listening to the Zach Lowe podcast. He's hearing Bron isn't open to outside the box teams like Atlanta or phoenix (Lowe likes both fits).
Thinks it's really down to Miami, Houston, and maybe clips. Dude that's on with him says he's going going to sign a short term deal to give himself a quick out no matter where he goes.

Yeah, my gut feeling is that he signs a deal with Miami where either he can opt out after one year, or just a one year contract. Then I think he will join Melo in NY next year if Melo stays (which I think is 50/50).
If Melo goes to Chicago (or Houston) I think LeBron will think hard about trying to go to LAC or Houston (Chicago) because he knows he won't likely be able to join Melo at all. But outside of those possibilities, I think he goes back to Miami for a year.
I think there is almost zero chance we get LeBron or Melo.
Actually I it just occurred to me that NY may try to sign both LeBron and Melo (extremely small chance they can clear enough cap space though). They are obviously trying to shed salary. Maybe they will try VERY hard to dump Bargnani or Amare, and if not, LeBron and Melo will both take pay cuts to play for Jackson in NY. There is a small chance of this happening, but I thought I'd throw it out there because NY is obviously trying to cut salary.
And I still think there is a small possibility they both go to the Lakers.
