    Apparently LeBron revealed his "secret motivation" to Dave McMenamin.

    When he left the Heat "somebody" in the organization (you can guess who but the passive aggressive coward wouldn't say), told him he was making the biggest mistake of his career. This was such an affront that it's been motivating him since

    So you know what, **** him, **** Cleveland, **** Sprite, McDonald's, Kia, Space Jam 2, that Amy Schumer movie he was in and any other crap he's involved with

    Nobody cares about the angry, bitter Heat Fans. Lebron gave you guys 2 titles, you won't win another one for a very long time and now Cleveland is probably the odds on favorite to repeat.

    Congrats to LeBron. Still the best player on the planet by a good margin.

    Salty about that clown owner and turncoat fans getting a title. I sat next to a woman who admitted she burned her #23 jersey in 2010. Badge of honor I guess.

    Pretty much sums up my thoughts. I wish LeBron hadn't left but whatever, that was his choice. F* Dan Gilbert and co. though.

    Why have you never pursued coaching or something of the sort? I mean Im sure you have other things to do in life don't get me wrong...but more than anyone on the planet would land you a sweet gig somewhere had you went after it haha.

    Which ever team won would have been historic. That was an entertaining game. Congrats to Cavs fans...you guys needed this one. The Lebron block from no where will stick out for me for a long time. The win adds to Lebron's legacy as one of the greats. Jordan is untouchable.

    How many Dolphins fans burned Ricky Williams jerseys when he retired, then welcomed him back with open arms a couple years later.

    I'd welcome Lebron back with open arms tomorrow. Good for him on the win (and he had to carry that team to it.)

    Although I have to say to the crusty types telling the Heat fans they are irrelevant....that's foolish talk. You are likely to have a lot of egg on your face soon (again)

    He's an AMAZING player. I would never let him on my team again though....winning isn't as important to me as respectable character which I believe Lebron lacks in leaps and bounds. No he's not a thug...but I think he's a crybaby who only wants his way.

    So bitter. So jealous. It's really comical how strong it is with you that you have to continue to make comments like this. Many Heat fans are happy for LeBron, and Miami gave LeBron those titles just as much as he gave them to Miami.

    As for Miami not winning another one for a long time, I'll take Pat Riley over any other GM in the league. He'll certainly put them in better position than Washington will be in. But I get it, if you have a dumpster fire of a franchise like the Wizards, you're going to be jealous of one of the best organizations in sports. And when I know you'll certainly try and debate that statement, understand you'll just be making yourself look worse as that is a pretty universal notion around the NBA.

    He definitely seems to have an agenda painting us all as salty, and it seems like he is a lot saltier than we are.

    Check Jordan's career at 31 years old. Then Look at Bron's at 31 years old. it is not "crazy talk".

    The idea that Jordan was in a 'no foul' era is ridiculous. He was the originator of the superstar call.

    A) LeBron didn't "give us" anything.
    B) We won't win another one for a long time? What's a long time? 1 year?
    C) Cleveland is not the odds on favorite, and LeBron might not even be there..next year.

    Lebron has .42 FTA/FGA. In Jordan's first 13 seasons, he had .38 FTA/FGA.

    However, in total, Jordan had 551 more FTs than Lebron after 13 seasons.

    Where did this riots and fire and stuff start? I was downtown and saw nothing of the sort. Literally watched at the Q and walked around downtown for 2 hours post-game. People on top of a firetruck was about as rowdy as I saw? Lots of "f*ck Steph Curry" chants - but no property damage.

    Cleveland fans do enough to embarrass themselves, y'all don't have to make up more stuff.

    That's how most Heat fans feel I believe, at least I do. LeBron gave us 4 amazing years... probably the best sports run I'll ever see in my life of South Florida sports. But the **** that spewed from Gilbert after he left and whining about the Heat just tainted my view of the franchise. It's not even fans burning his jersey or whatever that bothered me, as stupid as that is. It's really that POS owner and for that reason I am salty.

    Still, that was one of the best finals series I've ever seen. Truly incredible victory by Cleveland and amazing performances by LeBron and Kyrie. I definitely appreciated it as an NBA fan.

    We have a damn good team as it is, and have some cap space. You better believe they will be a threat to come out of the east. Pat Riley will spend the cap space wisely.

    ok...don;t care about stats such as WP and Win Shares, etc...?

    Okay..at 31 years old: Jordan, 3 titles, 3 MVP's, 3 Finals MVP's. Bron: 3 Titles, 4 MVP's, 3 Finals MVP's, 4 other finals appearances.

    You guys lost to the Raptors. Good team, ok but not that good. You were as good as the Wizards were 2 years ago.....IF Bosh comes back and you guys have a healthy team you're good but you aren't beating the Cavs if Lebron stays. And you have a ton of players that are declining. You need a major player like Durant, you do that and I'll believe it. If you just return with Whiteside, Bosh and a few decent mid level type players you aren't beating Cleveland.

    Jordan: Phil Jackson and one of the best assembled teams in history.

    LeBron: Ty Lue, Kyrie Irving, and a bunch of childhood friends.

    Not to mention that Jordan never beat a team as good as 2015-16 GS.
