Have you ever seen anything more desperate? This is further proof that the Lebron to NYC hype machine was created by the media for their own benefit. The newspapers, bloggers, tv stations and radio stations benefit the most by the prospect of Lebron leaving Cleveland. Lebron just plays along with it to get attention. Just look at how pathetic the Daily News' website is. Not only do they have a countdown on the left side for a guy to possibly hit free agency, but of the articles written, 4 of them mention Lebron in the title! There is obviously nothing else going on, but the Lebron hype gets otherwise uninterested sports fans to click on the article and maybe read it. So when people say "Lebron needs New York to....." they are full of shit. New York needs Lebron, Lebron doesn't need New York.
