Listen to me LeBron, I beat up aliens for God's sake

Jim Brown was on hand for the Cavs game against the Raptors yesterday and he took the opportunity to speak on LeBron’s future. “Looking at the fact that it is a business, I put that first, but having said that, I would love to see him be here,” Brown said. He continued to express his hope that LeBron would stay as he went on to say, “I think it’s a terrific marriage. He does so much for this city and I think he has an owner that tries to do everything he can. When you have a owner who is trying to do the best he can do and a player, it’s a terrific set of circumstances”

It’s great to hear Jim Brown, a man who spent his entire NFL career in Cleveland, hoping that LeBron will stay with the Cavs. I believe LeBron’s sense of history will at least make him appreciate Jim Brown’s opinion, if not take it to heart.

The next person to share their opinion about LeBron was none other than Bill Simmons, The Sports Guy himself. After LeBron’s trip to LA, Bill who is a huge Clippers fan, shared his thoughts on LeBron. “There is no better teammate. And after watching this point get hammered home for three hours, it suddenly seemed far-fetched that LeBron James would willingly walk away from his guys — and his fans, and his city, and his legacy in Cleveland — just to play for someone else.”

Keep in mind that Simmons has been building a strong case for LeBron to leave Cleveland for the Clippers for quite some time now. After watching LeBron in person, he sees what all of Cleveland has seen for years…he belongs with us!

If you have some time check out Bill’s column about LeBron’s trip to LA, it’s a great read.
