Well really, Kobe and Wade both liked to drive the ball and it all worked out.
LeBron just does it more.

Shaquille O'Neal is open to a trade and Cleveland is his preferred destination, according to a source.

Another source indicated that LeBron James is excited about the possibility of playing alongside the legendary center.

O'Neal reportedly has some demands. He would like a two-year contract extension, and assurance that James will remain with the Cavaliers for at least the next three seasons.

"It's plausible, it's possible," said a league executive of the Shaq-to-Cleveland talks. "But there's nothing happening right now."
So it may be safe to say if Shaq is traded to the Cavs then LeBron is staying?....

If they win a ring in 09-10, then Shaq will retire. LeBron might stay cos he won a ring their, or he might leave cos he achieved his ultimate goal. Either way, I really don't see this deal happening. Steve Kerr will go down as one of the worst GMs of all time if it goes through, ESPECIALLY if they also deal Amare.

Why would that give Lebron a reason to stay, Shaq has 2-3 years left, maybe not even that. IF they dont get it done with Shaq next year hes gone.

He is keeping it a secret because that's who he is. He wants to have people on the edge of there seat until 2010. It keeps people talking, but I truly believe he is staying. I don't see a guy as smart as LeBron, to make a dumb enough decision to leave the state he grew up in, and the City that needs him, that has tons of billboards all over of him that has basically put the Cavs back on the map. The Knicks will always be there, they are always talked about regardless and can get back without LeBron. We can't.

He wants to be the richest athlete EVER, he wants to be a billionaire. I know he can do it anywhere, but the fact he's sooo young I think(everyone else too) him going to NY will only bring that money faster. He's leaving.
