LeBron James not a Nets' fan
Bergen Record
Do we smell an LBJ-Hova feud coming on?
LeBron James thinks the NBA is watered down and hinted that contraction of teams, including the Nets, might not be a bad idea.
Speaking to reporters before Thursday night's game against the Phoenix Suns, James defended his decision to join Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami by saying the league was more popular in the 1980s because there were more teams with multiple star players.
..."Looking at some of the teams that aren't that great, you take Brook Lopez or you take Devin Harris off these teams that aren't that good right now and you add him to a team that could be really good. Not saying let's take New Jersey and let's take Minnesota out of the league. But hey, you guys are not stupid, I'm not stupid, it would be great for the league."
NoLandGrab: And the Nets wanted us to believe they actually had a shot at signing James?
