The year, 2010.
LeBron James has left the Cavs and become the biggest, baddest, soon-to-be-Space Jammiestfree agent in the NBA.
The Knicks want him, and how do they venture to get him?
Through James Gandolfini, of course.
Who better than Jerseys finest to recruit James to New York?
According to Deadline,frequent30 for 30director Jonathan Hock helmed a ten-minute short that reunited the titular Sopranos.
We got those requests all the time back then and Jim Gandolfini, he did nothing.
And somehow, he agreed to this thing, which I was shocked by, Falco said.
I thought it was a prank when someone said Jims going to do it.
Alas, as anyone who watchedThe Decisionknows, LeBron did not wind up going to New York.
I couldnt believe that it didnt work, Falco said.
Not so much because ofThe Sopranos.
I just thought, its New York.
How does anyone say no to New York, for Gods sake?
Maybe LeBron resented that the short gave clarity toThe Sopranosintentionally ambiguous finale.
Ever the artiste, that guy.
