Can anyone tell me if some Native American Tribe cursed the city of Cleveland?
Cleveland fans need to get over it. Yeah, I feel bad for them. But this is LeBron's career. Many of us have had to make the decision to leave home in deference to what's best for our career. The Cavs also could have gotten Amare last year if they had just been willing to part with JJ Hixon. Apparently he was too valuable to trade, but not too valuable to take off the bench during the playoffs. And they should feel fortunate that he was even there for 7 years? How often does that happen these days where a local prep star plays (at least some of) his prime years in his hometown? It was the luck of the ping pong ball bounce (and the Cavs tanking to get a better shot at the #1 pick) that even put LeBron there in the first place.
