Tpoppa Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 His letter is actually classier than I expected from LeBron. Even if you didn't want him back it will be good for the city and the economy downtown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh1234 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 All hating aside, he's a good basketball player and so it's a good thing that he's coming back to Cleveland. Gets us some more media attention, etc. All in all, I'm happy about it. He's someone we can actually get behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 If you are an NBA general manager and you have an opportunity to get any all star in their prime...you do it...or you get fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 Does this mean we can NEVER, EVER, EVER, have all this crap about him again in every aspect of the news? In all honesty, does it matter? It's Cleveland, someone will have a season ending injury in preseason, and they will bomb, like always. You heard it here first. Not to mention(no offense to OP, I'm a diehard CLE fan in every aspect) but honestly, who cares? It's pro sports, has zero bearing on any one of our true lives. Again, Chris, I don't mean that against you, just in general. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 LeBron is still a whiny assholeLeBron is the best basketball player in the game currently I can let #1 slide to have #2 and possibly finally get a god damn championship parade downtown in my lifetime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, Chris, I don't mean that against you, just in general. The NBA has never even been on my radar. As a former die hard Browns fan, though, I can relate. When Modell move the Browns (subsequently Ravens) to Baltimore after he didn't get his shiny new stadium from taxpayers, I suddenly realized I'd been a chump. Easy to take when your 6 (which is when I started being a fan) - more difficult when your an adult. Since that time, I wouldn't give the smallest turd from my morning shit if the the NFL or NBA ceased to exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 Now...If the Cavs can get Kevin Love in a sign-and-trade without giving up Wiggins...we could have Kyrie, LeBron, Love, and Wiggins for the next 4 years. On paper, that would be the best 4 in basketball. (I was a Cavs fan long before LeBron). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 Love already said he is interested. The T-Wolves want Wiggins and a 1st round pick. Cavs offered Waiters, Bennet, and a 1st round pick. I bet they'll also throw in Tristian Thompson. We won't need him with Love playing the 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I will keep my grudge. He ripped our hearts out on National TV, for his own ego. I still wear the quitness shirt I had made with FLBJ on the sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I was a Cavs fan when our best player was Ron Harper...and Mark Price...and Tyrone Hill...and Ricky Davis...and big fat Shawn Kemp. The decision thouroughly pissed me off. I like the Cavs more than I dislike Lebron. Like it or not, if here wins a title here there will be a statue in front of the Q. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted July 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) He is a cry baby, and if i was a Cleavland basketball fan i would be disappointed in this news! This isn't directed only at you, because I know there are a lot of people who feel this way. When you posted this, had you read LeBron's letter? Have you read it now? I would strongly advise that everyone read what he had to say before making any further comments. I was of the mindset that LeBron does not deserve a welcome back - he left on bad terms, and at best I expected him to have to re-earn my admiration and support. After reading the letter, it appears as though he feels the same way I did. I respect his contrition, his candor, and the fact that he's not making grand promises. In short, the 25 yr old who left Cleveland has grown up a lot in Miami. If the letter is any indication, the boy who left is not the man who is returning.

I am sure that letter will make many in NEO feel better about the last 4 years. It was very well written, but before you put too much stock into it...I seriously doubt he wrote it. I'm sure he approved the final draft, but it was certainly written by his public relations/marketing team to help ease some lingering resentment. And it's working.
