                                I think Cleveland at even odds is a smart bet...
however, Miami 4:1
and Chicago 10:1
would be my next short lines.

                                Somehow I don't think living up to Jordan or living in his shadow will concern Lebron.  Besdies, Jordan's been gone from CHI for like 10 years.

                                Funny how the sports books before the playoffs had LBJ as a 3 to 1 favorite to stay in Cleveland.
I would guess that Brown is a 4 to 1 favorite to get fired.

                        Lebron doesn't need a statue, but 20 years from now when you bring your child to a Chicago game, he/she will be like "Daddy who is this guy?, I thought Lebron James was taller."gerb131 wrote:Did they leave room for 2 statues outside of the United Center?sleeper wrote: If Lebron went to Chicago, he'd make people forget about the other #23.
And you will reply "Son, that is Micheal Jordan, the guy who everyone thought was better than Lebron James, and this is to remind people that when someone tells you that you will never be better than someone else, just keep working hard and it can happen."

                                Lebron is great, Jordan was a killer.  I don't see Lebron ever being considered better than Jordan.  6 titles ain't happening for Leboob.  He might be lucky to end-up ranked ahead of Kobe, in all honesty.
Jordan, Magic, Bird, Kobe and some others.....Great champions.....Doc J and Lebron, great players.

                                If LeBron would go to Chicago he would need to win seven championships to dethrone Jordan. In this era of sports, no one is going to win that many over the next 10-12 years.
