sucks to be a Cavs fan - almost all NBA superstars stay with the teams that drafted them but I am pretty sure Lebron is gonna be one that gets away.

My original guess was that LeBron was going to go to the Nets, since they were supposed to be moving to Brooklyn and he has close ties with Jay-Z. The problem with that is everything I have read, including the article I linked to, has said the Nets move to Brooklyn is in the shitter. As much as the Knicks would seem like a logical destination Isiah Thomas fucked up their salary cap so badly that Donnie Walsh would have to pull a fucking rabbit out of his ass to clear the cap room to sign LeBron. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but there are a lot of bad contracts in NY that have to be cleared out first...
