"  May 21, 2010 I&amp;#039;ve been hanging around the Cavaliers since last June, working on a book, and I can tell you with absolute certainty \u2014 and I&amp;#039;m speaking here as both a professional reporter and a Cleveland native with a sick passion for that town&amp;#039;s teams \u2014 that I have absolutely no clue what happened to LeBron in the Celtics series or where he&amp;#039;ll be playing next year. This much I think I know: What Buzz Bissinger wrote in yesterday&amp;#039;s New York Times, about how maybe James is afraid to leave home \u2014 that&amp;#039;s truth. He needs structure and familiarity and stability and control, desperately. He&amp;#039;s a twenty-five-year-old kid from Akron, Ohio, forced from an early age to put on a brave face by his hapless mother. His number-one goal in life is not an NBA championship. It&amp;#039;s to protect her, and to protect himself. And I see no way for him to do that if he moves to New York City. Another Scandal in the Cavs&amp;#039; Locker Room? For what it&amp;#039;s worth, I don&amp;#039;t believe the stories going around about Gloria James, LeBron&amp;#039;s mom, and Delonte West. But I do know a guy on Cleveland&amp;#039;s near West Side \u2014 I&amp;#039;ll call him Vince \u2014 who runs an occasional dogfight, and Vince swears on his mother&amp;#039;s grave that the night before Game 5 of the Celtics series, one of Mo Williams&amp;#039;s pit bulls raped Antawn Jamison&amp;#039;s Shih Tzu, Tootsie.
