I would get teamed up by all the Laker/kobe fans out here but didnt care, would still shove my point that Lebrons the best in the league. You should have seen my facebook posts, they would go as much as 50 threads long of me just arguing with countless Laker fans. When he left, i felt like the past 7 years i had spent arguing and cheering for him was a complete waste. Im only 22 and havent had alot of bad things happen to me, but when Lebron left i was heartbroken, as a fan of the game the fact he did this was just bullshit, i can only imagine if i was from Cle. I really felt bad for you guys as my only prospective was i was pissed at what he did for the game, and for his legacy. I def still root for you guys though and hope you guys draft derrick williams out of Arizona with Kyrie Irving...i think thatd be your Russel westbrook/KEvin durant combo for the future.T-Dot27https://www.blogger.com/profile/04759690000780797513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725935928853896260.post-25984811508145172942011-06-07T23:11:58.374-07:002011-06-07T23:11:58.374-07:00BRILLIANT.

I urge you to send this to ESPN, Jeff Van Gundy, Michael Wilbon, Steven A. Smith, Mark Jackson, Jesse Jackson, and all the other bridesmaids at the Wade-jaMEs wedding. I am so sick of trying to explain this to the folks I know who continue to say "move on" and "he had the RIGHT to do what he did, he had no help, he gave Cleveland 7 years..." It makes me sizzle. I have never cheered for a team (aside from Buckeyes, Browns, Cavs) as much as I am for the Mavs. Its personal.Bingspeakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10950496353942177164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725935928853896260.post-23675729138855757562011-06-04T08:12:47.852-07:002011-06-04T08:12:47.852-07:00First, thanks for the comments and the love.

Second, feel free to share this via Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and wherever else you like to post.<br /><br />@southdaj: I agree with your points about the team, and that's why I was especially surprised by JJ Hickson's Tweet after Game 1:<br /><br />@JJHickson21 S/O to the homie @KingJames!!! Go get you one bra!<br /><br />Now, I am not going to jump down his throat, but LeBron essentially said that he left the Cavs because he couldn't do it "by himself." So what does that make JJ? How is he not offended?<br /><br />Well, I guess he's not. But your point still stands. The Cavs had a solid, deep, flexible roster last year. They may have lacked another "superstar" (with Mo being second tier and Jamison and Shaq aging), but they had a ton of talent, enough that the Cavs were the favorites to take the title.Matthew Santorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06610653294285115946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725935928853896260.post-2440065260109502192011-06-04T07:13:32.128-07:002011-06-04T07:13:32.128-07:00Loved every word you said!

I consider myself a fair and good person, and I don't usually hate people, but I HATE lebitch. His arrogance made me not like him after his first year with the cavs. I pray that dirk and the mavs win this year.

The cavs did not just lose Lebron on our roster and then we went on to a terrible season. We lost three starters in shaq, delonte, and lequit, not to mention I only other 7 footer center in Z. Take any other team in the leauge and subtract all centers, 1 superstar and 1 additional starter and you get a really shitty team(bonus: take away the heart of your defense, Verajo, 15 games into the season). So all these "analysts" talk about how it was all lebron must not have had time to get off the knees and actually be honest. What a slap to the face to the rest of the cavs roster to go through this. This could be a rant for another day, especially because of his recent comments which booby(i know spelled it with a y, thats what he prefers) handled well, imo. Anyway, go mavs and we should all thank cavsformavs for making the finals easier to watch. <br />"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment." - Buddhasouthdajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08596095965424693693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725935928853896260.post-74171910716416394902011-06-03T13:47:11.512-07:002011-06-03T13:47:11.512-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Sabur7https://www.blogger.com/profile/08823922494422764436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725935928853896260.post-63942582521846859852011-06-03T10:17:17.718-07:002011-06-03T10:17:17.718-07:00how about #11: season ticket holders that had to r...how about #11: season ticket holders that had to renew just in case he came back<br /><br />#12: the downtown economy and the cleveland economy in general took a major hit here as we would have flooded downtown for many more years to see him play.<br /><br />#13: my son. the one who had lebron shit all over his room. trying to explain to him why all his lebron stuff had to come down was a difficult conversation. <br /><br />#14: his "home town" of akron: aren't they cavs fans too??????????<br /><br />i could probably go on...Irvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11197421546516554940noreply@blogger.com
