Thursday, December 2, 2010, the self-proclaimed "King" returned to his old house in Cleveland. This was being talked about as though it was for the NBA Finals. Lebron James was praised by Clevelanders for 7 straight years before he turned his back to "take his talents to South Beach."
Lebron's hour long special, "The Decision" used to announce to the WORLD where he would call home for the 2010-2011 season was nothing but a back stabbing to the people who loved him most. From "The Decision" in July until the Homecoming Game in December, Lebron's name was in the media day-in and day-out.
The issue with Lebron was brought up many times in 
class and everyone wondered what he would do during his return. Is he going to show up? How will he react to the crowd? Will the Cavs be aggressive on a foul? Well the answer was simple, nothing. The Cavs showed up for the first quarter and got the crowd going wild. However, the crowd more-or-less died down while they watched what Lebron did for 7 years in wine and gold, take over. Without playing in the 4th quarter, Lebron's stat line read, 38 points, 8 assits, 5 rebounds. Although these are exceptional numbers, the media continued to express how he "embarrassed" Cavaliers fans. However, Cleveland fans should know best, that is just typical Lebron and the only other time we have been "embarrassed" with Lebron dates back less than a year ago during game 5 of the Celtics series.
1. I am jealous that you got to 'witness' the return of Princess James.
ReplyDelete2. I held out hope until the last quarter.
Truthfully- he straight up embarrassed the Cavs. He played like LeBron. He wined like LeBron. He celebrated like LeBron. We should be proud of one thing- We raised the King.
On another note- This was a great way for the cities of Akron and Cleveland put their differences aside and support a common cause- the despise of our once-honored child prodigy.
Go Cavs. Go Browns. Go Indians. World Champions- 2097.
I don't even know where to start with this one. I will say that watching that game was very emotional and I was fired up as if I were in the arena myself. I actually had the opportunity to get tickets for the game but had I went, God knows what I would've done to someone in a Heat jersey! The loss itself wasn't the disturbing part of the night. The thing that really pissed me off was that our players seemed to lay down after a while and just didn't play with that fire they had in the first quarter. The lack of hard fouls and the fact there were no techs or ejections is just unbelieveable. Oh well, maybe next time.
ReplyDeleteIs that you burning his jersey?
