LeBron James: Four reasons why he must choose the Houston Rockets
By Neal Sharma
Reason #3: The city of Houston will invigorate LeBron James
Whenever I read these articles to talk about why a city is good for a free agent, I always see the kings of argument that talk about the benefits of the city itself at the end of every article.
I used to call those “pity reasons.”
To me, I used to see those excuses in attempt to make an article longer or to just so many reasons to try and make a player say “WOW!”
But in reality, a player is smarter than the average bear about his/her future and can detect BS reasons to join a team when they see it.
Ironically, this part of the article is actually important, contrary to my opinion, simply me responding to the 0.0002 percent chance LeBron James will see this article about why Houston has a chance of being a favorable city.
To be honest with you, I will admit that Houston traffic is a pain between the back pockets and the gas stations aren’t exactly going to win the cleanest room award any time soon.
But no lie, this place ain’t too bad.
I ain’t finna lie, Houston can cook. I am gonna start with that because that’s why people live and die, food. Houston is apparently ranked #5 in the country for food. I don’t know about other people but when I’m mad, sad, hungry, scared, bored, I tend to turn to food. Let’s hope LeBron James does the same.
Unfortunately, LA beats us in all of the categories when it comes to GDP and all of that economic stuff. But even though they win that department, that doesn’t necessarily show that Houston isn’t great in as far as a robust economy. The market of Houston, while not attractive as L.A. is ranked 6th in Nominal GDP in all of America.
However, I will state this. If you look closely at the Nominal Chart GDP mentioned in the blue, along with some boring math that may put you to sleep, you will notice that from 2016 to 2017, L.A. had a drop of 2.3 percent. Houston had an increase by 9.9 percent INCREASE during that same period of time.
JUST SAYYYYINNNN’!
