GONE.


Doubt anyone cares, but it should be interesting as "The King" has decided to rip the barely beating heart out of Cleveland fans and head to Miami to play ball with Bosh and Wade. Here is a little of the reaction in case you are unable to watch sportscenter....
Gilbert, who has owned the Cavs for five years, said he was most disappointed by James' behavior in the months leading up to the superstar's announcement that he is going to Miami to play with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. Gilbert said James never returned a single phone message or text since the end of the season and that the Cavs were not informed of James' decision until he went on the air.
Gilbert said Rich Paul, one of James' business partners, called the Cavs moments before the announcement.
"LeBron James needs to go to another team with two superstars already so he can win a championship," Gilbert said. "We will win a championship before [the Heat] do."
"It's not about him leaving," Gilbert said. "It's the disrespect. It's time for people to hold these athletes accountable for their actions. Is this the way you raise your children? I've been holding this all in for a long time."
Bitterness? Angry? Check! We'll see for sure if the so called prophecy by Cavs owner is correct. You can bet there is another side to this as well. The Heat will definately fill seats and they will definately be booed by fans and get the best games from there opponents. I didn't really watch a great deal of NBA before and that probably isn't gonna change because Jordan ain't playing. Jordan did it with Pippen, Paxson, Grant and Cartwright and later with Pippen, Kerr, Rodman, Kukoc, Harper, and Bill Wennington. Not exactly Chris Bosh and D-Wade. Well maybe Pippen.
