Decision day is upon us as new twitter member LeBron James is going to announce his decision on a one hour free agency special on ESPN this Thursday at 9 p.m. eastern time:
LeBron James will announce the team with which he will sign during a one-hour special on ESPN Thursday night, ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard has learned through independent sources.
ESPN would only confirm that active discussions for the special are ongoing. But sources tell Broussard that representatives for James contacted the network, proposing that James makes his announcement during a 9 p.m. ET special.
James has had talks with six teams so far in this free agency period, but we can all agree the Clippers have no chance:
James' plans still are a closely guarded secret. He visited with six teams -- the New Jersey Nets, New York Knicks, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Clippers, Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls -- last week at his business offices in downtown Cleveland and may have made up his mind already. But until he gives word, other teams are positioning themselves to make a run at the 6-foot-8, 260-pound All-Star.
This looks to be the inner younger LeBron getting his chance to announce his team of choice on national television since he did not get a chance to do the played out three hats on a table routine which includes at least two fake outs before picking his collegiate team of choice.
