The LeBron to Philly rumors have heated up after King James visited the City of Brotherly Love this past Monday and offered plenty of praise for the Sixers and the process prior to and following the game.
On Thursday ESPN's First Take program pondered LeBron's potential fit in Philadelphia following a report that the Sixers will pursue James this offseason if he declines his player option.
Stephen A. Smith – who covered the Sixers for the Philadelphia Inquirer during the height of Allen Iverson's career – appears to be sold on the idea of LeBron trusting the process:
Jalen Rose – who is clearly still bitter about Joel Embiid calling him out – does not like the idea of LeBron going to Philly, for what it's worth.
