When LeBron James tweets, it becomes an event almost. On Tuesday night, James hosted a Q&A session on Twitter, and one of his answers to a question might intrigue Chicago Bulls fans.

There’s been one constant thorn in the Chicago Bulls‘ side for the past five seasons: any team that featured LeBron James.

Since 2010, four different Bulls teams have been eliminated by a James-led team, including this year’s postseason during the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

Despite the hatred from many Bulls fans (with good reason sometimes because LeBron’s just that good), James enjoys playing in Chicago, according to his Twitter account (@KingJames).

On Tuesday night, James hosted a Q&A session on Twitter, and the response to one of the featured questions was rather interesting:

Along with Chicago, James also listed Los Angeles, New York, Boston and Oakland, home of the reigning NBA Champion Golden State Warriors.

Sure, James is public enemy No. 1 in the Windy City on the hardwood, but most would admit that when James is in the city, it’s a playoff-like atmosphere every single time. Who could forget when the Bulls ended the Miami Heat’s 27-game winning streak in 2013? The atmosphere in the United Center that night was electric.

Hell, remember Derrick Rose uplifting the entire Windy City with his dramatic three-pointer at the buzzer in Game 3 of the Bulls’ series against LeBron and the Cleveland Cavaliers this past postseason?

Regardless if it’s been good or bad for the Bulls in the past against LeBron James, no one can blame James for listing Chicago as one of his favorite cities during his NBA career. Big-time players love playing on big stages, and not many stages have been bigger for James during his wonderful career than the ones he has played on in Chicago.
