I’m torn.
Not Rip Torn, the actor, but torn torn. Unsure torn. Conflicted torn.
Now that some of the dust has settled since LeBron James publicly spurned Cleveland for the oft-unfilled American Airlines Arena, I’m still not sure whether the move was a) good for the league b) good for the fans or c) one I’m looking forward to watching.
While Miami Heat fans are still sipping mojitos in celebration, the general consensus is that LeBron James is the villain, that he took the easy road out and that even if he wins several titles over the next few years, they won’t be as hard-earned as Larry’s, Magic’s or Michael’s.
Either way, his bags are packed and NBA fans are now left to decide whether to root for, or against, this team. There will be no middle ground.
