Hell, I will be yelling "LET'S GO (insert team name here)" anytime they play the Heat. But I expect only the Lakers, Magic, and Thunder will pose a real threat to them. |

I think it's funny that Cleveland, NY and Chicago all think Lebron is unimportant now, and they don't need him to win a championship. All that smack-talk when last night they were all staring at the tv hoping he said their team.
If he chose Cleveland, people would say he's doing it for money. If he chose NY or Chicago, people would say he's doing it for the fame. He makes the one choice that has the best chance of putting a ring on his finger, the single thing EVERYONE says a "champion" needs, and he gets burned in effigy. Crazy. Good for you Lebron. However, I'm still not rooting for the Heat.

Here's what I foresee:
Lebron and Dwayne will be like Shaq and Kobe of the Lakers. They will have the ability to click like its nothing, or clash over dumb **** like a bad pass during a shoot around. Bosh will turn out to be an above average center rather than a superstar. He did great in Toronto, but look at the people around him there. Every team needs someone to be the man, but as Ronald Flip Murray so beautifully demonstrated, that doesn't mean you're even average when playing with another star. I think Bosh's stats will fade in Miami in terms of points and rebounds. |

i dont understand why there is so much haterade going on... lebron never did anything bad during his career with the cavs... he tried his best to get them to win the championship regardless of who they teamed him up with... to think these guys have ego shows that you do not follow basketball at all... wade and lbj are the most unselfish superstars in the nba that's why this team will definitely work ... it wouldnt be as easy as they think to win the championship because bosh is still suspect on defense as a center ... but lbj and wade front court combo is just ridiculous...

What I do have an issue with is how he did it. It was probably the most selfish thing I've ever seen anyone do, a live TV special on where you're going to play. This is where we'd agree to disagree because he LeBron does have an ego. If he was going to leave, he could have leaked it out and not give Cleveland fans any hope, let them know he's going elsewhere. 'The Decision' was all about the spotlight, about how all the teams want him. IMHO I don't think he cared about letting them know, because if he did, there would be no need for the one-hour special. Very tasteless, it could have been handled with a little more tact. I liken it to hearing that one of my family members was in an accident, but instead of getting word from the hospital or paramedics, I hear it on national television for all America to see. Anyway, rant over. Ironically, despite all this, I'll still watch a Heat game. Whether they win or lose, I'll still watch. Seeing these three play together on the US team, I know they can whup some serious *** together. And playing Boston or LA in particular will be very interesting...I just dislike the way the Queen handled the whole affair, is all. Thanks...I'll step off my soapbox now ![]() |

I think this pretty much sums up how all fans in cleveland feel.

I thought he was staying when he was going to make a live announcement. I thought to myself he didn't have the balls to go to a press conference and shove it to the cav fans. Lol was i wrong! Would the team work, no one knows what I do know is that the East is stacked and boy the heat better have a good bench cause the magic, bulls and celtics are pretty deep team.

How is LeBron a traitor? Cleveland never gave him enough support to win a championship. Take him out of the game and they'd be lucky if they won. Why did they get so many wins last season? Hmm...I wonder
![]() I'm happy for him. I don't blame him for wanting to leave and go to a team that has a chance to win a championship. Its gotta be a sigh of relief for him. He doesn't have to carry the team anymore just to win a game. And who wouldn't want to move to South Beach? ![]() |

Very anti-climactic announcement if you ask me! Although, the prices for Thunder/Heat tickets are going to go through the roof here in OKC. I'll make sure I have season tickets.
