If this show is going to happen, I at least hope they decide to go over the top and have som fun with it. Here are some scenarios I like: The Wizard of Oz Scenario: The first 50 minutes consists of the announcers engaging in a bunch of wide-eyed speculation, like 'What will the mighty Lebron do?!' When it's time for him to make his announcement he's not in the pressroom when the whole place goes dark. Then his voice echoes through the room in a menacing way. 'I AM THE ALMIGHTY LEBRON!!! THE LEAGUE BENDS TO MY WILL!!!' 'I CHOOSE TO PLAY FOR.....' and then flames and smoke come out of the ground and he rises up in a cape and wearing the jersey of the team he's going to sign for. The WWF Scenario: He announces he's going to sign with the Cavs. Then, when he's getting ready to sign the contract he gives Dan Gilbert the stone cold stunner and pushes the contract into the camera and yells 'I never signed it bitches!!!' He gives Gilbert the finger repeatedly while he lies on the ground in pain. Then he pulls out a contract to play for the Nets out of his backpocket, signs it in a hurry, and he and Mikhail streak out of the building in a limo, and thereafter is referred to as 'Czar James' What would you like to see happen?

Re: I can't take these updates anymore; SO, how do you want the Lebron telecast to go You mean the Nets? Mikhail is the owner of the Nets. But I hear ESPN isnt waiting for him to make his decision. I hear its gonna be the first 10-15 minutes.
Re: I can't take these updates anymore; SO, how do you want the Lebron telecast to go Team Lebron had the chance to style this as a Survivor concept - GM style where one of them would have been voted off every week But tomorrow and to compress it I would like to see a A LeBatchelor concept Stage 1 : He takes Mikhail, Dan, Donnie , Riles and Pax out on a date and hands out 3 Roses Exit : Mikhail and Riles Stage 2 : He has a Fantasy Suite set up for a 10 minutes of champage, caviar , stawberries and anal sex by the fire and then hands out 2 Roses Exit : Pax Stage 3 : Dan is standing in a tropical garden with a hibiscus flower in his hair and Donnie is sitting in his wheelchair , red smoking jacket with black lapels and a paisley cravat. Lebron arrives in a Limo and the first one he makes a bee line for is Dan Gilbert . Lebron delivers his speech and tells him how much he means to him BUT...... BUT...... Lebron can't talk and holds back the sobs while Dan's eyes fill up with tears knowingly and manages to murmur ...." I just want you to be happy" Exit Dan Gilbert who then goes into an expletive fuelled rage as to what a cheap bitch he feels like as the Limo speeeds off ..... The Stage is now set for Lebron as he Hasselhoff like comes sashaying through a tropical garden with Stephen A Smith playing a harp and Stewart Scott and Chris Sherdian suspended above him dressed as angels showering tears of Cheese Doodles on Stephen A below ....... Lebron runs up to a golden urn of blessed fine white crystal sand and exaltingly throws it to the Heavens for God's approval before it descends on Donnie Walsh and cures the gimp who then leaps from his chair and sommersaults to take his cue next to Lebron as PUBLIC ENEMY appear out of nowhere with Spike Lee and where everyone breaks into old school ghetto rap moves to "Fight the Power' Roll Credits .
Re: I can't take these updates anymore; SO, how do you want the Lebron telecast to go That's vaguely reminiscent of General Zod in Super Man II. KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!
Re: I can't take these updates anymore; SO, how do you want the Lebron telecast to go Personally, I'd like to see Michael Jordan walk out as Lebron is about to announce and kick Lebron right in the ass. There's lots and lots of bad things you can say about Jordan, but you have to give him credit for having some dignity and burning desire basketball. Market the shit out of yourself as a great player? Cool. This? Not cool.
