LeBron James and John Calipari, arriving as a package deal – brokered by “Worldwide” Wes — to take over the Bulls or the Nets. It’s the rumor that will not die, no matter how many times Coach Cal insists he’ll be back coaching the Kentucky Wildcats this Fall.
Now, Chicago and Jersey have benefits aside from their coaching vacancies.The Bulls play in a top market and have a superstar in the making in Derrick Rose and a solid core Joakim Noah, Luol Deng, Taj Gibson to build around or use in trades. The Nets have one of the league’s top young centers in Brook Lopez, an All-Star caliber point guard in Devin Harris, the inside track to draft John Wall, and the deep pockets of new owner Mikhail Prokhorov to finance it all.
But are we really supposed to believe that Calipari seals the deal for either team?
