LeBron James has ignited rumors about his future after wearing a New York Knicks towel during a postgame interview following a big win at Madison Square Garden. ESPN's Brian Windhorst interpreted this as James sending a message, using the Knicks as a tool to pressure the Los Angeles Lakers. Stephen A. Smith addressed Rich Paul of Klutch Sports, suggesting LeBron should request a trade to the Knicks. A meeting between Knicks president Leon Rose and Rich Paul, who have not spoken since Rose, James' former agent, took the Knicks job, has also been reported.
