I don't disagree but...

I think Dan Gilbert is brilliant. He is trying to take Cavaliers hate into support.

In either case, I fully believe this was anticipated. LeBron calling his program "The Decision" and driving the dagger in National TV.

Now Gilbert is fighting back.

I'm a Hornets fan and I hate Boston so where does that put me?

If LeBron really wanted to win a championship though, he'd go to Chicago.

I don't really get the hate for teaming up with Wade/Bosh...

I mean I pretty much hate LeBron...and hate the way he did this to the other teams involved and of course he was his typical "look at me I'm better than you" self...

but this is a smart basketball move (though not as smart as Chicago would have been IMO)

he stayed true to his word about winning being the most important thing

no hate here for going to Miami. Will be fun to watch, and I'll be rooting for them to lose

LeBron wants to win a championship C'mon! P.S. Dan Gilbert is a sell-out old man who has no respect for without LeBron James he probably wouldn't have a job!

Guy owns a basketball team. I'm pretty sure he has money coming in from somewhere else as well.

They'll certainly sell out for the first few weeks of the season, until the people realize that the team isn't very good and all the hatred towards Lebron won't transform that team into a winner.

Would Lebron still be labeled a "coward" had he gone to the Bulls?
