    Wasn't it reported pretty early on that he wanted $15-$16 million starting? I think he has his market value pegged pretty well. Can't see a team offering him anywhere close to the $22M max.
    Only report I saw near $15-16m was out of Miami right after he opted out. There are plenty of inept front offices, I bet he could get close to max money from one of them and his agent is saying the same:

    Of course teams will tell him that in the hope it gets James to walk. I'd be truly shocked if LeBron walks and anyone offers that though.

    We have the young talent, the roster, the money, the training staff, and the weather. Everything Lebron could ask for in a free agent destination. Make it happen, McD.

    Seriously, Dragic-Bledsoe-Lebron-Bosh-Plumlee is a disgusting starting lineup.

    If LeBron goes back to a small market team,,,,you can bet your bottom dollar it would be Cleveland not Phoenix.

    Phoenix is the fifth largest city in the country. We have teams in every major sport. It isn't remotely small-market.

    Thought you were trying to get that for June. Could have stuck with Nash if February was the focus.

    Miami is a small market too; Miami/Ft. Lauderdale is the #16 TV market in the nation. #17 is Cleveland/Akron.

    Cleveland has teams in every legitimate major sport,,,,no one counts NHL(unless you want to count Columbus). Hometown pull would trump Phoenix big time.

    Miami has the same pull Cleveland does,,,play with friends or play in your home state. Dude seems sentimental about his choices,,,why else stay in Cleveland as long as he did and consider still staying in Miami with a broken Wade?

    ^Scares the outta me because I cannot see him going back to Cleveland. Doesn't make a lick of sense on any level. He shows up here and I'll go back to Cleveland, by God.

    Suns make a ton of sense from a bball perspective. But Lebron will never go there because:

    - He hasn't forgotten what a greedy Jew Sarver was during the last lockout

    - He is too self conscious about how he would be criticized as an NBA mercenary/vagabond if he switched teams again

    He will go back to Miami. 100%.

    Lebron cramps up at 85 degrees, pretty sure he's not going to go for 116.

    Lebron stays in Miami. They have what they need other than a good PG and a bench. He won't get as close to that in any other 1st or 2nd year on another team, except the Spurs and he'd cut his balls off on national TV before he ever even talked to them.

    Seems like he's serilious about expecting a max contract if he doesn't rejoin Superfriends 2.0.

    Sources say Bosh would expect a four-year maximum offer of $96 million to jump to leave Miami for Houston or any other suitor.

    ESPN's Chris Broussard reported Wednesday that Bosh was seeking a five-year deal worth between $80-to-$90 million to re-sign with Miami, while Wade is thinking along the lines of $55-60 million over four years.

    With the Suns training staff, he would never cramp up again. I'm with Xylus. I've said it from the start: Suns are the only team that makes sense for LeBron from a basketball standpoint.

    I don't see it. Why would he want to go to a team that missed the playoffs and couldn't win a ring in their best days?

    They won 6 less games than the Heat, in the tougher conference. If they had been in the East, they may have won as many or more games than the Heat. Add LeBron and Bosh to that same core roster, and you have an instant championship contender. Cleveland is not an instant championship contender.
