Why are we still taking about LeBron James leaving Cleveland?
by Shawn Brown
Okay, LeBron “King” James announced on national television three months ago that he was leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Miami Heat without first talking with team management. Team ownership and fans alike were appalled at the way that it was done and rightfully so. I agree with the majority. It was not the most professional way to handle the situation, but GET OVER IT! Why are we still sitting here trying to make this a story? It’s over. He’s in Miami. I think more time should be spent on where the Heat will place this season. Will they own the East or will it be Orlando or Boston? Okay, so what if he’s dancing around with his teammates on stage. If he was dancing around in Cleveland, would there be a problem? I honestly believe that if he handled things the way we say he should have handled them by meeting the Cavs management first, there would still be issues, they would just be different ones. As the season unwinds, we’ll know for certain if LeBron made the right decision. Until then, I say let the brother play and who knows, this might work out in the best interest for those three players (LeBron James Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade) whose lives will be affected by their decision to play together in Miami the first place. After all, it is their lives and their careers, right?
