Any time a superstar like James leaves an organization, there is destruction left in his wake. The organization has to re-assess its position and how best to rebuild and […]

LeBron James let the media twist in the wind as he thought about where he would play next year. He kept quiet and kept the decision to himself. He wanted to make sure this was the right decision for himself and his career. At 30 years old, James has won his championships (two of them, […]
