We have a saying over here in England and that's nobody is bigger than the club. In essence it means that no matter who comes and goes no one person means more than the logo on the chest and thats goes for all time greats to guys who just keep the team ticking. I couldn't be more grateful for the joy LeBron gave us the last 4 years but if in his heart he wanted to go back and repair wounds in the place he grew up in, played in and unceremoniously left to come to us then there is nothing wrong with that whatsoever. I wish LeBron success because he's potentially the greatest ever when he hangs up his jersey for the final time.
There is no need for anyone to be down, we won without LeBron, won with him and i'm certain as long as we have A+ guys like Riley and Arison we'll win again. Besides as Dallas ruthlessly showed us in the first year of the big 3, just because you have all the tools doesn't mean you get it all, LeBron knows that better than anyone and if there ever was a team and city that needs all the help it can get then it's Cleveland. He's not guaranteed anything just because he went back, they have a backroom that doesn't know how to draft, doesn't know how to work the cap well and doesn't exactly treat it's coaches too well. Miami is not like that and is exactly why they'll be in the mix for years to come.
Do not be surprised if the Heat come out on top in a playoff meeting against the Cavs next year. Onwards and Upwards from here!

The Spurs show it's not about who is on the team, it's about how well you play as a team. On paper they aren't a top team, yet they pulled off a crazy offensive run with the players they have and won the chip. That's what makes me confident with this team! (yes yes, I do realise the difference between the coaches)
