What an absolute cop-out. LeBron can't win a championship on his own so he has to go run to Miami with what appears to be a sure thing. What player has won a title on their own? Thank you, I'm so sick of that illogical argument. No one does on their own. People wanted James to do the impossible. As long as he gets his rings, they're his rings. I don't care who he plays with. He just made the smartest or second smartest decision he could have.

I hope this means we won't have to see Spike Lee at anymore games.

I shall laugh mightily when the Heat don't live up to expectations. Somehow LeBron has made me a fan of Kobe, in the sense that I want to see him stick to these chumps every single year.

He coulda went to Chicago and along with the nucleus they have there, competed for a title. Instead, he basically cried SOS and made some shady pact with Wade and Bosh. My heart bleeds for Cleveland fans right now. (Also, somewhat for NY fans, who were beat over the head with Lebron to NY stories for 2 years)

As long as he gets his rings, they're his rings. I don't care who he plays with. He just made the smartest or second smartest decision he could have. We're supposed to sit here and swallow the hype, that LeBron is the best basketball player in the world. The agenda this whole off-season has been, "wherever he goes, they instantly become a championship contender." Why is that? How many rings does LeBron have on his fingers? The best players in the world are supposed to be capable of winning with whatever supporting cast they are given. But LeBron has proven, time and time again, that no matter what you give him, he can't close it out. And it's not just that he couldn't win it on his own, it's that he has now refused to win it on his own. He doesn't have the championship killer instinct that Bird, Magic or Jordan had. Do you think any of those three would have bailed on their teams whenever a sure thing came up? Hell no, because those three were natural-born winners who could look teammates in the eyes and say, "Piss off, I'm doing it on my own tonight." And they would do it on a routine basis. LeBron doesn't want to be the best, he just wants to be perceived as the best.

So does this mean that Riley is going to take over at coach again?

I can't help but laugh at Cleveland sports fans. I feel sorry for them, but I'm still laughing. They just can't catch a break. And when they do, they fumble it.

I wonder how long it will take Phil Jackson to leave LA for Miami. Days? Minutes? Seconds?

LeBron doesn't want to be the best, he just wants to be perceived as the best. I don't think that's fair. We don't subtract from Magic because he won with Kareem or Kobe because he won with Shaq. If he wins the championship, that'll be enough IMO.
