Dear Cleveland, When I came to this country 14 years ago, I was a young man who barely spoke the language and had no idea what to expect of this great country. As I look back on those early days, I realize how lucky I was to have grown up in Cleveland. All of you have taught me the importance of family and friends; of pulling together to get things done; of loving your country. I've never felt as proud as when I've pulled on the Wine and Gold and stepped onto the court. I've tried my best to return that support by playing as hard as I could each and every game. The decision to play for Miami was not an easy one to make for either myself or my family. But as I enter the last few years of my career, I felt I owed it to myself and my family to chase my dream of winning an NBA championship. I hope you understand. I also hope you realize Cleveland will always be home to me. With love and appreciation, Zydrunas "Z" Ilgauskas.
I recently wrote an article about Lebron James and legacies... so just for the hell of it I decided to run it through the site Wordle and this is what popped out. Pretty interesting how a jumble of words can sum up a story so well.
LeBron James, ESPN the Magazine Interview, 2006.

LOL... I saw the post you guys had of LeBron going to New york in your front page and decided to poke fun of LeBron going to Golden State... I know it's not going to happen (we don't have the cap space) I just wanted to join in on the fun!
Gotta love New York. They have completely mortgaged the future for LeBron.

Shaq seems to be having trouble remembering the Cavs' playbook so the guys at Waiting For Next Year came up with a handy cheat sheet for him.
