Lebron: Will He Stay or Go?

The Cavs' Lebron James has formally petitioned the NBA to change his uniform number next year. Veteran NBA watchers say that means he's decided to stay with the Cavs next season, passing up the chance to test free agency, since NBA rules allow him to change uniform numbers without that formal process if he were to join a new team. A couple of weeks ago, the New York Times Off the Dribble hoops blog took a hard look at the possible suitors for his services. You can read part one here and part two here.
UPDATE: Kobe Bryant tells the L.A. Times that the Cavs seem like the hungrier team this year than his own Lakers.

Right on, Lebron!
change your number,
change your game,
change your face,
but as 90% of the people
who wrote in my high school yearbook said,
"Stay as sweet as you are. See ya next year."

Thanks for posting this John. I enjoyed reading both parts; it's all sooooo interesting. I hope his changing his number from 23 to 6 is a good sign, and I hope he stays! Cleveland needs him!
