"Empire State of King James"


Well, Well, Well the NBA playoffs have kicked off in a major way and a few 1st round winners have been decided while there are other must win games still looming in the darkness for a few teams. This year has been focused on the dream match of Kobe vs. Lebron, but Kobe and the Lakers seemed to be in trouble while Lebron and co. are taking care of business. Lebron King James can arguably be the best player in the league, and after free agency this summer he will become the richest.

The question is, should James stay or leave after this year playoffs? Bottom line I believe James have served his time in Cleveland and to the state of Ohio, but it is time for the King to conquer a new land. The land of New York. Think about it, big city, bright lights and a flock of investors that will not make James the richest player in the NBA but the richest athlete next to Tiger Woods. Maybe its not all about the money for Lebron, but opportunities only knock on a few doors for some people and this could be the S.W.A.T team breaking in for James if he is wise.

I get it!!! The best player in the league needs to play for a winner right? Well think about this, New York has the most cap space in this upcoming free agency that will allow the Knicks to sign James and another big time player such as Chris Bosh, Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson and the dream teammate on everybody wish list Dwayne Wade. Who knows Shaq may follow James to New York with that Diesel personality that would be a league favorite. The possibilities are endless but if my name was Lebron James I would have Jay-Z and Alicia Keys ready for my press conference performing "Empire State of Mind" while I sign on the dotted line with the Knicks.

Sorry Cleveland fans but it is just business not pleasure, do not take it personal!!!!!!
