    Confusing topic at first glance. The words resigned and re-signed are so similar yet the meaning is almost the opposite.

    I'll say 1.

    I edited the thread title to avoid the confusion.

    i'll say Zero.

    you need a supporting cast to win championships in this day and age IMO

    even jordan had pippen, but lebron doesn't even have that there in cleveland right now.

    I have to agree with dan here. LaBron really didn't show alot of interest signing this new deal anyways. I bet he demands a trade if the Cavs do not win a title in the next three years.

    I heard the radio today a quote from LeBron's agent that LeBron agreed to a 4 year/60m contract with the 4th year being an option year decided only by LeBron. I voted for zero championships. I think he will be like KG in Minnesota, where primarily he will be the only star and be surrounded by average players.

    I voted 1 also.....I think James is one of those unique players where he can win with a little bit of help and his supporting cast is not that bad now but I feel the Cavs will make the proper move soon to bring in a big name which will really make this team dangerous....This city is on the right track in the NBA

    Im sure they know that and will be addressing that concern in the future. They have BigZ and Larry Hughes. Hughes needs to stay healthy for a the team to be a big contender.

    I say 3+, mainly because Im a Lebron fan.

    They'd be so much better off without Ilgauskas. One way or another Lebron will be winning championships though. Don't worry about how Jordan needed help, because when it's all said and done Lebron will make Jordan seem like Rambis.

    BigDog, I completely agree. I think Lebron will need the same kind of help that Wade got this year in the finals, and I guarantee Stern will give him that help.

    I voted 1, because I'm not sure that the Cavs have the dynasty look just yet. But, within the next 5 years, I think they'll put together a "team of destiny" and win one.

    As for the Lebron contract and Lebron moving on, he's just playing the smart business move card at this point. He's got the talent, he's got the leverage. He's already making more money than God, and he's positioned to make 10x more than Jordan ever did, endorsements included.

    Lebron James should win a championship within 5 years.
    He deserves it. I think they have a chance next year,
    Shannon Brown was a good pick up and LeBron James
    is always the best player on the court.

    If he really wanted a championship he'd take less money so the club can sign more players. He'll make 20+ million a year in endorsements anyways

    0. He need another superstar as teammate, or a group of near stars around him. Unfortunately it is not easy to happen at Cleveland.

    He ended up signing the three year deal instead of the five year deal. I think Cleveland has no chance at winning a title in three years.

    I picked zero as well. When contemplating how many championships Lebron will have with the Cavs, you can't just look at him and his team. You have to remember that no matter how good Lebron is, or how good his team gets, it means nothing if they're still not better than the other 29 teams out there. There are a lot of up and coming young guns who are just waiting to mature.
