I'm surprised there is no thread about this yet. sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3520860This has to be a false report or there must have been some sort of mis-understanding. LeBron has the ability to win a championship in the NBA. He has been in the finals before and he can do it again now that he knows what this league is about. I would imagine the NBA would pay him money to stay. Overall, there is no way that report can be true. There must be some sort of mis-understanding. As of right now, LeBron has yet to say anything so this report is crap until I hear it from the man himself.

he said he would consider europe, but its not likely. I admit that I'm not familiar with the European League..but can they actually afford to give him $50? How much does a decent Euro player make?

Why would Lebron even think about going to Europe? The best basketball is played in the US and hes one of the best players in the world. Money can't be THAT big of a thing when you're already making mega bucks

Alot of NBA and NHL players are moving to Europe because of the money and some places in europe have crazy almost soccer like atmosphere for basketball and hockey. Only reason both the NBA and NHL Teams cannot match these offers is because those leagues have a cap to work under while european teams have no cap thus they can offer higher amounts that these us and canadian teams can not even match i mean this year alone 3 raptors players left to play in europe

I'm pretty sure he'll go unless he has a extreme-over-the-top-virtuous-nice-guy moment. (AKA Twins)
