LeBron James to Chicago?

[mook]

Yeah, Larry Brown would've made sense this year.

I don't know that Cleveland can afford to pay Phil Jackson that kind of money. Maybe.

I agree that the big problem with the Clippers is the stigma of it being the Clippers.

If I were LeBron, one of my demands would be (in all seriousness) to require that the Clippers re-brand their team. Just toss out the name and all the garbage it conjures in peoples' minds. Get rid of that logo that looked junky in 1981, and is an utter embarrassment now.

Come up with a new name, logo, colors, everything. Let it become "The Team LeBron Built" instead of "The Lakers' Retarded Little Brother."

(Fuck, they should just do it anyway even if LeBron doesn't tell them to. If Dominos can finally fess up that they've sold shitty pizza for decades--and start turning out pizzas that aren't half bad, why can't the Clips just completely give up on the train wreck of their franchise and declare a marketing mulligan.)

Yeah, it'd still have the same ownership. It'd still share an arena. But at least it could get out from under the massive weight that is their name.

LeBron should just appear on LA TV and say:

"People of Los Angeles who are tired of having to root for a rapist: the only thing preventing me from coming to the Clippers is that it is owned by the King of All Shitheads, Mr. Donald Sterling. Rise up and bring me his head and I will come to your fair city."

That should do it.

Ok here is my idea. Paul Allen brings in James, and tells him that if he signs up now, when Paul Allen either dies, he will leave Lebron 1 Billion dollars in his will in a wink wink nudge nudge deal. The Caveat being, Lebron has to bring a championship to the Rose City in order to get it.

lol that'd be sick
