Cavaliers in the dark on LeBron James decision

If James has made a choice, Cleveland has not been told.

The Cleveland Cavaliers do not have an idea of when LeBron James will announce his decision or what team he will sign with, according to a tweet from USA Today's Sam Amick.

James was rumored to have an announcement at 3:30 p.m. EST on Thursday, but the hour came and went without any movement outside of his home in Bath Township, Ohio. James is weighing his options between returning to Cleveland and re-signing with the Miami Heat.

The entire NBA world is waiting on James. Carmelo Anthony has reportedly decided on waiting until James makes his move before figuring out what to do with the offers he has from suitors, including the New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers.

Heat teammate Chris Bosh has also been waiting in the wings, but will sign with the Houston Rockets -- who have extended a 4-year, $96 million deal -- should James decide to return to his home state.

For now, basketball writers, fans and people in both Cleveland and Miami are waiting with baited breath as James ponders on how to shift the balance of power in the Eastern Conference.
