LeBron James and the Miami Heat travel to Cleveland tonight to take on Bron's former team. We've got the deets on the crazy things fans are planning for LeBron's return when you read on...
Since LeBron's decision to join the Heat, many Cleveland fans have developed a hatred for their former star player. Fans burned his jersey and the Cav's owner was fined for a letter he wrote dissing LeBron. Tonight marks LeBron's first return to Cleveland since joining the Heat. There is increased security and some tickets are even selling for $5k!
When asked about playing against Cleveland for the first time in his career LeBron said, "I think it is going to be tough. I think it is going to tough. But I am there to win a basketball game. But I understand how passionate fans are about sports. So I'm ready for whatever responses I am going to get, but it is going to be very emotional."
Cav fans went as far as to create a chant sheet for LeBron's return. Some instructions include not to boo LeBron during pre-game introductions but to boo as loud as possible during his introduction. You can find the entire chant list here. Fans even have shirts that read, "LeBron went south when his mom rode West" in reference to the rumors that former teammate Delonte West slept with LeBron's mother. Smdh. Ish is gonna get real REAL tonight...
It will be interesting to see how badly LeBron gets harassed at tonight's game. The Heat take on the Cavs at 8/7c on TNT.
