AllenIverson#1fan Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 WASHINGTON (AP) -- The president is on the record again about LeBron James -- and this time, the people of Cleveland may be happier about it. President Barack Obama told CNN on Thursday that it would be a terrific story if the basketball superstar stayed with the Cleveland Cavaliers instead of switching teams as a free agent. Said Obama: "That's a town that has had some tough times." The president said it would be a wonderful statement to Cleveland if James said: "I'm going to make a commitment to this city." The president stuck to his point that James needs to find a winning situation with a good team and coach. But he did not gently nudge James toward the Chicago Bulls, Obama's hometown team, as the president did in an interview last month.http://www.nba.com/2010/news/06/03/obama.lebron.ap/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
