Published 8/6/2008 at chicagotribune.com - Sports
It had been long assumed that Jay-Z and the New Jersey Nets and Mike D'Antoni and the New York Knicks would be the greatest threat to grab LeBron James away from the Cavaliers once the superstar's contract expires after the 2009-10 season. But the threat could really be from abroad.
