Billboard campaign aimed at wooing James to Sixers

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio - The courtship of LeBron James has taken an Oscarworthy turn - toward Philadelphia.

Three billboards urging James to leave the Cavaliers and sign with the Philadelphia 76ers this summer as a free agent have been erected along Interstate 480, south of Cleveland.

The signs are inspired by the movie Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, an Academy Award nominee for best picture.
