For the first time, I'm giving some credence to the Miami triumvirate, but I'm still going with Cleveland.

For some reason, I think he is interested in Miami but won't go. He doesn't want to be one of Big 3. He wants a MJ/Kobe kind of legacy.

I think he signs a max deal in Cleveland with opt out available after 2-3 years (can they do that)? Gives him 2 years to recruit, and if he fails, he leaves.

My gut tells me Cleveland, but I'm going to say he'll shock us all and join Amare in New York.

Surely he wouldn't announce a prime time hour-long special just to announce that he's staying in Cleveland. Would he?

Conversely, it would be pretty heartless to have an hour long special with ad proceeds going to Akron-area charities and then decide to go somewhere else.

I know most people hate this, but I'm really enjoying this nonsense.

Boys and Girls Clubs of America............ is that necessarily Akron area?

I thought I remember hearing it would be for local branches of the charity, but I'm not 100% sure.

My gut says Cleveland. I think he wants to finish what he started.
