NBA: Kareem: “The Decision” part II is like leaving your wife for the hot chick

[Koolaid_Man]

Kareem with the goods:

To some skeptical residents, LeBron’s return to Cleveland is less that of the prodigal son’s triumphant return home than the straying husband who abandoned his longtime partner to chase a younger, hotter, firmer slice having second thoughts. Having realized he traded a deep love for a sweaty romp, he’s coming home with a bouquet of roses in one hand and a diamond bracelet in the other, begging forgiveness for his foolish mistake of lustful youth.


When LeBron left Cleveland he celebrated it as the Exodus from Egypt and enslavement, and that arrogance left a bitter taste in his fans’ mouths. It was like showing up at a party with his new girlfriend when he knew his ex would be there. Tacky. Even his return to Cleveland might have been seen as more from the heart, as he states in his essay, if it had just been announced as a fait accompli instead of the press and fans waiting in anticipation for the word to come down from the mountain inscribed on tablets.



But in another way, LeBron can’t go home again. At least not to the home he once knew. They may be grateful and joyful, but they are also wiser. Like the betrayed spouse, they will have to wait and see, they will have to be wooed, they will have to be convinced that his sincerity, to quote “Porgy and Bess,” ain’t a sometime thing.

Actually, Miami was the hot chick. Cleveland is the re ed wife begging for the husband that cheated on her.

I disagree...anytime you got a on your team that's gay as and ugly as a T-rex you can't be considered a hot chic

The sooner Miami realizes they were Brons side hoe and not the love of his life the sooner they'll get over it. They still got two really nice mansions out of him tbh.

Kareem should know about cheating on his wife. He did that both to Milwaukee and his wives.

Well done.

Lebron may have put himself out on a bit of a limb in The Essay when he said that he envisioned himself retiring a Cav. He has basically tied himself to that organization for better or worse, unless he seriously plans to come back in The Decision IV.
