That letter leads me to believe that more has gone on between the two behind closed doors than we will ever no. That was an angry letter lol.

As the lifelong Browns fan, you have the prerequisites necessary to be a Cavs fan.

I'd be pissed too if I essentially just lost $100+ million.

But I think I agree with you.

You forget that LeBron is just a player, he doesn't run the team.

Riiiiiight...LeBron didn't have a hand in any of those decisions. LeBron didn't quit in the playoffs this year. Sure, he's blameless in all of this.

Dan Gilbert knows where the bodies are buried. LeBron, Maverick, Turtle, Drama and LeBrontourage pissed off the wrong billionaire.

AP capitalizing on this and calling Dan Gilbert...

http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/38160543/
Gilbert, who posted a letter to Cavs fans on the team's website shortly after James announced he plans to sign with Miami, tells The Associated Press late Thursday night that he feels "personally betrayed" by James and that it's "accountability time."

In a phone interview with the AP, Gilbert says "people have covered up for (James) for way too long. Tonight we saw who he really is." Gilbert says James quit on the Cavs during their second-round series against the Boston Celtics, who rallied from a 2-1 deficit to eliminate Cleveland.

Dan Gilbert was completely unprofessional in his statement.Goodluck finding any superstar to ever grace a Cavs jersey.You had one of the best players in the league yet you surround him with journey men and guys past their prime.The Cavs won't win 30 games next year and its you Gilbert not James who is to blame.

Down nine with less than two minutes left in your season and you are walking the ball up the court...the NBA announcers for that game brought it up, it was brought up on here...he fucking quit before the season was over, so to hell with LeBitch.

Well played Danny, well played.

WKNR is starting a Civil War over this.

Goldhammer is saying it was somewhat out of line
Everyone else is saying "you haven't been here long enough".
Goldhammer says "yes, but I also am not acting on pure emotion this evening like you guys"

Are you kidding?! You obviously don't know much about Dan Gilbert and his financial position. His ownership of the Cavs is like your ownership of a Fantasy team.
