Or the cigars available on every other block ...

I heard he's joining the Harlem Globetrotters.:r

You'd think it was a matter of national security the way it took over the important stuff like millions of gallons of oil spilling into the gulf....:confused:

I feel for the city of Cleveland.
Not only did LeBron stomp on it's heart but he did it on a prime time hour long special.

I agree and it's all to familiar with what Shaq did to Orlando when he bolted to LA.

Cleveland at least gave it their best to keep him.

Keep your chin up Cleveland.

As a Knick fan, going to start out what is most likely a biased post.

A few things on this special bothered me.

#1 "This has been a humbling experience"
Says the man who is having a prime time special to announce what team he is going too.

#2 "I have always been a loyal person"
Tell that to the fans who are burning your jerseys in cleveland.

This is a punk move on his part. Jordan, Magic, Kobe, Duncan, the greats over my lifetime MADE their teams winners. His legacy in my mind is forever ruined. Wade will always have one more title Lebron, one that he basically won on his own.

I feel for the Cav fans, you unconditionally loved this punk and he told you that you weren't good enough.

Just goes to show you that there is no loyalty in sports in the free agent age. :td :td

I am not a basketball fan at all, I am a Dolphin fan and that's about it. I will say he didn't say Cleveland as a city and it's fans weren't good enough. He said the team wasn't good enough to win titles. He is right.

Oh and I agree with your other two statements.

Glad for the Miami fans and since D Wade is my favorite player in the league him too. This development makes me wonder if Riley will coach a year or two for the Heat.

If Lebron's ego is granted statehood, it will be the 51st state.....

...but the 4th largest.

Man you guys are harsh....:r

Of course it is too bad for the fans of Cleveland.... But a player should go do what they want to do... If that is play with your friends and try to win some Championships....great. I don't think LeBron owes Cleveland anything....not the team, not the city.... Who are we/they to put those expectations on a kid?

As far as loyalty in sports.... That is such a joke....:pu Fans turn on players, owners dump players when it benefits them, bla...bla...bla.... Sports is business.... In reality, players are the only ones who have this "loyalty" expectation.


Though not a huge LeBron fan....I am excited to see what these three can do in South Beach.... And I say it again, I don't think this is the easy way... Chicago would have been the easy way.... That team is LOADED w/ LeBron....and still a favorite in the East without him.

I fear as a Utah Jazz fan, I will be going through this in a few years when Deron Williams bolts to Dallas.... I do not have a D. Williams jersey, but if I did....I wouldn't burn it that night....

Re: Lebron, Bosh and Wade on the same team
 
Let me add... I have to assume that the owner of the Cavs is the "buck stops here" representation of the Cleveland Cavaliers franchise and with his juvenile comments, I'd bolt that business as well. What an idiot....

This whole look at me people I am this important thing made me puke. That ESPN thing where he makes his decision made me lose alot of respect for him. I hope he understands that this is Wades team and not his. Wade has already brought a title to Miami without Lebron.:td

Even if He wins, This move will do more for Kobe's reputation, than it will his own. He will always be second fiddle to Wade.

I don't feel one bit for Cleveland losing LJ. Their loss, not his. Fans turn quite easily. Remember when they booed him during the series with the Celtics?

The man is quite possibly the best player in the NBA right now. He has won the MVP, it's his right to chase after the big trophy.

Re: Lebron, Bosh and Wade on the same team
 
All this talk about instant and multiple championships is BS. Look at the Yankees, they have been the highest payrolled team for many years now and they have only won one world series in years. Just because you have the best players doesn't guarantee success.
