Day 7 of NBA Free Agency and no word from LeBron….. but that isn’t stopping Betty White from trying to coax the most coveted free agent in NBA history to stay in Cleveland. Betty White has a new show Hot in Cleveland and addresses the LeBron James free agency rumors.
For Cleveland’s sake, hopefully Betty White was as convincing as she was with the SNL people!

Cavs fans are pulling out all the stops to keep LeBron James in Cleveland. LeBron is a free-agent and rumored to be on the outs of the team that drafted him and his home-state. As thejerseychaser.com posted earlier, fans even formed a Flash Mob at a local Ohio Mall as a publicity stunt to keep LBJ.
Yesterday was LeBron Appreciation Day in Ohio, and LBJ himself showed up to a rally being held in his honor. From his speech, LeBron gave hints to him possibly staying: “Everything I do is for this city. I’m going to continue to do great things. I love every last one of you all. Akron is my home.”
Now that the Cleveland Cavaliers failed to get Tom Izzo as their head coach in order to lure LeBron James into resigning with the team, it is now time for Plan B. Fans preformed a Flash Mob dance at the Tower City Mall on Thursday. The purpose was to “Keep LeBron in Cleveland” and was organized by Greater Cleveland Sports CEO David Gilbert. 200 boys and girls from Cleveland and Akron Boys and Girls clubs were apart of the Flash Mob.
Today is also LeBron James Appreciation Day in Ohio. A rally is being held in LeBron’s hometown of Akron.
No word yet if the Flash Mob worked…. or if LeBron even knows about it.
