LAWD GEE-JUSS!!! Can you imagine his parent's grocery bill?? Homeboy would need to go pro after the 9th grade just to keep up with the food bills. I hope his mother let's him progress naturally. Good sign that she asked why he wasn't playing with the middle schoolers. I have to tell you though, if my 13 year old nephew who is kinda large for his age at about 5-7, was playing against him I would have problems. He would kill those children!!

LeBron James May Be in Spike Lee Film
37 minutes ago

The popular Cleveland Cavaliers rookie is in talks with Lee to develop a movie, James' agent, Aaron Goodwin, said Friday.

"We're still in the planning stages," Goodwin said. "We don't have a script yet. We have a production team in place. Spike has been interested for months now, and LeBron is excited about the project."

Attempts to reach Lee at his production company, 40 Acres and a Mule, were unsuccessful.

Lee, known throughout the NBA for his presence in courtside seats at New York Knicks games, directed a series of promotional commercials for TNT's basketball coverage before this season, including one featuring James in a crib with children singing to him.

Last year, Akron-based producer Joe Marsh tried to entice Lee to direct a documentary on James' rise to stardom. Marsh sued James for $15 million, claiming the player backed out of an oral contract. James' attorney denies the claim.
