LeBron James: "I'm coming home" - Decides to Return to the Cleveland Cavaliers

[zerophase]

Unreal, it really took some balls to leave the perfect life in Miami and go back to Gilbert.
He's the bigger man and this is one of the best stories in sports for a while.

Loved the Miami experience like his college analogy.

No offense but looking at the rosters... If I were Lebron, I would go to Cleveland too.

Looking down the bench: Wade with no knees, Bosh + no one else.
Irving (all-star PG), Varejao, Dion Waiters, potentially Love, Thompson... <-- better team.

The best side story that might come of this is the fact that Wade opted out of his contract.

Talk about being left blowing in the wind.

maybe wade going with Bron :_

Ray Allen to Cleveland. Book it.

Totally agree.  They are going to have to pay him, and it's going to set that franchise back for years to have that much locked up in Dwayne Wade.  If they don't pay him then I'll be ecstatic... he's my least favorite player in the league.

I'm sure they'll give him a decent deal. Out of sympathy if nothing else.

At least they've got Granger and McRoberts!

When the going gets tough, relocate.

Many athletes bow to their peers.  In this case, I think he listened to family.  Reports were his wife wanted to go back to Cleveland, and she may have had a big influence.

I believe this is the kiss of death for Love to Boston (which I don't mind).  Cleveland, if they desire, can spin Wiggins to Minny for Love now.  Irving, James, Love, Verejao, and Waiters is a pretty dam good five.  CJ Miles, Bennett, Thompson, and Dellavadova  off the bench.

Wow.  Miami could be horrible next year.

[Spilling Green Dye]

This news highlights just how fortunate the Cleveland Cavs organization is.  Not only did they get to have the best player for 7-years after drafting him #1 overall, through mismanagement and poor leadership their scumbag owner has gotten THREE #1 draft picks in the past 4 years AND now the best player to come back.  They are the ultimate "welfare" organization.

Good for Cleveland fans. I hope he delivers the city a championship.

[TheBig3]

We can always hold out hope that there is another 3 way with Minny and Cleve where we wind up with Wiggins

Hahaha, wow.  I'm sure Chalmers, Granger, and McRoberts will still get them to a 3 seed or so.

In the seven years I've been on this forum, I don't think I've asked for a TP once... but I'm surprised I haven't received a single one for bringing the LeBron James news to you guys lol.
