Yes. We will know that Lebron will begin meeting teams in person and will probably make a decision over the weekend.

Sounds like a "thanks for everything & best of luck to you in your future endeavors" kinda meeting.
No Wade there makes it seem like a formality type of meeting. He had his last hurrah with Wade, Wade seems to have accepted his fate, and LeBron will go to Cleveland. At least that is what my wishful self is thinking.
Sounds that way...wasn't the coach and Wade suppose to be there? Amazing, I really didn't think Cleveland was an option when this all started. Good for them if he goes back home.
Bosh & Howard gonna be our new bromance once Jeremy is gone.... In those videos they seemed just like one another! Bosh&Dwight4Ever
I dunno. If Wade, Spo, and Arison were there, wouldn't you be more apt to think he was saying his formal "good bye and thank you"?
I wonder how much Spo versus Euro-celebrity coach is factoring into Lebron's thinking. Does anyone know if Lebron has ever met that coach, or maybe played against him in international competition?
Why would they need to be there for that? He was with Wade yesterday and probably told him already. How many people do you give notice to when you leave a job? I think Riley is sufficient for that duty. Rich Paul is probably there as a witness if something is said that Lebron doesn't like.
If I was Wade I'd be pissed that my last hoorah with Lebron in Vegas was dinner & drinks at Lavo. Not to sound snobby or anything but the food there very really overrated.
maybe or it could be James wants it to be quick and done with - having the other guys in there could drag it out and add a lot of sentimentality to the equation if its just Riley its a lot easier and right now James has some anger at Riley especially after the exit interview Riley had.
I forgot that he already met with Wade. Either way, I think the more Heat people are there, the more likely he's leaving. Lebron is no dummy. He doesn't want to blow people off on his way out the door.
