Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The biggest prize in NBA free agency, LeBron
James, is expected to announce his decision regarding which team he'll play
for next during a prime-time television special Thursday night.
Sources told ESPN's Chris Broussard that James would announce his decision
live on the cable network during a 9 p.m. (et) special.
The reigning two-time MVP has met at his business offices in downtown
Cleveland with six teams, including his hometown Cavaliers. The Chicago Bulls,
New York Knicks, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Clippers and New Jersey Nets are the
others in the running for James' services.
He joined the online social media world on Tuesday when he joined Twitter, but
as of late night he had posted just one message welcoming people to his page.
Yet, as of 11 p.m. he already had over 185,000 followers.
The 25-year-old James has played for the Cavs his entire seven-year career and
stands to make more money playing for his hometown team should be accept a max
deal. The Cavaliers can likely offer James a six-year, $125.5 million
contract, while other teams can give him a maximum of five years and $96.1
million.
Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, other prominent All-Stars, have yet to tip their
hand as to which team they will choose once the free-agent signing moratorium
is lifted on Thursday. Rumors were swirling that James wanted Bosh to join him
on the Cavs, but Bosh didn't want to accept a sign-and-trade offer from
Toronto to play in Cleveland.
James, who was second in the league at 29.7 points per game last season, also
averaged 8.6 assists and 7.3 rebounds.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
