It actually wouldn't be a waste, because it would generate soooooo much fucking money and interest in Euroleague, they'd make the cheese back in a matter of days...I have a feeling some Euro team is gunna throw something like $40 mill per season at LeBron.

^ lure away a few key nba players i'd say defenitly say yes, but if its only just lebron over there playing against todd mcoullah and keith closs, interest would die really quick

me! i'd much rather play here, and have the spotlight on me, with the fame and endorsment deals, etc. your all acting like NBA players get 100k a year. whats a couple million to them? they can get whatever they want under an NBA contract or Euro contract. its such a prestigous thing to play here. take a few NBA bench players? that i can see...guys who have no chance at being stars here, but could be one of the best in Europe, okay. but SMH at a SUPERSTAR like Lebron for even concidering this! :nawty: :grumpy:

Whats so funny? Lebron is amazing and isn't even in his prime yet. If dude could make $50 million for 1 year then I'd say go for it.

You do know like 80% of NBA players after they retire go broke right? NBA, NFL, MLB players dont know anything about money management

Lebron will not go broke. if he lives up to the hype, he'll be the future Jordan when he's done. if he goes to Europe he'll be known as the sellout who couldnt win in the states so went to play for more money, and average 78.3 PPG overseas. ::)

LeBron is going to Brooklyn. Nets are dumping all those contracts and are going to make a serious push. Not offering that kind of money but just my gut feeling he is going to the Brooklyn Nets.

word, Jay-Z will convince that boy Lebron to play with the Nets...there boys, he had James' side in his beef with Stevenson. Lebron would be under the NY spotlight in Brooklyn & who wouldn't want to be the face of NY over playing with a bunch of wack Europeans. ???

yeah but the Knicks won't make a run for Lebron...Nets have made trades and cleared up cap space so they can make an offer to King James that he can't refuse.

I don't see that, but even if they do the Nets will find a way to sign him...even if Sean Carter has to reach into his own pocket. ;)

That would be even better. In 2010 he could go to Europe and stack up $50 mill for a year then come back to the NBA and sign with the Brooklyn Nets. He's only 24, he can do it.

doesn't Nike pay him like 100 million in endorsments? he's a greedy fuck if he wants that money so bad...he's set for life already. :grumpy:

guys like him can help change the community..
if only he had a mindset to go overseas come back and build homes where he grew up at, use that money for scholarships.. help out ppl getting raped by credit card companies that promised them a 6 % fixed rate on there HOMES but really a variable rate, fund low income working parents with 2/3 jobs trying to make ends meet etc

I'm pretty sure that if he wanted to only play for 1 year, they'd do it.

All this with these European teams at the very least offering the contracts they do it is going to create some leverage for players trying to get a new contract. Look at Randolph Childress.
