Lebron to Miami
 

Weak.

It's so cool to watch someone descend in to douchebaggery while also becoming the most despised and/or hated person for a large percentage of the population while on live TV.

Of course, as much as I hate ESPN and LeBron for doing this, I sure as hell have been watching for the past 2 hours.

The train wreck has been awesome.

All is normal again in the sports world, all Ohio teams suck again!


Also, I agree that its weak, I mean, why hold a huge press conference just to break the hearts of all the Cavs fans. It sucks, but I certainly wont be burning his jersey.

I never thought I would say it, but I found one quality that Mel and Lebron share: a true love for Cuban women.

I've always been in awe of Lebron. But Lebron has tarnished himself. Jordan turned the Bulls from the lottery to 6 championships. Lebron's legacy will now be as the guy who turned his back on his home state to find an easier way.

I cannot believe that the Heat last traded at 2.76 (+176) to win the title on Betfair. Chris Bosh can put up numbers in December against the Clippers. But in a 7 game series against Garnett, Gasol or Dwight? They will get raped in the playoffs with Beasley and Bosh at the 4/5. Look at it this way; the Lakers' 6th man is Lamar Odom. The Heat don't have 6 players under contract.

The King is dead etc.

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;

As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.

This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up culminating with a national TV special of his "decision" unlike anything ever "witnessed" in the history of sports and probably the history of entertainment.

Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.

The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working, loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.

There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be communicating much of that to you.

You simply don't deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

You have given so much and deserve so much more.

In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:

"I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF-TITLED FORMER 'KING' WINS ONE"

You can take it to the bank.

If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our "motivation" to previously unknown and previously never experienced levels.

Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.

Sorry, but that's simply not how it works.

This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown "chosen one" sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And "who" we would want them to grow-up to become.

But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as the antidote to the so-called "curse" on Cleveland, Ohio.

The self-declared former "King" will be taking the "curse" with him down south. And until he does "right" by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.

Just watch.

Sleep well, Cleveland.

Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day....

I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will be directed at one thing and one thing only:

DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue....



Dan Gilbert
Majority Owner
Cleveland Cavaliers
