The fact that LeBron still came back to Cleveland after all these shenanigans is just beyond comprehendible.

[@Twomps]

He went back to shove that letter up Dan Gilbert's hasoosh

[@merhaba-nu7qq]

It is not shenanigans bozo. Omg this person doesnt even know how to show reaction 😂😂😂😂 what did you think? They will act normal after what he did? Have a soul robot omg

[@qinghe6511]

He came back because wade got old and bosh got hurt, and Cleveland has 3 1st picks

[@eljay6714]

@@merhaba-nu7qqtheir energy should have been directed at management. When you fail to put proper pieces around him what did you expect? Him to stay and waste his career? A player owes an organization absolutely nothing.

[@Gabriel-sh3ms]

Lebron literally showed the cavs 'this is what it looks like when yall dont have me". Literally the same lineup williams, jamison, parker, gibson except no lebron and then they get absolutely demolished and win 19 games that year when they had won 61 the year before with lebron

People not around in 2010 or old enough to remember how much of a big deal Lebron leaving was will never understand. Now they say who cares, back then, it was a very big deal.

[@welliecross2903]

100%. He had a whole ESPN special on his decision. It was that big

[@nsmith3128]

Facts. I had never seen people burning jerseys before. They had to up the security for this game. It was that intense.

[@Julian-rt9qs]

Huge deal. As a fan, I was so fuckin mad that this nigga took an HOUR-LONG BLOCK, LIVECASTED ON ESPN To tell us he was leaving Cleveland for Miami. Like, you couldn't just tell us real quick and be done? Lolol

[@derrickrankinjr2798]

Nobody understand it more than a person who is from Ohio💯

[@plainsimple244]

Honestly, this is one of the best games he's played...flawless and took his time while just producing 100%...totally free on the floor and it's sick how he got treated badly; I just think he took that hatred and turned it into gold not caring and tuning everyone out ...I really think this game helped him mentally...it was good to see.

[@tr3y4]

Butt hurt fans 🤣 The booing this game was louder than the cheering when the won the championship 😂😂

[@cameronchesters5300]

Tbf they won the championship at Golden State, not at home.

[@MistahJay7]

You know you've made it to the top when you've got 20 thousand people Booing all at the same time as you answer back with 38 pts and blowing them out there own building as the Boos start getting quieter and quitter till its complete silence. Legendary shit

[@khoado123]

I watched this live and i got mad anxiety because of how crazy the crowd was. Some dude even threw a battery at the bench.

[@sirsmokealot3847]

LeBron didn’t take it personal and got them a championship

[@mubarakusman9184]

Bron a much better man than me. I’d never play for this franchise again if that’s the reaction I get for wanting to better my career.

[@nikitastojanovski5841]

Should've had the intro they had back then for LeBron pregame

[@RITAS1964]

During a D. Wade interview and spoke on what really bothered them about this was the racists remarks being screamed at them, that he had never seen such racism up close and personal. 😢They actually believed that they owned that Black man 🤔. Now when I look at his group of close friends, I fully understand now why he really doesn't mess with them like that. Smart move Bron ❤

[@Forever1mthatg1rl]

All athletes are owned by white men. They’re just entertainment tools. The only way black men become rich and successful is if they become a singer, athlete or something in the arts. They can never become CEOs or businessmen and own franchises. That’s reality.

[@claudiorobles63]

Really that whole season 10-11 all eyes were on the big three Miami heat. A lot of hating and wishing for them to fail that year. The Lakers were overshadowed by them despite being the defending champs. Such a hyped up season and a lot of energy in the air i remember watching as a 9th grader

[@jeromevillanueva2207]

Hindsight is always 20/20 but Bron leaving benefited the Cavs since the team has collected quality prospects to either develop or trade for LeBron's support pieces when he came back.

[@theicchamp06]

John Tavares knew & felt this in his return to New York as a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

[@larnz_c363]

That's how people treat you when you give your all and lose co'z their dumb organization doesn't do any effort to give him support he needs that time.

[@nikospao5189]

The fact you have a player who gets the most hate of all time inside a stadium where they absolutely hate you and everytime you get the ball they boo and sound louder than the announcers and he goes out there and drops 40 not giving a fuck, shooting midranges, shooting 3s and staring at the bench while he is walking away, a guy who is not a killer would never perform under these circumstances. Keep listening to narratives created by people who try to keep an argument going, the proof is right in front of you.
