Lebron James

Come July 1st and we will witness one of NBA‘s most awaited events (off court) when the bidding for few of the most fascinating and sought after players starts as their contracts are to end this July 1st. This year the date has been shifted three days before to start of early fireworks. With the likes of Giants such as high – flying LeBron James, red hot Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Ray Allen and others a championship winning team can be made out of them certainly.

With big shots varying from Shaq to Rudy there is plenty of thought being put in by the General Managers and the coaches. And with all these names the most excited people are the fans who would be wanting the big shots come down to their sides.

Some terms to get familiarized with before continuingA restricted free agent is one whose current team has the right of first refusal on any offer made.A player option means the player can end his contract one year early.Early termination means that a contract can be voided two or more years early.In both cases, a player is an unrestricted free agent, available to sign with the highest bidder.

LeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers)

The 25 year old Cavalier from Ohio was signed by the Cleveland in 2003 NBA Draft Pick. Since then this man has been phenomenal and has never looked back by winning the Rookie of the Season in 2003 – 2004 and two MVPs he is one hot stuff. This forward’s six year association with th Cavs is going to end this July.With rumors flying around that the Russian billionaire who bought the New Jersey Nets offering him half of Moscow if LeBron plays for the Nets and the Knicks offering to build a Manhattan skyscraper his future is certainly in doubt.This man is certainly the one whom all are looking forward to sign. Playing for a team where he has been a one man army for most of the time he will be wanting a change and would love to play in a team which offers him support players.Averaging at 29.1 points, 9.3 rebounds, 7.6 assists per game in this year’s playoffs this 6ft8in forward would be looking to move on. And a contract status of unrestricted free agent there is no stopping him.The frustration in him was clearly visible in their last match loss to the Celtics where he had 27 points, 9 turnovers, 1 block, 3 steals, 10 assists and 19 rebounds. With these stats he should be not looking for anything less than the playoffs winners or runners up. And with all his hardwork yielding just one finals appearance the fact would be hurting LeBron very much. So the its upto him to decide if he wants to continue for one more year or jump on the next big offer he gets.

But in a recent interview he was quoted saying that he would to continue at Cleveland as he is very much comfortable there and has got many memories associated with Cleveland and moreover he has a very much relationship with the fans.But as we all know little do all the above factors help when it comes to choosing your future and moreover money does change everything!!

So one revolutionary decision awaited which will change the NBA for at least four or five years..
