LeBron says 'it would be great' to play for Cavaliers again

CLEVELAND -- LeBron James says he could picture returning to the place where his NBA journey began.
Back in Cleveland.
Imagine that.
After practicing in a gym where he refined his game for seven seasons, James said Thursday he would not rule out a return to the Cavaliers, the team he carried to the brink of a championship before he spurned an entire region by leaving as a free agent for Miami in 2010.
Asked if he could play for the Cavs again, James initially paused before giving his answer.
“I don’t know. I think it would be great,” he said. “It would be fun to play in front of these fans again. I had a lot fun times in my seven years here. You can’t predict the future and hopefully I continue to stay healthy. I’m here as a Miami Heat player, and I’m happy where I am now, but I don’t rule that out in no sense.

“And if I decide to come back, hopefully the fans will accept me.”
James put Cleveland back on the NBA map by taking the Cavs to one finals and winning two MVP awards during his stay. He left the franchise during a summer in which he held an entire city at bay as it awaited his decision. After he announced he was joining the Heat during a nationally televised special, the Akron native was vilified by the same fans who cheered every one of his dribbles and dunks.
Time has healed some of the wounds — not all.
James has made no attempt to patch things up with Cavs owner Dan Gilbert, who harshly criticized James in a scathing letter to Cleveland’s fans. Gilbert promised to win a title before James, questioned his character and told The Associated Press he felt James quit on the Cavs during the playoffs.
James said he has no bitterness toward Gilbert. They have not spoken since James met with the Cavaliers on July 3, 2010, when they were one of several teams courting him to sign with them.
“I don’t have any hard feelings. He said what he said and I’ve moved on,” said James, who is under contract with the Heat for two more seasons. “But there’s been no attempt to patch things up.”
James, however, said he can envision being friends again with Gilbert.
“I don’t hold grudges,” he said. “I hold them a little bit, but I don’t hold them that long. He said what he said out of anger and he would probably want to take that back. But I made a mistake, too, and there are some things I would want to take back as well.
“You make mistakes and move on.”
On Friday night, James will play his third game in Cleveland since leaving. The reception won’t be nearly as hostile as it was on Dec. 2 last season toward James, who spent the past two days at his colossal home he has kept in nearby Bath, Ohio.
James expects to be booed, but it won’t be as nasty as before.
“It doesn’t sting anymore,” James said. “The booing isn’t as bad as it was last year so it’s not even a big deal.”
James’ comments about a hypothetical return to Cleveland didn’t surprise teammate Dwyane Wade.
Could Wade imagine James with the Cavs again?
“Anything is possible,” he said. “Hopefully, I’m retired.”

Seriously? What is wrong with you?! 1 year after people were burning effigies of you after you crushed a city's heart, you want to be accepted back by them? You poor, miserable bastard. Are you that lacking for love? Grow a pair, you ****in cry baby. I hope you never win a chip in your career, and I pray that at least once, our own Knicks send your team home for early vacation.

Yeah, he is returning and trying to make some peace.

I give him some props, he did admit to making mistakes.

And his make up is he likes to please everyone and be loved.

Lebron is a egocentric to a high degree, but not evil.

He's not evil. He's too stupid to be evil. He's a pathetic pansy.

If he choose Knicks we would love him.

I been bitter but this is a class move.

First one since he left.

And he is playing out of his mind.

Agreed. except for the dislike part. Big fan of his game, not necessarily the person. We've never seen any player like him.

I am not sure this is a class move. A class move would be to recognize or acknowledge that he caused a lot of pain to the fans in Cleveland by showboating his picking decision. This guy is just crying for attention. I am with Panos he is a media whore.

I don't get it loweycue. How is he a media whore if someone asked him the question? It's not like he brought it up on his own.

This was a lose lose situation. If he said no comment or I would never play here you would eat him up too. The only way for him to win in this situation is to freeze time before the question was asked, run out of the building and then restart time once he was a safe distance away

I just hope that people will like me

I guess I was just looking for him to acknowledge that his childish behavior had caused the Cleveland fans unwarranted grief but I didn't see that in the article. Maybe I missed something. The way I see it he went out of his way to burn his bridges - to now make a casual comment that the fans should suddenly accept him seems like yet another plea for moe attentiona nad coddling and whatever his vulnerable ego desires.

I was in Cleveland for Melo's second game last year and some Cav fans had hillarious anti-Lebron shirts on and they were playing the Knicks. My guess is he needs bodyguards whenever he is in that city.

My first boss, my first job, a Mr. Cron we will call him to disguise his real identity, he told me, "MarburyAnd1Crossover, you can't please everyone".

And this guy LeBron doesn't understand that.

He's a little kid, he's a little baby, not a man but a baby, which is why he will chew his fingernails and never win a World Championship of the World.

I will never understand the Lebron hate. People who burned his jersey need to get a life. They should be more mad at the owner than anyone else. For 7 or 8 years the best player to play beside him was Mo Williams & Drew Gooden. He took them to the finals.

He couldn't do anymore than he did.

He had a right to leave, he did handle it poorly and looked like a major douchebag. But we all need to move on, Linsanity is a much better story than anything Lebron does or says right now.

I don't hate him, but I don't like him. I do respect his game and I think he is a fantastic athlete-and as long as he isn't up against the Knicks I wish him well.

I won't be witness to his first ring. Superfriends reeks of idol worship and self adulation.

They are better this year but that whole "Decision" thing, and the pep rally was way over the top.

Kendrick Perkins was correct.

This loser is so desperate to make people like him, it's quite pathetic.

How about shutting your mouth and making a fourth quarter jumpshot, queen?

Surely you can't be serious. I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.
