I've been hearing the rumors but didn't think it would actually happen. I'm glad though and it's a great story.

Wow. Miami was a championship caliber team. Who knows how long it will take for the Cavs to become one. They have a lot of young players with absolutely no playoff experience.

I have no idea why this decision was made and how it will win him a championship but it is what it is. Where is that idiot that was a die hard Miami fan? I need to check his allegience.

“I’m not promising a championship. I know how hard that is to deliver. We’re not ready right now. No way. Of course, I want to win next year, but I’m realistic. It will be a long process, much longer than it was in 2010.”

Love, James, Irving and Wiggins? That'd be good

I'm sure the Cavs would have to give up Wiggins to get K. Love though.

As a Pacers fan, this makes me so happy.

I don't even have the words.

i am the biggest lebron hater but its nice to see that he has matured. he came a long way from the "not 3,not 4,not 5,...." speech. they have a core of some great young players and lebron really has chance to be a leader with a team with a real fanbase.

Happy for forever being a couple pieces away from making the NBA Finals and having an overrated superstar?

....or having a center that you can't even trade away because his contract is too big?

...or having a triple-double headache who doesn't even want to come back because you didn't offer him enough?

The list goes on for the Pacers....maybe I just don't like your team because they are cocky for no reason. I liked PG before everyone started anointing him a superstar. And I liked Hibbert before he flat out started sucking wind.

And I never liked Stephenson but I respected his hustle.

This move is a good one for James, who will now leave another franchise to be left for dead. I am happy for Cavs fans and am glad James will show a firm commitment to helping them win their first title.

Overall this doesn't really change the competitive landscape in the East, which is great for every team in the East because everyone still kind of has a shot. It's ridiculous how loaded the West is right now!!! With OKC, San Antonio, Golden State, Clippers, Houston (now that they're getting Bosh), NOBODY has a cakewalk.

Also I am only partially kidding about disliking the Pacers. I love that they play as a team and I love Vogel and his energy. I think they got away from some of their core tenants and it led to inconsistency. I look forward to seeing them get back to being the team they were in previous years.
