Just heard something interesting on The Dan Patrick Show.
Dan Patrick, who's usually pretty solid and accurate when he reports something, said he heard from an NBA source that he trusts, that Lebron tried to orchestrate what would essentially be a trade of owners between the Cavs and Pistons.
He said that Lebron wanted to return to Cleveland, but didn't want to play for Dan Gilbert. So, apparently he wanted the Pistons ownership to take over the Cavs and Dan Gilbert (who's apparently from Michigan) would take over ownership of the Pistons. He also wanted the Pistons ownership to hire Tom Izzo to coach the Cavs when they took over ownership.
