Waiting for the NJ/ESPN love affair to begin now. LBJ must be going to Jersey to team up with Wall and create a dynasty.

Yeah, I saw this on Windy's twitter yesterday.

Smart move on LeBron's part. If Wall explodes, they will combine these two in advertising and marketing.

Too bad they won't be wearing the same unis.

Bro, what are you talking about? Don't you watch ESPN? Lebron is going to New Jersey next year.

has it officially been decided that Wall is going to NJ? he'll be the #1 pick regardless, right? there are 15 teams in the lottery.

Not sure when the lottery is, but NJN will have the highest chance of landing the #1 pick.

Wasn't LeBron the last time it happened?

That is a good question to ask, though NJ will have the best odds of getting that first pick, Minnesota isn't far behind, and we all know they freakin' love point guards.

I wouldnt be surprised to see the NBA work it to where NJ gets the #1 pick.

I could see Minny taking Wall and then taking Rubio.

They'll draft Turner with the expectation of having him play point as well. FOUR POINT GUARDS AND DARKO. That's the way McHale would want it.

LOL, I'm patiently waiting to see who writes the article connecting this to LeBron signing with the Nets and looks stupid in the process.

Not surprising really, what other marketing company would you want to sign with? Even if they aren't the "best" at their jobs--the company is headlined by LeBron. That'll get you in pretty much anywhere, seeing how he's one of the top 10 most marketable people in the world. Being associated with LeBron absolutely can not be bad business right now.

I don't think the Cavs had the worst record that season. W/out looking it up, I think we were 3rd from bottom.

Great point. Even though the Nets are the favorites to win the lottery, they only have about a 30% chance of winning it.

It's kind of the same deal in this year's playoffs. The Cavs are favorites over everybody to win the NBA title this year.

But being realistic, the other 15 teams (the field) is favored to win the title over the Cavs winning it.

Now watch the sparks fly. LOL.

If LeBron does leave for New York (These lights will inspire you!), thank God. We can then stop talking about him in Ohio.

See ya, Bron Bron.

The Cavs and Grizzlies I believe tied for the worst record in 02-03. And the team with the worst record has a 25% of landing the #1 pick. And New Jersey will get the #1 pick, take Wall, and sign LeBron.

Wall is a bust, sort of like Derrick Rose. Rose blows and so will wall.

This doesn't surprise me one bit. Bron is EXTREMELY close with Coach Cal and I'm pretty sure he got pretty close with Wall as well. I say good for him and Bron's company.
