First off, as a Heat fan I fear this is yet another step toward Lebron inevitably leaving Miami. Whether its back to Cleveland is debatable, but does seem the most likely scenario. While a potentially cathartic moment may occur for both Lebron and Cleveland, I imagine Lebron will not be visible to the fans. Will he be watching on from a box suite like we are supposed to ignore the fact he's indirectly supporting his old team again. I think he's smart for returning Beacause it gives him a chance to play the good guy foronce, and, for Cleveland fans a chance to see him giving them support and possibly moving forward. It will be interesting to see if he's shown on the screen or even dare I say being out on the court how Cavs fans will react. Are they going to think this one out and show him they could welcome him back, or, as i suspect, will Cavs fans still hold a grudge against a 25 year-old kid who wanted to live somewhere nice and win championships. I expect the Cavs players will do their part to recruit him by stepping up their play against the Knicks tonight. Either way, seems a path towards the next "Decision" will potentially be paved tonight. Will cooler heads prevail. I am interested to hear the Clevelanders perspective on the forum.

Well, that was a very nice commentary. But, what are you talking about. The Heat are not playing Cleveland. Do not follow this at all brother???

On a more important note, from a betting perspective, anyone think this will impact the Cavs?
The line has moved from Cle -2.5, to Nyk -1, although the money is coming in on the Knicks. I just can't bring myself to make a big play on this crapfest Knicks team, but with all the potential distractions, a small play on New York might be in order.Comment -
Yeah this game is very intriguing to me from a betting perspective
My brain is screaming Cavs because of lbj sitting in a suite
That has got to pump up the young kids on this team , especially kyre
Seriously.. it will also be a sellout crowd backing them...
But the problem is this team is just a mishmash of characters who just don't gel well
Losers of 3 straight and facing a more talented and experienced team who is basically on their death bed
Really tough call.....Comment -
I got you covered since you helped me out. Cleveland money line has the best value right now. This is the New York Knicks 5th game in 7 nights, and, I think they step it up for Lebron as my initial comment explain. New York teams are always overvalued, now the Knicks win two games against two teams that play Zero defense in Minnesota and Utah now everyone is backing them? I have no idea why anyone would back the Knicks, but, I've been surprised before. Tonight is different though, and the Knicks are riding a transient wave which likely ends tonight.Comment -
You guys are overlooking the biggest obstacle in the way of Lebron making a return to the Cavs.
You think there's any way he'll ever play for a team owned by Dan Gilbert?
Think he's forgotten about that open letter?
No fckin way.Comment
