i think lebron needs that kind of leadership.at thing for him, pat, to come and coach him. as a coach, wow, how could you walk away from that opportunity to be involved at that level, with that kind of talent around you? and to be able to not just take those individual pieces, but then to mesh them into a team and a team that could win, that's a great accomplishment. i don't care how good the players are. when you can take all those different egos and all that talent and then make it a team, that's what coaching is all about. >> steven, do you think pat riley will come down and coach? >> that remains to be seen. i want to apologize, i'm here in albany, new york, and i didn't hear him correct me. i owe him an apology. to answer your question directly, it's tough because it's best for pat riley to be the coach of this team. the problem is dwyane wade loves him as an executive but doesn't necessarily look forward to him as a coach because pat riley is such a task master, he wears and wears on you and guys want to save their legs for

he also coached a guy you probably heard of, lebron james.nd jonathan abrams, sports writer for "the new york times." gentlemen, welcome. greatly appreciate it. steven, you and i have talked about this over the years, publy, privately. let me put that to you. do these athlete have a responsibility to the community? >> i think they definitely do have a responsibility. but even more so, if you want to get paid, the reality is that if you want to be a role model, you want to go out there and get paid, you have to be a role model to the masses. you have to set an example that people would want themselves to follow or people would expect of themselves and expect of their children, et cetera. especially when you are put in the public eye. i don't think it's fair to them, but nevertheless, it's a responsibility that isn't going anywhere. >> coach, if there is a handbook to be written, one can argue michael jordan probably wrote the best one. but since this handshake incident, lebron james has really taken that responsibility for image, the responsib

there is no reason, again, that lebron should have stayed in cleveland. he wants to cement his legacy in miami with better players. but i think the idea of hosting a national special in which his people set this up with the espn, espn creeded the time to them t just came off a little sort of self-aggrandizing and narcissistic to me. >> woodruff: ken blackistone why do you think he did it. dow take him at his word that he just wants to win? >> well, i think he does want to win. and i think his people may have gotten in his ear and convinced him that cleveland wasn't a place to do that. >> woodruff: what dow mean, his people. >> well, the people who surround him, who run his marketing campaign who run his business efforts, all of those people. some of whom are long time friends of his. and i think you know, when you compare cleveland to miami, the palm trees to, i don't know what do they have, oaktrees and pe can trees in that part of ohio, i'm sure that that got the better part of him. and there is also another part to this too, he has been in a very close

lebron james on espn.here he is announce his dramatic choice where he was going to take his talent. he told it to jim gray. how did that happen? >> well, he is best friends and he is managed by a man who represents shim a man named maverick carter. >> rose: i know maverick, he's a great guy. >> he's an honorable upstanding guy with a whole lot of integrity. i approached him at game two of the n.b.a. finals at the staples center between celtics and lashgs and he was sitting with a man namedar i emanuel who is a super agent who is the president and the owner of william morris and i asked him how the free agency stuff was going to go on, they were sitting in the front row together, i approached them... i don't remember if it was the pre-game or half time and we got to talking about it and i said maverick, can i do the first interview with lebron james after he decides where it is he's going to stay and maverick said yes, that's no problem. well, i had had a history with lebron, i interviewed him once hen he w

>> lebron is. how ironic.i said, you know, how do you feel about if daddy came and played in chicago, and i was being serious. and he was like, okay, but who is going to play in miami? and i said, well, i don't know. he said, but dad, if lebron and chris go to miami, dad, i'm going to be mad. so i said, okay, how about if i join them, and he said okay. he liked that better. >> jimmy: what teams were wooing you? the knicks who -- >> the knicks. >> jimmy: did you laugh when the knicks called? because the knicks have this thing, it's so great to play in new york and be torn apart by the animals in the media. but it's not great and they're not going to be good no matter who comes there, right? >> i'm not touching that. no, no. i had the knicks, i had new jersey, miami and chicago. every one of the teams presented me with pretty much -- they tell you that you can make the most money in their city. that you'll be apart of a championship team. and the biggest thing is, just feel good to be wanted. >> jimmy: did you l
