LeBron James: 'Not To Rub It In, But Do You Sort Of See Why I Left The Cavaliers Now?'
MIAMI—Following the Cleveland Cavaliers' Wednesday night loss to the fourth-place Detroit Pistons, LeBron James attempted to point out as gently as possible why leaving the 8-45 basketball team was probably the best decision he could have made. "So, you guys kind of get why I did that now?" James asked reporters, holding up a newspaper showing the Eastern Conference standings and coughing. "I mean, you know, they've lost 26 games in a row. That's a lot of games. I'm good, but I fully admit I can't lead a team like that to the title. Sure, I could have gone about leaving in a much better fashion, but come on, right?" James added that he meant no offense by his comments and that he was "just saying."

1. LOL
Here's the part thats both sad and funny--almost every player on the Cavs is there because LeBron approved of that player, as he was defacto GM for the last year or two there. I'm thinking he should never try to be a GM after his career as player ends....
