    Sounds like he made a pretty wise decision yet again no?

    Won't hear a peep about this from the national or even local media though. Apparently you can shit on two cities but as long as you go back where you started, then not a thing matters.

Now everyone says it's 100% because he loves the city and all this whore shit. Now I'm a Houston fan like most know so him leaving gives us Bosh, I'm happy. But what in the hell is with all this love now ?
    I think the whole thing was in motion 4 years ago. Sure an injury or asteroid could have derailed the whole plan but I think it's naive of us to think that both sides didnt consider this could happen when he left. Even Leborn said never say never about going back to Cleveland one day at that time. They were stuck in mediocre mode with Lebron there and were never going to get draft picks. He leaves and they load up on three #1 picks (Anthony Bennet didnt help) and then he comes back and gets to move the pieces around.

    The breakup between Lebron and Cleveland played out like the typical Rom-Com. Boy moves away from girl blinded by the bright lights. Girls is devastated. Boy comes back realizes love of live has been the best friend all along. Saves day.
