From Matt Gagne of the Daily News:
LeBron James remains on the mind of every Knick fan hoping this season’s MVP becomes a free agent in 2010 and packs his bags for New York.
But Michael Jordan, the ultimate Knick killer, threw a wrinkle in the die-hards’ wishful thinking Friday afternoon, essentially saying don’t hold your breath – or think James can make the Knicks instant contenders.
“He’s made his mark in Cleveland. I know New York fans would love to have him, but you need a lot more components than just one player,” Jordan said after playing in a celebrity golf tournament at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, L.I., leading up to next week’s U.S. Open there. “He’s done a heck of a job in Cleveland and they deserve to have him there. He’s from that area.”

MJ is killing Knicks fans again, but he speaks the truth. LeBron is home and if the rumor of a putting a Shaq in Cleveland so that they can live in the paint is true, then LeBron is certain to stay.
Notice LeBron’s loyalty again. Mike Brown is still in town. Does that happen without LeBron’s vote?
