So.. last night didn't go so well.  LeBron goes on National Television, and announces he will be leaving Cleveland to team up with Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade.  What a way to leave the city that has given you unconditional support. 

Thanks for screwing us big-time LeBron.  Not only do you leave, but you're so self-centered that you decide to hold the city hostage. 

Now, we have no chance of landing any respectable free agents.  Chicago already signed Boozer, and New York got Amare.  By keeping your decision to yourself, you have handcuffed the Cavaliers organization and put us in a very bad situation.  Time after time, you put yourself above all else.

LeBron knows the history of Cleveland.  The "Drive", the "Catch", the "Jose Mesa", and now the "Decision."  We thought you might be better than that.  I hope you fail miserably in Miami, and as Dan Gilbert put it, "take the Cleveland curse down south with you."

Ultimately, you leave Cleveland a disgrace and a failure.  You failed to win a championship, something you vowed to do.  When you did make the Finals and were matched up against the Spurs, you embarrassed the city by getting swept.  The last two years, you turned the sidelines into your personal dance floor and had the best record in the regular season.  But, when it came time to show up in the playoffs, you failed again.  Your performances in Game 2 and Game 4 were atrocious.  You honestly gave up. 

Kobe has to be smiling in this whole situation.  LeBron hasn't even won a ring, and just created one of the biggest media circuses of all-time for a crushing "Decision" to leave Cleveland.  This mis-management by "Team LeBron" will have negative repercussions throughout the rest of his ill-fated career.  Team LeBron is a joke.  The "LeBron Brand" takes a big hit here, as he now has to join forces with Wade and Bosh to win a championship.  He can't do it on his own, and will never be considered to be on Jordan's level.  Kobe is better anyways.

LeBron needs to go to Miami because he's not welcome here anymore.  He needs Dwyane Wade because on his own, he fails.  Skip Bayless has always been right when he said, "LeBron does not have the clutch gene."  He never did.  The unreal amount of attention he has received since high school has never quite been justified.  Sure, he might be the best "athlete" in the Association, but he is certainly not the best "basketball player."  Kobe won one with Shaq, and then without him.  LeBron couldn't win a championship in Cleveland with the Diesel.

The Miami Heat will undoubtedly be fun to watch this year, but they might not be as good as everyone expects.  3 players don't win a championship.  As of right now their roster consists of Mario Chalmers, Mike Miller who just signed, and a bunch of no-name draft picks.  The Celtics had the Big 3, but they also had Rondo.. and Perkins.. and Glen Davis.  Miami definitely has the flash with the new Big 3, but they don't have substance.  Miami will find out soon enough, just how short LeBron can come up when it matters. 

I hate Chris Bosh.  Seriously, hate is an understatement.  I'm not one to wish harm upon another, but either LeBron, Bosh, or Wade is going to go down with an injury this season.  Dan Gilbert's letter to the fans was priceless.  More to come on that later.  The Cavs owner seems more motivated than ever to bring a title to Cleveland.  As for LeBron, good riddance.  This city deserves better than an egotistical, maniacal, self-centered, underachieving "King" who quits and leaves when he fails under great expectations.  In my eyes, he's done this city more injustice than Art Modell ever did.  Am I upset?  Absolutely.  Should we be surprised?  Not really.  One thing is for certain; LeBron James was never underrated
