CLEVELAND, Ohio -- King James has reclaimed his throne in Cleveland.
LeBron James stunned the NBA on Friday when he announced his long-awaited free agency decision, choosing to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers and leaving the Miami Heat.

But BIG news, to be honest. And a smart move given the talent around him in Cleveland.
Good for him and good for Cleveland. The leaders there are making the best of an otherwise bad location / reputation.
If I had to choose living in Cleveland, Detroit or Chicago....
Great news for us Laker fans now we can hear Miami fans cry..Its an LA thing..still can’t stand LeBron though, huge Obama kiss ass and Trayvon lover..but the entire Heat team supported him
I’m an Ohioan. Glad he’s back.
On the other hand, it’s entertainment industry stuff....none of which really matters one whit.
1 basket, 20 baskets, do not change the nation’s poverty of spirit.
Good for Cleveland?
This Decision Part II says more about the p*****s in Cleveland for taking him back than it does about James.
At least this clears the free agent logjam.
Outstanding now my beloved Spurs can win against Cleveland and hand LeBron his second consecutive loss and keep his record in the finals below 500
No. Next year is OKC’s.
Good! Now the Rockets can sign Bosh.
WHite House Press Corpse in the Daily Briefing is actually asking Obama’s reaction. Uh, after they asked if he was going to watch the World Cup finals.
Cleveland is going nowhere. The Spurs should make it one more year with the game they play. LeBum can continue to play thugball and nobody has to watch. It was great to watch him get blown out.
Pray America wakes up
I don't see Cleveland making it to the finals. BronBron can't do it all by himself.
Your spurs are really good but so is the entire western conference.
Look out for the Rockets who are only going to get better.
Why didn’t he do an overhyped nationally televised TV appearance to announce “The Decision”??? Where’s his sense of drama and excitement???
It was all part of the plan. Go to Miami, win a couple rings while Cleveland goes to the NBA cellar and gets the #1 pick for Andrew Wiggins. Opt out and come back home.
Many people do not look forward to the return of the circus.
That being said. It is good for the team, the city and the local economy in Cleveland.
I am certainly cold to Mr. James and have had words with him personally telling him he was an ass. I let him know that his leaving was fine, but to have an hour long national TV special dedicated to humiliating his employer and home town was juvenile and Shitty!
His statement showed the smallest amount of contrition as to what he thought would make him happy and what he has found truly makes him happy. .
As a Clevelander I am certain that he is either nursing a career ending injury or will twist his leg getting out of his plane or be hit by a bus in a freak accident. That of course is the way things go in C-Town.
CLE Forever!
In returning to Cleveland he is essentially saying I have my 2 rings and I don’t expect any more — so the pressure to perform and win is off.
