Twitter has been going absolutely insane for the past several hours since the announcement, and no one can blame all of the fans that are expressing the joy that they are right now. If you haven't had a chance to read the letter that LeBron wrote for Sports Illustrated, I highly recommend that you do:
LeBron: I'm coming back to Cleveland
Not only is it one of the most well written pieces I could have ever expected to read coming from an athlete, but it also managed to close just about every conceivable open wound. This includes the ones for Clevelanders from "the Decision" and any that were just opened in Miami from the article itself. It was eloquent, heartfelt, and most of all, honest.
Now, as the dominoes begin to fall for the rest of free agency, we await to see what this roster will look like by the time the season starts. Whether it be Ray Allen, Mike Miller, or even Kevin Love, free agency has only begun, and it's sure to be action packed. And remember, we still have a summer league game this evening getting to see the back to back #1 overalls play with one another at 8PM.
And before I go, I'll leave you all with the Twitter reactions to the amazing news:
