Shocker because you think that the heat would do anything to hold Lebron on their team

Hey, he grew up in Northeast Ohio. He wants to return there. Either way, I know the city of Cleveland is more than excited with him going back to the Cavs and Jhonny Manziel going to the Browns.

I will give him props.....in 2010, he came across as a self-centered jerk who didnt have the decency to tell Cavs management he was leaving....

This time, he handled it much more maturely and professionally, and recognizes that the current Cavs are a work-in-progress...saying he wanted to bring a world championship to a city that hasnt had one in 50 years was a very classy touch, and was willing to mentor the younger players......spoken like a man!

Awhile ago, I might have had a reason to hate on LeBron. Now? I simply can't. Even in his last two years with Miami, his personality and demeanor changed so much from what we saw in 2010. Since Chris Bosh re-signed with the Heat, and who knows what Dwyane Wade is doing, it's sad to see the Big 3 in Miami go away, but at the same time, it definitely is going to be exciting to see a new big 3 in Cleveland in the 2014-2015 season. Heck, LeBron and Kyrie Irving is already a lot of talent for the Cavaliers! I think Cleveland signed Kevin Love from the Timberwolves as well. Cleveland is definitely going to be a team to watch this year, that's for sure.

Actually, they haven't signed Kevin Love yet:
