LeBron James free agency winds blowing westward: The Donovan Live Postgame Show

Thursday was not a promising day for the Cavaliers in their quest to keep LeBron James in Cleveland as Jim Donovan and Dave "Dino" DeNatale discuss.

The next major step in the LeBron James free agency sweepstakes is just about here.

On Friday, the four-time MVP will let the Cleveland Cavaliers know if he will opt-in to the final year of his contract, or officially become a free agent by opting out as most expect.

For Cavaliers fans, Thursday was not very promising, as Jim Donovan relayed during a 'Jimmy's Take' segment on Donovan Live.

We found out that Paul George is opting out of his contract with Oklahoma City, while there seems to be more movement in the Lakers' effort to trade for Spurs star Kawhi Leonard. Topping that off was the report that James texted Kevin Durant about coming down from Golden State to join him in Los Angeles with the Lakers.

There's no reason right now to be panicked. But it sure feels like James is doing what he can to head west to Los Angeles.

Jimmy and I took the pulse of the fans during Thursday evening's Donovan Live Postgame Show. Many of you wrote in with your comments. Here was my favorite:

Just in case the worst happens, don't ever forget the glorious times we as Cavaliers fans have had over the last four years. However, I'm still not convinced that home and family won't be enough to convince the kid from Akron to stay in Northeast Ohio.

Let's hope that all roads lead back home for good.
