PHILADELPHIA – LeBron James is now a Philadelphia 76er, but several reports say he may be looking to live in New York City and possibly commute by helicopter for practices and games.<\/p>\n
Fan reactions to LeBron\u2019s possible move <\/p>\n
What they’re saying:<\/p>\n
According to several reports, LeBron James is considering living in New York City while playing for the Philadelphia Sixers, and could commute to Philadelphia for team activities.<\/p>\n
Many Philadelphia sports fans have strong feelings about the idea of LeBron living in New York while playing for the Sixers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“I think NYC is a great spot to be in\u2026 socially and atmosphere wise\u2026 But I think if you\u2019re gonna play for Philly\u2026 you gotta live in Philly,” said Billy Greco of South Philadelphia.<\/p>\n
Anna Coleman of Cheltenham said, “We breathe Philly\u2026we live Philly\u2026gotta come here\u2026”<\/p>\n
Shawn Coleman, also from Cheltenham, said, “He can stay there on the off season\u2026 And Philly in the on season\u2026 you need a driver? I\u2019m the person for you! LeBron – I\u2019ll bring you to Philly every day.”<\/p>\n
Some fans are more focused on the team\u2019s success than where LeBron lives. “It\u2019s a little weird he\u2019s living in NY, but he\u2019s LeBron so he can do whatever in my eyes\u2026 as long as he wins I\u2019m fine with it,” said Liam Miller of Cherry Hill. Another fan said, “He could live on the moon if we get a championship.”<\/p>\n
Philadelphia real estate options for LeBron <\/p>\n
Local realtor Reid Rosenthal of The Rosenthal Group at Berkshire Hathaway Fox and Roach said there are plenty of luxury options in the Philadelphia area, including penthouses and townhomes in locations from the Main Line to South Jersey and Center City.<\/p>\n
“Philadelphia has some beautiful condos, some beautiful townhomes,” said Rosenthal. “We have a penthouse \u2014 it\u2019s one of those spectacular penthouses\u2026we have plenty of luxury in Philadelphia.”<\/p>\n
Rosenthal also pointed out that LeBron would not have to buy a home and could rent instead.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Great restaurants – Philly is a foodie city\u2026 easy to come and go from Philadelphia – close to airport\u2026 close to NYC\u2026 if you\u2019re in Philly for the next two years – why not get entrenched in the community and live local,” said Rosenthal.<\/p>\n
The question of where LeBron will live has sparked debate among fans, but the focus for many remains on the hope of a championship win.<\/p>\n
What we don’t know:<\/p>\n
It is not confirmed where LeBron James will ultimately choose to live during his time with the Philadelphia Sixers.<\/p>\n
