According to Frank Isola, LeBron James likes the idea of living in New York in the coming years.  

James "has told close associates that making New York City his home for the next six years appeals to him," Isola wrote.

The Knicks believe they can land James.

"You hear so much talk about where he might be going, but until he makes a decision, we know we have a chance," one member of the Knicks' front office said. "Donnie has a plan."
