Magic coach Stan Van Gundy is known for being candid, but he was especially so on Wednesday.

In an interview with the Orlando Sentinel, Van Gundy opened up about the special ESPN will air on Thursday night as LeBron James announces where he'll play next season and other free-agent topics.

"It takes 15 seconds to say, 'I've decided to stay in Cleveland,' but we've got another 59 minutes and 45 seconds to, what? Promote LeBron James? As if we don't do that enough," said Van Gundy, who will not watch the special.

Van Gundy added that he wasn't surprised to hear that Chris Bosh will join Dwyane Wade in Miami.

He said Bosh has been following Wade around "for two weeks like a lapdog."

Van Gundy added that while free agency has gotten out of control, guys like Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant were still able to get contract extensions with little fanfare.

"It's gotten ridiculous I think. It's really I mean it's almost like a parody of itself this whole situation now," Van Gundy said.

"Look, the guy's a great player and wherever he goes, my bet would be Cleveland, that place will be excited. But an hour long special?"

As much as I want LeBron in Chicago, this whole hour long thing is a egomaniacal joke and embarrassing. He's going to come off looking like a jerk whether he stays with Cleveland or goes elsewhere. Just call it off now and make your announcement tomorrow morning.

ITS ALL ABOUT MEDIA ATTENTION

all stars from pros to hell even high school

they make huge deals out of making decisions

there wont just be a report

they want a big giant table with a special on ESPN or ESPNU and then they ramble and the decision is like 45 min after the set time.....

and then SOME people make a decision they aren't comfortable with because they are being pushed on by the surrounding crowd fans depending on where they are

an example of this is a kid name Terrence Jones, real good basketball player in the West Coast, going to be a freshman in college next year,made his decision at his high school they milked the decision it took forever,and his buddy Terrence Ross was there who was going to Washington U and he was wearing all that gear and the fans there wanted him at Washington...so he cracked and picked Washington,but that wasnt his final choice, so he re-evaluated and went to UK with Cal(even tho this whole situation was kind of slimy, because well its Calipari)

anyway my point is

alot of stars do these long ass milking decision special media attention crap

and well they're pointless
