LeBron Looking To Right A Wrong. Might Double Up

LeBron doesn't quite realize the natural contempt
American's have towards royalty. It's all in the name.

When he first left for the sunny beaches of Miami, the Cleveland Cavaliers and their fans burned his jersey in effigy. Apparently the heat from that flame has melted the icy relationship that grew when Cleveland and its favorite son had taken divergent paths, for the parting had not been sweet. As he left,  King James reminded Cleveland that he's from rival city Akron, so Cleveland shunned his royal highness regardless of his steady ascension to the throne.

The royal one is returning to Cleveland and his supreme stature instantly shifted the Cavs to the top of Vegas odds to win it all next year. Vegas could simply be moving to avoid potential historic payouts. The 10 people who already bet Cleveland to win it all next year are thrilled  with this new development. On the other hand, therapist' who helped LeBron, and Cleveland, heal from their last breakup are a little suspicious...and so am I.

They used to say that if you broke up, you  broke up for a reason, and they might be right. The two years he has signed to play for represent a virtual prenuptial agreement. Dan Gilbert may have removed his hate letter to LeBron from the Cav's webpage, but this manifesto is etched into the Cleveland psyche. Cleveland may be willing to allow him the chance to bling out their city like he did Miami, but they will never fully trust him forever. Bigger cities bow to royalty while small towns never open up to keeping something they've never had. At least not for long.

Rejecting LeBron was never going to persist forever. LeBron had to wait for history to rank his all time greatness and Clevelanders would make the distance and hatred between them and Akron disappear. But LeBron couldn't wait. For all the mountains and obstacles he's overcome in his life, being vilified just doesn't sit well with this King.

If only his name had been Smith. Because he's a James, punsters like myself were destined to annoint this talented player, "King James". American's discovered greatness while shunning appointed royalty. We do not readily accept anything , especially royalty, without rigorous debate.

Now the debate becomes, "can LeBron win in Cleveland and will it matter if he does? Clearly LeBron thinks so or he would not be so forgiving of the ineffective curse Cleveland cast upon his crown. LeBron thinks that he was much more beloved before the bad Decision, but is this new Decision truly for the right reasons?

If LeBron and Cleveland are rightful lovers who never should have departed from one another, then love shall write this story. If they are both wounded and running towards an easy way out, this make up might end horribly.

Sometimes you simply can't go home.
