They own Miami's 2015 pick, unprotected. if D-Wade is the only flag-bearer left there it could very well be possible.

Good for Cleveland fans.

Terrible organization lucks out, but it goes against the Heat, so I'm impartial.

Here is hoping Cavs fans have been served their humble pie and we don't see the return of RealGM 5 years ago.

How does LeBron winning in Cleveland impact his legacy? It's a boon to it and would definitely justify his decision to return imo. D Wade and LeBron being opponents again should be interesting.

disenfranchised wrote:He quit on Cleveland to chase titles in his prime. Now that the Cavs have stockpiled talent, he quits on the Heat to chase titles in his prime. 2 rings with a super team after promising 7-8 is a complete failure. The whole super team thing was a failure and the Spurs absolutely destroyed them and made Lebron quit.

This beta will NEVER enter my top 10.

Kobe and Duncan :clap:


What do you get out of posting the same old hate-filled rants multiple times in every Lebron thread? :lol:

You don't seem to have an opinion about anything else...I don't think I've ever seen you write anything but slight variations of the same old vitriol. You have a weird obsession, dude. You hate Lebron, you've made your point, we all get your schtick. Maybe you should move on to players/teams/things you actually like.

miami fans be jumping of bridges right about now. they team went from 4 straight finals to bottom 3 team in a horrible east.

East gets more interesting. its WIDE OPEN right now as i think even if the cavs get love they wont be dominant in year 1 and would have some growing pains/road bumps(health with kyrie/love, defense with kyrie/love, and just gaining chemistry)

Sweet, sweet justice. No more "u mad bro" "deal wit it" posts :lol:. Some true heat fans are rational though.

Hopefully someone has an archive of idiotic heat posts from the past week.

Classy article by LeBron James.

i am glad he is going home but notice how Andrew Wiggins was not mentioned?

Could a Kevin love deal be coming?

This is pretty crazy but I'm not surprised after the Jack to Nets trade. Cleveland is gonna be doing a lot of trades soon, but it's interesting to see how this will go. Feel a little bad for Wiggins and Bennett but they take a seat to the best player in the game.

So now, how the hell does Riley even put a roster together? That's a LOT of cap-space to fill with few free agents left. His presser after losing the finals will go down in infamy as a terrible "decision". I fully believe Riley burned the Lebron bridge.

This thread just needs to be all gifs of Ron Paul saying it's happening.

I know people have been saying for days Lebron would go back to Cleveland ... but ... wow.
