Why do we count him as a free agent?

Okay, I know the legitimate, obvious reason we count him as  a free agent.  His contract is up at the end of the year.  I GET THAT!  But, honestly, does anybody feel that there is a chance he will leave Cleveland, especially if he loses to Golden State this year?  Outside of extremely pessimistic Cleveland fans, nobody thinks of LeBron as a free agent.  That's why everybody is talking about where Kevin Durant is going to go in free agency, even though every article ranks LeBron "higher" than Kevin Durant.  How many articles from this season can you find talking about where will LeBron go?  One, maybe two?  C'mon, give Kevin Durant some credit, and let this offseason be his.  Same with Dirk, and Tim Duncan.  THEY ARE NOT FREE AGENTS, BECAUSE THEY WON'T LEAVE THE TEAM THEY ARE ON NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!  So why bother counting them as a free agent???  He's not going anywhere, and if he does, all of the "evil LeBron haters" will exponentially grow.  SMH
