The King makes his decision on Thursday

AKRON, Ohio (AP)—Broadcaster ESPN reported Tuesday that James will announce his future NBA plans during a one-hour special on its network Thursday.
ESPN’s Chris Broussard said James’ “representatives” contacted the network and asked for the unusual arrangement.
It is not known which team James will join or where the announcement will take place.
So the King is finally ready to make is choice. Does he stay in Cleveland and hope they can make a sign and trade for Bosh? Or does he head to Chicago and play alongside Derrick Rose and potentially Bosh? Or what I’m hoping for that he heads to Miami and teams up with D. Wade and Bosh and forms the greatest trio ever. Whatever he chooses you can expect ESPN to make a huge deal about it and then come up with a 1000 different scenarios for other players to go to Cleveland and lock Lebron up for a few Championships. If Lebron does stay in Cleveland and they somehow coax Bosh into going there I still wouldn’t put them as the favorites to win the title. A new coach, a new player and losing some key role players is tough to win first time out. So have fun for the next week after Lebron announces his decision and get ready to hate ESPN and the 24/7 Lebron-a-thon.
PS…If Lebron is holding this news conference in Akron he will be staying in Cleveland, otherwise the people of Cleveland will set the city ablaze like the Cuyahoga River.
