As a young kid I just loved Jordan. Didn't have cable tv so only games I saw were NBA on NBC. So I saw Jordan over and over. I had cavs shirts but I didn't really know much about them because I didn't see them on tv. Then they got Shawn kemp. So I'm gonna say he was my favorite. I knew who he was because of him playing in the finals against the bulls. So I realize he isn't a cav great, but it's where my liking if the cavs really took off.....

LeBron for me.
Only because I wasn't old enough to remember seeing Mark Price, and the others play. I lived through the Ricky Davis years, and LeBron came into the league when I was 19, so basically it almost has to be him.

Mark Price
I was always Mark Price while playing backyard basketball as a kid.
Also, I named my kid after Terrell Brandon....he is a close second.

Saw Mark Price at my first Cavs game in 1994, instantly became my favorite. Just got his retro blue jersey this year. Z is a close second for me though, and of course I love LeBron...but will not root for him if he leaves the Cavs.

Seriously it's obviously LeBron because he has lead us to the most success in the history of the franchise. If he leaves I will hate his guts. When I was a kid it was Mark Price or Larry Nance.

Lot of favorites...but the one that did the most at the time was Hall of Famer Nate Thurmond. Damn near carried us to a title after Chones broke his leg in 1976.

I was born in '86, so I wasn't exactly in tune with sports like I am now, but watching classic games and just seeing what the guy did, Mark Price is definitely up there..
Obviously, LeBron is right at the top.. Just because of what he's done for this franchise and the city itself.. I also love Z and Brotha Red, though Red hasn't been a Cavs as long as some of the aforementioned..
Andre Miller was a nice one too.. Also Terrell Brandon and Shawn Kemp.. As well as Tar Heel favorite Brad Daugherty...

Mark Price. When he played with Kerr and Ehlo they could all light it up from downtown.

I didn't start watching the NBA until Lebron started playing so I'm going to say him.

I actually agree with Sleeper on this. I used to think World B. Free was the coolest cat in the world.

I would have to say LeBron. NBA was not covered back when Price, Ehlo, Nance, and Daugherty were playing, the way it is now. I always rooted for the Cavs in the playoffs back then, but it was hard to follow them for a season, because of the lack of coverage.
