    We'll that is true - FANS never do learn .

    What we are banking on is that HE has learn!!!!!

    1. No place like home
    2. Bringing just 1 championship to Cleveland will do more for his legacy then any championship anywhere else!!!
    3. The backlash for him leaving Cleveland after 1/2 years(esp after his essay) will be bigger then the first.

    Which leads to our biggest hope for him staying. His q rating and popularity took a huge beating in 2010 it has climb some since and I have a feeling because of that" essay" and the feel good part of the story of the Prodigal Son returning this will have a huge jump for him again. The righting of what he did wrong -story.

      yeah, I think that's likely.

      have been to Cleveland dozens of times - excellent sports city that deserves a winner FINALLY.

      Miami, great city but lousy sports town (though with all the models walking down Collins Ave, who wants to be stuck inside watching a game on TV!)

        Well, now were talking!

        A league source said on July 17 that the Cavs are now willing to trade the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 draft.

        Wiggins, a 6-foot-8, 194-pounder, has played well at the Las Vegas Summer League, where he’s become a crowd favorite. The former Kansas star has averaged 13.7 points and 3.0 rebounds in the Cavs’ first three games. However, he’s shooting just 37.8 percent from the field.

        Up until this point, it was assumed the Cavs wanted to hang onto Wiggins, largely because of comments made by Coach David Blatt.

        However, a source said James wants the 6-10, 250-pound Love on the roster.

        And, what James wants, he normally gets.

        The latest offer could include Wiggins, power forward Anthony Bennett and a first-round pick. Center Brendan Haywood might be included in the deal to make it work contractually.
        Ever since LeBron James returned to Cleveland, talks have intensified for All-Star power forward Kevin Love. Rumors have surfaced that the Cavaliers wouldn’t include rookie swingman Andrew Wi…

          Annnnnd, it's done (pending league approval), on Saturday! And Minnesota has done better than anyone had a right to expect for that whiny malcontent Love. The Wolves get Wiggins, Bennett, Thaddeus Young from Philly, and a 4 million dollar trade exception. they also give a #1 to Philly and 2 players who have no future and are essentially expiring contracts. I have no idea why Philly wants to deal Young, but it really makes the deal much better, and Wiggins actually wants to be here, which is a shock.

          Thanks LeBron, for giving this cursed franchise a legitimate shot at a brighter future.

            Good Lord, this deal has turned out better than I could have hoped...Wiggins has turned it on, and is in the process of becoming a great player. While Love is having a sub-standard season to the point that the Cavs may not even try to keep him...almost certainly won't max his contract when it expires. Dude is simply a matador on defense, and the Cavs are suffering for it.

            Wiggins can do everything, drive to the hoop, hit 3's, pass the ball, and I think that he'll become what Love could never be, a plus defender. While the Wolves currently suck, I think the future is going to be pretty nice...

                Two teenagers in NBA history have had at least 30 points, nine boards, four assists, and three blocks in a game: LeBron and Wiggins.
