LeBron James as a New York Knick this summer is all but a done deal—at least according to one business partner.
According to sources who were in attendance for a recent meeting Monster Cable Products Inc. held with their business partners, one top executive firmly stated that
LeBron James would be a New York Knick.
The executive works directly with celebrities including Dr. Dre, Lady Gaga, and yes—LeBron James.
During a presentation in which the executive showcased a slideshow of all the celebrities he personally works with, a picture of
LeBron with New York City in the background came up on the giant projection screen. The executive emphatically said
"He [LeBron James] is going to be a Knick next season. I know that for a fact].
LeBron works with Monster and their division that develops the famous
Beats by Dre headphones.
The one telling sign about the anonymous is executive is the fact that he is not a New Yorker. He is based in Los Angeles and has
season tickets to Lakers games. He does not any affiliation with New York whatsoever, so count out the potential East Coast/NY bias.
Yet, he does have a working and personal relationship with LeBron James.
Between LeBron's love for MSG, the Yankees, and New York City in general, this is yet another, albeit not-so-subtle sign, that points to him donning a Knicks jersey.
Of course, the only one that truly knows what LeBron is really thinking is LeBron himself, but recent history has certainly given us some indication. Or has it?
