Would Cavs Fans become Knicks fans?

Jellybean, yea your right fella, New York City is the only place in the US where me and my family were flashed some ho's goods in mid day.

And the automobile club told us if we get lost to only ask a police officer for directions, and carry my wallet in my front pocket.

Detroit? Please.

As Austin would say, " Get that WEAK stuff outta here!"

It must really, really suck, hoping for 2010 to get here, while the Cavaliers are 41-11 and Cavalier fans are enjoying every minute of it.

You really must not understand that people usually are quite found of where they grew up.

If the Cavs had gotten Darko instead of LBJ, I think there is more than decent odds they'd be the Oklahoma City team.


I can't believe the Cavs fans who say they'd hate LeBron if he leaves. He's the greatest player in your franchises history and would have given his all for you for nearly a decade, yet that wouldn't be good enough to earn your undying affection? He should leave just because of that. It's no different than if a friend of yours were to decide to take a job in a different city because he felt it was time to explore a different opportunity. Sure you may not like it and it may hurt, but you know it's something they need to do and so you hope the best for them and support them every time they come back to town. If LBJ leaves and gets booed upon return, I think it would be the lowest day in Cleveland sports history.

it's not even CLOSE to the situation you described. Not. Even. Close.

We're going to win 60+ games this year...probably next year as well.

The Knicks on the other hand will shoot for a combined 60 wins between both seasons.

If Lebron wants to leave this for that, then see ya later bud, we did all we could...but an exit under these circumstances would just about guarantee that most of Lebron's Cleveland fans would stop cheering for him...if on the other hand he were to leave for the Knicks after back2 back 30 win seasons and they coming off of back2back 60...different story...

But then why assume he's leaving anyways?? The last time a big time FA came to NYC...who was president, Eisenhower??

The last time I can think of a big superstar bolting one team to another was Shaq. And back then, weren't the rules very different? Didn't LA come out of nowhere with a super duper mega offer that NY can't come close to?

Do you cheer real loud for Ben Wallace when we play the Pistons?

honestly, I was a knicks fan before a cavs fan because I lived in new york city before cleveland, I would continue to support both teams, I supported the knicks post-ewing so I would do the same with the cavs. at the same time, it would be hard to support the knicks(if they got lebron) because this would be a mega huge overpopulated bandwagon, it would suck for the real knicks fans.

I would rather have lebron stay with cleveland, and if bosh is unhappy in toronto then he should go to NY, but don't stack teams please and keep it with one superstar player, and maybe one more regular star player.
