I think Chicago would be a good fit since they are already a decent team and Chicago would LOVE Lebron.

Surprised to see all the Orlando mentions on here. In fact, I've never heard Orlando even into this mix before reading this thread.
All of this makes sense but keep in mind that Lebron made it to the Eastern Conf. Semi Finals after 2 seasons on the Cavs who had delporable seaons prior to that. With immediate help, he may be able to turn the Knicks around in 1-2 seasons.

Financially outside of his actual contract, NY may be able to offer a better stage if it's something that he's interested in.

I don't know how much of an improvement Chicago would be though to what he has now. I mean afterall he went to the Conf Finals and lost twice, which is pretty good. From what I can see, it'd be a stretch to believe that Chicago is that much better to get him over that hump.

I admit it though...I'm biased, I'd like to see him come to nyc...basketball has sucked here for the last 10 years.

I believe this more than even before. Lost a lot of respect for him.
Should have tried ultra hard, led Cleveland to at least the finals, then he could have left, as opposed to sabatoging his stay in Cleveland.

Ok, can we call the "big market" phenomenon DOA now? Knicks only got Amare by overpaying and they will stuggle to make the playoffs next year.
