The backlash LeBron received after The Decision (which I felt was merited) was the best thing that could ever happen to him. That first season in Miami changed him for the better. His entire demeanor and professionalism has changed since then. It made him grow up.

Heres the thing...

And I say this because I am one of the people I'm talking about.

If you hated on Lebron going into this season, and hate on him today, you lost hard. There is NO POINT in continuing to throw shade on this guy, he's a freakin monster and is having a Jordan 93/Shaq 99 type of season. If you are hating on it, you lost so just submit. You may think someone is better, thats fine, its opinion, but the type of anti-lebron movement that was big before...if you're still in that movement you've taken monsterous Ls this year.

Dan Gilbert is simply one of those people who gave up the fight.

:salute:

Why do ppl say shyt like this :stopitslime:
Every year there was talks of Cleveland trading for somebody.
If Lebron stayed, HE is good enough to get them that title.
They would of gotten Bosh or Wade the same year Lebron left and this Miami Heatles would be the Cleveland... heatles :guilty:

D.Wade hasn't been much more than Richard Jefferson 3ys ago status ever since Bron arrived. He could of found a similar sidekick, and had a better bench around him because they wouldn't of wasted all that money on a 3rd player.
We can also all agree that Bosh while a decent player, is not really a factor on why the Heat are where they are today
Because of that, Cleveland imo could of easily won it with Lebron by now...

Dwyane Wade has been top five in player efficiency rating every season since LeBron came but keep reaching.

Gilbert, before lastnight's game, tweeted:

Dude on his knees :laff:

Lebron might go back to Cleveland to redeem himself but I want that fukka (Gilbert) to be humbled for the b!tch that he is :russ:

Heat Owner's response:



You gotta love Micky. Not a single fukk is ever given.


Exactly what the hell does Lebron need to "redeem" himself from?:why: He made a BUSINESS decision to leavean organization and take his talents to a better situation. A situation that paid off with a Championship, finals and season MVP's, and a historic winning streak.

He has absolutely no reason to feel the need or any sort of "redemption".

Uhh No...


Wade already stated in an interview that there was "Not a Chance" he'd have signed with Cleveland. Bosh has made similar statements as well. If the big 3 were going to play together it was going to be in Miami. PERIOD.


And to say Bosh is "not a factor" is retarded:shaq2:

In reality he doesn't. But hear me out for a sec.

No matter how beloved he becomes as he gets better some will forever hold him accountable for is so called promise to bring a ring to Cleveland and his failure to do so. THat is why I never ever make promises. Not even the ones that are easy for me to keep. I wouldnt promise you that I would breath oxygen in the next 60 seconds. Yeah it's that deep :hmm:

I've been a Heat fan since 92 and after all the our struggles having a player of Lebron's stature come to my team was a sports gift from God. However I understand that home is home and sooner or later he may decide to go back home and I'd have no beef with it. He came to us as a Free agent. He's not like Mourning or D-Wade or Haslem who are (professionally) homegrown products. They are the intern who ended up getting hired and stayed.

Lebron and Bosh are our mercenaries. THey are hired guns/muscle. They were drafted and became professionals elsewhere and then made a business decision to move on. I wouldnt be surprised if they made another business decision to move on again. + You always have a sentimental attachment to your first, car, good job, girl, etc.

THAT is why i would not be surprised if he went back.

I live in the United States
:what: man shut the fukk up



Lebron never wanted to leave like I said
bytch you shut the fukk up :birdman:
Why do nikkaz think any "link" they come up with = fact :stopitslime:
Here's a fact, Bron and Chris was saying he was gonna stay in Cleveland most likely leading up to the whole "I'll tell you nikkaz in a month"
That contradicts your story just a lil bit. As for Bosh not wanting to go to Cleveland.. :lolbron: So the fukk what.
Thats like Clyde Drexler saying he's not gonna play in Houston.
Ok, then some other probably better nikka would go. Thats not even good enough. Its like a heartless Toni Kukoc saying "Nah Mike, you go to Detroit with me or the dream can't be bruh"
Lebron is the center of the basketball universe. Any player would want to play with him and win a ship. Why you think Nash and Howard are in LA right now?
He did. In fact, LeBron privately sought out SEVERAL players to come to Cleveland, but none of them wanted to....but you NEVER heard Gilbert nor any of those Cleveland fans mention that part of it. Likely because they don't want to face the reality about their city, which is that it is not an attractive market for FAs (bet the weather has alot to do with it).

That's not a diss, that's just the reality.
Its not reality because a basketball season consist of 82 games, 41 being at home.
A player would not need to live in the city they play for because a season is only so long, and you only there for half of it.
Most of the Wizards players don't live here. They rich enough to have houses they can chill at, but half the time they in a hotel across the country somewhere bruh
So if you talking about joining Lebron in Cleveland to win a title?
You think somebody would turn that down because Cleveland doesn't have a beach/nightlife/whatever it is you think they lack?
If that was the motivation, they wouldn't be a good complimentary piece on any title team... Thats reality :salute:

I never really understood all the Lebron hate in the 1st place. :manny: Lebron made a career move for the better. Most people if given the opportunity would have done the same thing to pursue a better career option
