LeBron James News: Are We Expecting Decision 2.0 This Free Agency Period? Top Candidates Include Suns, Cavs, And Heat

Almost four years ago, the same LeBron James news we heard are eerily reminiscent to the ones we have been hearing today. 

While there has been a common thinking throughout the NBA that Miami would still be James destination after all is said and done, we still cannot predict where the 4-time MVP will stand.

After a week of negotiations with James' agent Rich Paul, the top teams which are still in tight contention to land LeBron include Miami, Phoenix and Cleveland. 

Sure, everyone expects the King to make a big announcement, but should it be the same as four years ago when he made the Decision which went live on national TV and watched by millions around the world? 

Now that he is 29 years old, the more probable course of action would be to make his decision as discreetly as possible, though any news about him would still reverberate across the four corners of the NBA, if not the world. 

So how does each of the three teams fare when it comes to chances in getting LeBron's talents? 

Cleveland is smelling a Return of the King, as James has already won two championships during his stint with the Heat. Cavs fans are especially excited that their home-grown favorite will apply what he had learned in the Finals for the past four years and teach it to a young core of stars led by Kyrie Irving. 

As far as finances go, the Suns are the most favorable option for James. In case he signs with them, report says that he can choose another star whom he can play with. Among prospective players who can join Lebron are Chris Bosh and Carmelo Anthony. The Suns' core is not anything to pout at either, with Eric Bledsoe, Doran Gragic and Myles Plumlee becoming an integral part of the team's success last season. 

Miami can still get James, but only if they hurry in assembling a talented supporting cast. Once they lure back their superstar, all other pieces will come into play once more. James would certainly be joined by Bosh and Dwyane Wade once more, together with new acquisitions Danny Granger and Josh McRoberts.
