Says Lebron James about the Cavs home season opener against the Knicks.

Agree or disagree? Ridiculous statement?

Think it's overblown but seeing that crowd and media there, it was pretty big. Not as big as he would like to think nationally but locally, it's probably massive. Remember, it's Cleveland.

Good god, this guy might be the most boring figure in sports entertainment. The Brooklyn Brawler had more charisma.

Completely ridiculous. I mean, seriously? Dude goes back to the "fans" who burned him in effigy to play for the "Owner" who literally spoke of him in the fashion of a runaway slave and he calls it that? OTOH, he did choke so maybe he was on to something.

Better to get these kids nerves out of the way in game 1 of the regular season rather than game 1 of the ECF

Half his team has never been in a game with a spotlight on it, they played like it too, better now than then.

He played like ass, but this is a team being run up as a potential title favorite, with 3 starters with a combined 0 playoff experience.

That team can't beat Chicago. The difference in D is too great.

This team is going to jell and when it does it will beat Chicago. My homie is a Chi fan. I keep telling him and now I'm telliing you. Finals will be Cleveland vs San Antnio, SA in 7.
