This is a touch more entertaining than other FA periods.

All because their owner is a dick and they get lucky with pingpong balls? They actually have a loyal/tortured fanbase and I think EVERY passionate fanbase would have acted like a bunch of hurt puppies with how he went about his first decision.

Cleveland fans have got shit on for so long. How those Indians team we grew up with didn't win a WFC is still amazing to me.

The Cleveland fans' reactions were funny but I've often thought how I'd react in a similar situation

The answer is I REALLY don't know because I can't think of a Philly equivalent to LeBron, someone whose departure would actively kill just about the entire sports scene in the city. The only thing I could think of is if like Lurie moved the Eagles... but the Cleveland fans have an equivalent to that, too

Mostly; I hate their owner and don't want to see him win championships or make boatloads of cash off of the best player in the world, who he publicly shat on (and left that stupid fucking letter up on their website until Monday). I'm also sick of their luck and them being rewarded for being the most incompetent team in the league.

Also, I've been to Cleveland and it was horrible, so I'll always hold that against anything Cleveland to an extent.

Gilbert owns QuickenLoans. He needs money from the Cavaliers as much as I need syphillis.

I thought what he said was stupid for this very reason, but I understand where the sentiment came from.

If LeBron comes back the Decision would be like the best thing to ever happen to the Cavs, in a weird way

Hmmm...true. They have a respectable core/competent GM and would still maybe getting LeBron's very best years. If they would pull off the Love thing I don't see how they don't just destroy the East.
