For the past couple of weeks on That NBA Lottery Pick, we have been chronicling the courting of NBA teams with super-duper mega-free agent Lebron James.
The Chicago Bulls has been named as one of the destinations for Mr. Lebron and Bulls fans are doing their best to court Lebron.
We get more from Chicago Breaking Sports:
While a famous Cleveland chef thinks the way to keep LeBron James with the Cavaliers is through his stomach, some Bulls fans have chosen a different route to lure the prized, soon-to-be free agent to Chicago: A billboard.Jeez, a billboard? It's not like Lebron's doesn't have any of those already like the one in Cleveland that 14 sizes bigger than that one.
The above plea went up this week at the corner of Grand Avenue and LaSalle Street in downtown Chicago. It's the work of the people behind sendlebrontochicago.com. A.J. Barthold, the site's founder, says the billboard was funded by donations from Bulls fans and that he hopes to have a similar one erected in James' hometown of Akron, Ohio, before the start of the July 1 NBA free agent bonanza.
You better up your game Chicago, a couple of billboards are not going to sway Lebron to join the Bulls.
