I'm crying.

I'm fucking crying.

Save for 2016.

OMG Cleveland has the Heats draft pic next year. Fuck them.

Haha I just heard that. That's funny

 

[UnObtainium17]

I'm Coming Home

Jesus this song is so fitting. As if it was written for this moment for Bron.

 

[theWB27]

All the "Oh Lebron is such a great guy NOW" posts are pissing me off. He has always been a great guy. He has matured tremendously in the last few years and it has been noticeable for years now. But nooooo your damn irrational idiotic hate for the man has not let you seen that.

I always thought he made ONE mistake with the Decision. Other than that, nothing has happened to cause that hate.

 

[sooperkool]

I wonder what the terms of the deal are going to be.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

wooooooow Holy shit!

 

[Edwardo]

hahahhaha yes!

 

[Blablurn]

Remember when he said "I had to go back to my Cleveland days again" after one game where he went for a shooting spree?

He's coming back, yo!

 

[Jamie OD]

I think this piece of work Marvel did for ESPN back when LeBron joined Miami is now even more fitting in hindsight.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

lmao

Save for 2016.

OMG Cleveland has the Heats draft pic next year. Fuck them.

They're getting another #1 pick holy shit.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

There is officially no work being done in our office right now. It's just a carnival of stupid small talk.

 

[bronkonagurski]

Welp, the Central Division just got a lot tougher now.

 

[Glorified G]

Hopefully he'll actually have some patience and stick and not threaten to leave after every contract. He took the easiest path when he left for Miami. Playing with the arguably the best PF and best SG in the game. Now his next best player is Kyrie Irving who shouldn't have been an all star, arguably not in the top ten in his position and got outplayed by Isiah Thomas last year. The rest are overrachieving role players that got picked way too high.

It may take a while before they're contenders.

 

[Uno Venova]

Bars and restaurant owners near QLA must feel amazing right now.

 

[Busty]

Miami Heat fanbase just decreased by 80%.

I imagine that the Miami branches of GAP will also go bankrupt now that all those fair weather fans won't be buying crisp, white t-shirts anymore.

 

[watershed]

I like this move. It effectively shakes up the nba. The big 3 are done and will scatter in the winds. We've got a new landscape for next season. Now Melo to Bulls thru a sign and trade would make this free agency even more interesting.

 

[Edwardo]

Lucky. Nobody i'm working with even cares.

 

[commish]

So anyone know the length of the contract? I didn't see any details.

It's forever. There's no way he can leave Cleveland again.

[Ephemeris]

I honestly hope the cavs fail as a franchise. I hope cavs fans are happy the lottery has been rigged for them 4 years running.

:/ really

 

[agrajag]

so that Sheridan guy, vindicated?

I agree with you

Miami vs West is not...fun

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

Remember when John Calipari turned down eighty million and complete control(Coach AND GM duties) over the Cavs? That hindsight

 

[Plinko]

Does this confirm Cavs/Heat on Christmas day?

 

[Pastry]

If Melo goes to the Bulls I really think the Spurs have a decent chance of getting Pau. Plus Bosh to Houston, this next season will be fun.

 

[Lonestar]

So many old "Cleveland hates Lebron" images to 'shop into "Miami hates Lebron" images.

 

[Busty]

I'm crying.

I'm fucking crying.

The Good Wife's Emmy snub?

Wrong thread my man.

 

[Nemesis121]

Didn't the Heat fire everyone in there season/ticketing department 4 years ago?

 

[rekameohs]

It's forever. There's no way he can leave Cleveland again.

Of course there is. If he wins just one title there, he'll be a hero.

 

[Fjordson]

Aww RIP other thread.

Devil's advocate time, everyone says they love the letter Lebron wrote. If it was the same kind of letter but he was staying in Miami, would everyone really love it? Come on now...

No, 'cause fuck da Heat.

But for serious, why would there be a similar sort of letter if he was staying in Miami? Talking about going back home to Ohio and his history there, his mother and family, about helping to improve a young group of guys and being a mentor. Lots of what he wrote about doesn't apply to Miami.

See this is what I am here for, keep it coming.

Kevin Kernan ‏@WheresKernan 23m
At airport in Cleveland about to board. They just made major announcement: "Your attention please, LeBron James is returning to Cleveland.''

 

[Cheddahz]

I agree with you

Miami vs West is not...fun

Really wasn't fun, which made this past Finals series so much fun to watch (well, the fact that the Spurs basically ran the Heat home)

 

[DMczaf]

Wade taking the biggest offseason L in a long time.

 

[DietRob]

It's forever. There's no way he can leave Cleveland again.

Well, yeah. That's what I got from "The Letter" too but was just wondering if any specifics of the contract have been discussed.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Yes, the NBA wants a small-market team to succeed over, say, Chicago/LA/New York so badly that they've rigged the system.

You got it buddy.

 

[A-V-B]

Wow. This is actually pretty cool.

Props to Lebron.

 

[phanphare]

now hopefully McBob tells Miami to go fuck themselves and stays with Charlotte

 

[Scofield94941]

Im from cleveland and rooted for Lebron ever since he left. I stood up for him soooooo many times.. People have swore at me, yelled at me and even tried to fight me. Now I have to watch those same people say they like him again just because he brings winning back to the cavs. Im happy he came back but DAMN was it a struggle to always stick up for him

[The Lone Courier]

Damn dat title.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Fuck da Heat.

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

Yes, the lottery that brought them future HOFs like Anthony Bennett, Dion Waiters and Tristan Thompson.

 

[CountAntonius]

Keeping his Jersey number?

 

[3rdman]

Wow! Truly surprised and it looks like they privately made up...Wow!

I can't be mad though! 4 great years here and I believe the majority of Miami fans will feel the same...Grateful.

Best of luck to him and I REALLY hope Cleveland gets a championship...I've been there several times and they could stand some good sporting news for once.

Basketball in Miami is dead, there is a god.

LOL. Yeah, well at lest we have the memory of 3 chips and of yeah...we are in Miami. It could be worse!

 

[Skinny Pete]

Lebrons essay was very well done. He's definitely matured since 2010. Hard to hate on him now.

 

[MickeyPhree]

Fuck da Heat.

Grow the fuck up.

 

[hydragonwarrior]

To Ninja Scooter and the others who trashed me for saying months ago that LeBron would head back to Cleveland this year:

Hmph.

That's not enough man - you gotta quote their posts for more salt impact.
