Where will LeBron James is playing next season?

From fun, sun of Miami

Dave Hyde, Sun Sentinel A wise old general manager told me a way to rate the NBA trades is this: Who has the best player? That's it. Only five games in basketball, after all. That is why LeBron James Cleveland will trade for Dwyane Wade this summer. Wade is the best player out there. Sun and Miami's South Beach and Pat Riley have not worn either.

James wants to win and James and Wade - Wade and James? - Will be Batman and Batman. They are friends. They are superstars. They will be magnets to draw more talent to poor scheduling of the Heat. James' decides who the best player out there to join? And that is simple. It's Wade. He will stay home K.C. Johnson, Chicago Tribune LeBron James is staying in Cleveland. I know this because I suspected. Anyone can offer any speculation that he or she likes. But ultimately we are all witnesses of James' last word. I know that James stay with the Cavs was one of the least talked-about options. But in the end, I would say a combination of a spare-no-expense owner Dan Gilbert and a loyal son of James and indigenous shock the NBA world. I think James will pursue the signing of a shorter term deal, have an opt-out - and another big payday - in, say, 2013 at the age of 28. In this way he gives himself and his team of advisers - many of them childhood friends from Akron - another shot in Ohio to bring glory. If it did not happen when he's off to bigger markets. But think about the organizational control he has: he can coach his next name, if he so chooses. He can provide input on personnel decisions. And he can stay home.
