Sorry Cleveland. I am still shocked that he did this to you guys. Can't wait until Wade breaks down in two years and everyone realizes that Bosh is a career loser.

All this guy did for his entire life is pick front running teams (Bulls, Yankees, and Cowboys), while claiming that Akron was his home. I hope LeFraud blows out his knees.

Kevin Durant just resigned with Oklahoma City. It is possible to keep a FA who cares about the city. LeBron was about LeBron and the "Big 3" alliance will be tenuous at best. I feel good about where we are headed.

All Clevelanders, we need to go out this weekend and support our local establishments. Go to our restaurants, bars and other businesses. You guys from out of town, we have a lot to do here, come on down. Lebron was not the only thing to do here. We're not a great, booming town, but, we're not as bad as they made us out to be. We're a great city... and we always come back!

What? You just lost your franchise. You will probably really suck for 5 years. You guys should all take turns **** Lebron James' mom....

I agree with u 100%. A true star gives his heart to the city and doesnt give up on those who have cared for him throughout his career. A.I had heart, Lebron doesnt

I knew he was going to do this since last night, when I became convinced of it. Yes, he went on national TV and he basically stabbed Cleveland in the back. His 2nd announcement about giving proceeds to Akron & Cleveland B&G club and 3 other cities... that, along with his statement that "My real fans, I know they will understand, and root for me." That crap, was just that... the stuff you flush down a toilet.

To think that for all these years I have been blinded, and conned into believing that he was actually a guy that might surpass Jordan someday. I guess now I see things from the viewpoint of Laker fans, and what they've been saying for years. But I, like you, were blinded by the hope that something was changing for Cleveland.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

I'm only partially confidant that Gilbert will keep the Cavs in Cleveland. Seattle is a bigger market, and he can own the Casinos without having the Cavs play in Cleveland... he does live in Michigan afterall.

As long as the Cavaliers stay in Cleveland, I will be a fan and remain hopeful. But we will all need to adjust our thinking and goals now that LeCon has left the team. We'll have to come up with different scenarios, and look for young players to develop into great players. And possibly keep Shaq, so we can use him to knock LeBron's teeth down his throat.

Yes, I'd cheer mightily if that happened.
We the People...

He would have been restricted FA so not much choice other than to get that max contract knocked out.

Interesting choice as well since he was once a Sonic til the whole team up and left for dustier pastures.

I really hope you guys beat the Heat when they come to town, probably be one of the best moments in the NBA next year.

I just want to build a physical, nasty team that will beat up the Heat every time they come to town. Only Wade is tough enough to fight back.

The city telling the team to take a hike? Really? Time for you to sleep it off. Its called Cleveland, not Lebronland. We have a great owner who isnt the type to just fold up the tent and go away.
