    If I was a Cavs fan this is exactly what I want to hear but c'mon man, James made his choice let it go...WAY over the top.

    I'm absolutely amazed by this. And I swear to god, the whole night has brought me back to my childhood watching WWF wrestling. A good guy turned into a bad guy. His old friends vowed vengeance. The fans are going nuts. Children are crying. It's insane. I am not liking it.

    Seriously, is this the NBA or the WWF? Is Rowdy Roddy Piper going to appear in the next Lebron interview and hit him across the back with a chair? WTF is going on? This is like when Hulk Hogan turned into Hollywood Hulk Hogan and joined the NWO!

    God. They should just fire David Stern and replace him with Vince McMahon and be done with it.

    it apeaces a lot of cavs fans emotionally, but may have negative impacts.

    Lebron wouldn't feel as bad now for leaving the city, and may pull out some of his investment

    If that is an act of betrayal then all ( except David Robinson's) are conidered traitors.

    And there's more possibly coming. Dan Gilbert must know something about Lebron that absolutely no one knows.

    I thought the end of the video was pretty humorous.

    To me, this reads more like a pep talk to rally the city and keep up the morale. Its probably what Cleveland needs right now.

    This b****made tirade is the most unprofessional crap I've ever seen by an owner of a team

    I cant imagine Leslie ever approching something this childish.

    I can understand being angry, but to be so personal and insulting is sending a bad message to FA's around the league.

    Damn man get over yourself.

    LeBron made that craphole city and that craphole team relevant for 6 years.

    Yeah I agree. He probably wants the city of Cleveland to know that he isn't going to curl up in a corner and die because of this. What he said was pretty bold, but also, puts the Cavs fans behind him in an attempt to keep basketball alive in Cleveland. All he has to do now is try to convince players to come there.

    I'm glad Dan Gilbert did that, he showed he has a pair.. Lebron truly is a classless guy. How are you going to go on national TV just to slap Cleveland in the face. I'm not even a fan of Cleveland and I feel hurt.

    Lebron, Wade, and Bosh are all **** riders. I personally will NEVER root for them. Lebron knew all along he was going to team up with them, so why drag it out?? He did that because he is a attention w****. SO personally **** Lebron, Wade, and Bosh.
