CLEVELAND (AP) -- A new combat-ready mural of Cavaliers All-Star LeBron James may be too much for city officials in Cleveland.
Design officials tabled a proposal Thursday by Nike to erect a 10-story tall mural of a bare-chested James. Over his left shoulder would be the words "Prepare for Combat," topped by the Nike trademark swoosh.
The city thinks the display should project a more positive tone and have a Cleveland reference.
The mural would replace one of James that's two years old and has become a landmark hanging across from Quicken Loans Arena. Promoters say James asked for a fresh look.
