Bron is a better man that a lot of mufukkaz to be able to forgive Gilbert. I can't knock him for being a better man than most in that sense. But let's not act like Bron ain getting nothing out of returning to Cleveland.

Gilbert's letter did sound like some plantationish owner shyt, but on the flipside I'd probably be furious as fukk too. Catered to Bron and his boys during that time (them nikkaz had parking spaces with the players and rode on the team plane and shyt! :laugh: ). Also, gotta remember that Gilbert had the Cavs practice facility built close to where Bron lived outside of Cleveland too. To do all that shyt and the nikka couldn't even call you to say he was bouncing? I'd be mad as fukk too. And if you say you wouldn't be mad, you full of shyt.

The letter was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay overboard though and while it did sound like some plantation owner fury, he sounded even more like a scorned bytch to me personally. Gilbert didn't even get half a bar.... :manny:

Gilbert did fly down to Miami and apologized to Bron like a man though, so in that regards I can't bring myself to say I wouldn't forgive the man. Billionaire mufukkaz aren't in the business of kissing too many peoples asses and apologizing, so for Gilbert to man up and say he fukked up and overreacted way too hastily after the decision is something I can respect.

And they both win with Bron returning, it's definitely not one way.

Yea i watched this Today. She almost slipped up and called out some names..she had to catch herself :whew:

Tobe would have been the first name to slip. That nikka can hoop. But, if we were back in the 60s, he'd be on some c00n shyt in terms of not using his voice to speak out.

My negro sensibilities made me say "fukk that...I couldn't go back" when I first heard Bron returned to Cleveland. But then reading Bron's explanation made me change my mind. ESPECIALLY how Bron and his new deal basically has Gilbert in Bron's hip pocket.

Mature adults tend to do that from time to time. I understand where Laila is coming from though.

All Lebron had to do is make him apologize publically.

Dude did though.

Bron also said they had a great working relationship prior to that letter. Still...the shyt reeked of antebellum stink. I couldn't have done it. But Bron got Gilbert working with him now rather than working for him, honestly. Especially with NE Ohio probably now behind Bron. shyt is on Gilbert not to fukk it up. I don't think he'd have that elsewhere.

Exactly, cats don't realize the power Bron has now with this move. I understand a bit more of how people say that forgiving someone gives you the power over that individual. I can see it.
