Today might finally be the day LeBron James make his decision of where he will play, which will finally help jumpstart this year's NBA free agency period once and for all.
Since yesterday, the talks of James returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers have been legit. One source even said it is a 90 percent chance he returns to Cleveland. Now down to the Cavs and Miami Heat, the chances of James returning to Cleveland have only grown stronger.
We said before James is expected to announce his decision on LeBronJames.com. In fact, we had been hearing he would make the announcement on his website either tonight or tomorrow.

It looks like it will be made today now. James has a meeting with Pat Riley and the Heat today at 6 p.m. ET, and several sources indicate that the decision for James will be made on his website at some point around that time period.

Looks like LeBron is going to have definitely upgrade the servers for his website today. I'm sure they got that covered. They're about to get a lot of hits today with folks refreshing and have the site bookmarked.
All signs right now point to James returning to Cleveland. Some say today's meeting is James telling Riley that he is leaving and going back to the Cavaliers. He has agent Rich Paul with him in the meeting, who is reportedly telling "everyone" that the Cavs return is evidently going down.
We'll just have to see what happens tonight. After that, we'll finally see free agency start to move with other marquee free agents expected to get deals such as Carmelo Anthony, Pau Gasol and Lance Stephenson.
