Lebron James Nike Commercial "Training Day"

[SmushedPennies]

Since we're loosely on the topic of LeBron staying/leaving...the only strong argument I've heard for him going back to Cleveland is that he may not want raise his kids in South Florida. Not necessarily because it's a bad place, but because he wants them to grow up where he grew up. Then again, maybe he would've never left Cleveland if that were the case. You can spin that another way, though. If I'm not mistaken, his oldest is in 4th grade now (at the school I went to!), and it's tough to move kids away from their social circles around that age. Was one thing to move when he was going into 1st grade going into the 10-11 season, but I could see his kids protesting being taken away from their Miami friends.

I dont follow that at all, where ever his kids grow up itll be in the most expensive private schools anyway so it doesnt matter. I think his kids would much rather stay where theres a beach than deal with a winter.

If you're talking about him going back to Cleveland, it's not about the schools. He may just want his kids growing up around what he grew up around, since he loves the city so much (Akron). Some speculate he may want to put them at SVSM for HS. That would be four years from when he could opt out this summer, so maybe things could line up perfectly for us.

How many world class athletes determine their career moves based on what highscholl their kid is going to go to in 4 years?
