, intelligent fans in the world. True, we have our share of d*cks and lame-o's, but that's just a percentage of the millions in the tri-state area. New York City has the best venue in the world to play in, NYC has the greatest restaurants in the world where LBJ will be eating the best food for free, NYC has the hottest women, the total amalgam of people, ethnicities, cultural enlightenment, etc. The best museums, the best parks, the best music and musicians, and on and on. NEW YORK F*CKING CITY! THE KING OF NEW YORK (Christopher Walken in a great movie), NEW YORK NEW YORK (Frank Sinatra sang our praises). NEW YORK CITY is the BEST F*CKING CITY IN THE WHOLE F*CKING WORLD!! That is by far one of the best reasons for LBJ to come here, because to win here is the greatest feeling a pro-athlete can have. You don't think Derek Jeter and the Yanks are going to campaign for LBJ to come here? The GIANTS?!?! THE New New York JETS with LT?? The Mets (oh well)... did I mention the World Champion Yanks, who LBJ loves!?!?! of course I did!! The time is now for LBJ to make a decision that will blow the mind of the entire sports world for years to come!! This is the media capital of the world, this is where the LBJ legacy will become a reality!! LBJ is the best b-ball player on the planet, and he deserves to come to the best city in the world, and bring us a championship! Walsh will do the right thing and line up a solid big man and/or point guard to entice LBJ, just like the Celtdicks did with Ray Allen and Garnett. It can be done, it will be done!! Knicks faithful, have faith!!

Breaking News.... LBJ Rumors
1. ESPN reports: LeBron to work with Eddy Curry this off-season. I just heard this- I haven't checked the validity yet. Any comments?
2. Delonte West and LBJ's Mom. This is just a weird internet rumor- I haven't seen anything concrete yet on this.
3. Great Post Clyde. As I Said... LBJ would be stupid to pass up this opportunity

No. it's May.
They share the same agent. It makes sense being that they do share the same agent, Wesley the "powere broker" is involved with them and...
LeBron knows if he can convince Curry to get in shape for D'Ant's system he can help, either by actually playing or being a chip to acquire a "Big Three". Makes sense.

D'antoni doesn't have a system... I'm tired of people continuing to state that garbage. This guy has proven to be ditz. He fooled the NBA and now surprisingly he's fooling some of you Knick fans... Didn't see any of this when Larry Brown was here.. and Brown is a million times better than D'antoniiii

D'Antoni does have a system. It's the spread P & R, and has been modified to be SSOL (although we modified it for our scrubs).
Do your research.
While I don't necessarily like it... if it brings in LBJ or stars then I can't complain.
How do y'all feel about LBJ contacting and working out w/ Eddy Curry?
