Lebron James confirmed what some people thought all along.

I may be taking it out of context, but it seems like Lebron pretty much said the Cavaliers got to the Finals by default, not because they were the best playoff team in the East last year.



"We're not that good. That's what everyone talks about. We beat Detroit. We didn't beat Detroit; Detroit beat themselves. Washington was missing key guys, and New Jersey didn't play up to their capabilities. Enough of the Cavs now.

"You all got me a little upset



Im sure most knowledgeable Cavs fans knew it all along, but some may differ of course. I know there were also some major heated discussion between Pistons and Cavs fans about last years series.

I think he was being sarcastic, possibly not but that's just me.

Re: Lebron James confirmed what some people thought all along.

I can't see him ever leavng the Cavs.. coming from a Pacers fan. I just think it would take the world by storm if he left and I just don't see it happpening because the Cavs will always have the benefit of being able to offer him the most money since he is already on their team so being over the cap doesn't matter. They would also probably never agree to trade him.

Re: Lebron James confirmed what some people thought all along.

It'd be nice for him to stay with his hometown team I can see Bron bolting for the big city. I think he leaves for either NY or Brooklyn if he doesn't resign with CLE, that's if either team has the capspace to sign him to a max contract. I mean, we all saw how much he loved the camera this past weekend, totally hamming it up. What better place than the #1 market in the US for maximum exposure? Not to mention that he's a Yankees fan that wore a Yankees cap to an Indians game and the new colorway for his shoes were inspired by the Yankees. I think he really looks up to Jay Z as well. I see pics of them hanging out courtside and at concerts. I think Jay is trying his best to influence Bron to play for his team.

I thought he was going to say that his real age is actually 33

Re: Lebron James confirmed what some people thought all along.

LeBron would be a perfect fit in Brooklyn, considering him and Hov's love affair

Someone made a very good point about why LBJ will not leave because of JayZ, I cant find the quote nor remember the statement verbatim, but he made a very great case why Lebron should stay in Cleveland.


I for one as a basketball fan in general would like to see Lebron play at the biggest market. Cleveland obviously is not short changing him with help, its just that the choices made have not been the best idea.

Re: Lebron James confirmed what some people thought all along.

It's not about Jay (well not primarily), read my blog. It's about finances. His endorsements multiply plus he might be able to get a bigger deal from Nike in New York. Lebron said he wants to be a billionaire, that's not going to happen in Cleveland.
