Tough to take. Not sure how to feel. The end of an era for the 2nd and final time. I stopped watching the NBA the first time he left and will likely do it again.

LeBron was a once in a lifetime generational talent that was from here. We will never see nothing like this again in Cleveland.

I don't think I am going to be able to stomach another NBA game until LeBron retires. I really wish things did not go so wrong for us in the final 2 years.

It all started with Durant going to GS once that happened it ended all hope for the Cavs to win another championship. Pile on letting our GM that brought us a championship walk then sending Kyrie away and you just knew things were never going to be the same.

Hopefully someday the Cavs will once again be a championship contender but that seems light years away and will never again be the same. We finally had our own Michael Jordan and he was from home.

I want Boogie to stay in NO and them to get Ulis to back up Rondo and keep Rondo. I could really cheer for that team. Lebron is a great player but I can't stand his whiny ***. A sign and trade with Boogie going to LA and Randle coming to NO would be interesting as well.

I think lebrons journeyman ways are what will prevent him from being “all time greatest”. I don’t blame him though Cleveland is a dreadful place to live and he is ultra liberal so LA will be a better fit. Good luck to him.

It’s on ESPN.

Dude isn’t even gonna make the Finals now. May not make it to the WCF, even, if Houston stays intact.
Where's Jerry West when you need him? Oh I forgot! They don't have him anymore! As a Laker fan, I know one guy doesn't win you a c'ship. West got Shaq to go with Kobie and then added a player here and there. It's a team effort. JMO

In my eyes , I'm barely an NBA watcher , the whole lack of loyalty just bothers me . I grew up in the 80's .. Pistons , Bulls , Celtics Lakers -- none of those guys would ever consider joining the enemy . Or changing teams so flippantly .
The Lakers are Cleveland's enemy?

Flippantly? Isn't this his 3rd team in 15 years of playing?

MJ started the whining, Spurs started the flopping, Tim Duncan probably the biggest "whiner" of all time, etc, etc
MJ didn't whine, didn't flop and didn't argue complain to the refs after nearly every play. Duke started flopping long before the Spurs did, and I don't think Tim Duncan is much of a whiner. Other than that, I agree with your post wholeheartedly.

MJ did start the complaining to the refs, Manu pretty much brought flopping to NBA, and Tim Duncan thinks he never committed a foul in his life. Other than that, I agree with your post wholeheartedly

Tim Duncan is the biggest whiner of all time. He never committed a foul in his life. Any time he was whistled he ran at the ref, grabbing his head with both hands and his mouth wide open in disbelief.

I can't wait for that circus. You guys do know Zo is already better than Lebron right now right? If not just wait until Lavar tells you and the rest of the world.

And coming off of injury or not, Boogie is not going to be one of those submissive players James is used to playing with.
Mods please ban Poe for having a hot wife and making too much damn sense. Please force him to show more pics. TIA

You must be young. Rick Berry complained constantly. Michael only complained about the Pistons because they were trying to injure him, Duke was flopping in the 90s and Tim Duncan doesn't complain as much as Lebron.

This move ain't about basketball imo. At least not his career. I have been a fan and wondered why he had all these haters. Pretty clear now why folks feel the way they do about him.
I personally don't care because I don't really care about the NBA.

I think Lebron complains more but I have watched far more Lebron games than I have Tim Duncan games.
