Well I don't think he can say he is staying mainly because he has to get the most out of celevland he can when it comes to his next contract, that means filing for free agency and making them bid themselves to the fullest extent in order to get him. But I think whether he leaves largely depends on what happens to him this season and what the knicks and cavs do in the offseason. If the cavs win a championship this season, then i see him staying put, if they don't then he'll file for free agency in the offseason and wait it out to see who the knicks and cavs both sign before making his decision. As said before while the knicks may be terrible they are certainly capable of pulling a similar move now to what the celtics did a couple years ago and adding two or three big time names to make them elite again. Nike wants him in new york, lebron wants to win and make the most money he can while doing it, if he can do both in new york, he's gone.
