GREENBURGH, N.Y. — LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers come to New York on Friday, the same day the Yankees will enjoy a parade through the Canyon of Heroes to celebrate their 27th world championship.
James and new teammate Shaquille O’Neal make their only Garden appearance in a game that will be televised on ESPN, and is sure to have a circus atmosphere surrounding it. James is expected to address a large media contingent about an hour before tipoff.
A big Bombers fan, James is happy that order has been restored to the Yankees’ universe.
“The Yankees are back on top where they belong,” read a text message James sent to Knicks guard Larry Hughes, James’ friend and former teammate with the Cavaliers.
