LeBron played everyone for fools.

He used and stepped on so many people.

I feel sorry for Cleveland, they gave him everything.
 
Lebron gave Cleveland 7 years and boosted their economy, he owes them nothing. Cleveland goes back to being the "mistake by the lake".
 
no one posted this here? i havent seen the cavs thread. a lot of lulz in this one:

Open Letter to Fans from Cavaliers Majority Owner Dan Gilbert

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;

As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.

This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up culminating with a national TV special of his "decision" unlike anything ever "witnessed" in the history of sports and probably the history of entertainment.

Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.

The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working, loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.

There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be communicating much of that to you.

You simply don't deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

You have given so much and deserve so much more.

In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:

"I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF-TITLED FORMER ‘KING’ WINS ONE"

You can take it to the bank.

If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our "motivation" to previously unknown and previously never experienced levels.

Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.

Sorry, but that's simply not how it works.

This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown "chosen one" sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And "who" we would want them to grow-up to become.

But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as the antidote to the so-called "curse" on Cleveland, Ohio.

The self-declared former "King" will be taking the "curse" with him down south. And until he does "right" by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.

Just watch.

Sleep well, Cleveland.

Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day....

I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will be directed at one thing and one thing only:

DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue....


Dan Gilbert
Majority Owner
Cleveland Cavaliers
 
People enough with with this legacy BS. Jordan won all 6 titles with Pippen (top 50 player of all time). Bird had great players surrounding him throughout his career when he won titles, Magic had Kareem (albeit later in his career) plus Worthy, Scott and other good role players during his tenure, Kobe had Shaq for the first 3 and Gasol for the last two titles. You people harping on this tarnished legacy piece need to stop being parrots and regurgitating what the media keeps saying. The best player Lebron has had in 7 years is between an aging Shaq and a 34 year old Antwan Jamison, glad he left before his career ended up like KG.
 
The Miami Heat is like the Monstars now ... but we all know who won in the end. The team that Jordan built.
 
Colangelo is a freakin moron. Why didnt he S&T Bosh and take back Beasley? God knows how badly we could use a player with 20 and 10 potential.
 
At the end of the day, it really is all about championships, though.

Like Skip said, nobody cares Kobe quit during the Suns series, ripped Bynum, wanted out of town.

You win a championship, all is forgotten.

Superstars for the most part are measured by how many. Not how many with who as their teammates. Rings are rings.
 
Bird...Jordan...Magic and Kobe (for the last two) were the LEADERS of their team



And everyone needs help no denying that...NBA is a 5 player game...not 1

This aint about Bron no more. He's cemented what rank he is as a player. He'll play Robin to Wade's Batman and Bosh will be Alfred.
