The ensuing chaos would definitely be entertaining enough to root for that possibility, however much a longshot it might be.

The idea of him being in New York started pretty much when he was drafted with the speculation (or more) being that he was worth $100 million MORE to Nike than he was in Cleveland. And that was just Nike. Total dollar value to him of endorsements by playing in NY/LA would be tough for a Euro team to make up in salary. Don't know what his endorsement value would be in Europe though.
