Maybe he's trying to get the fans worked up into a "us against them" kind of thing to keep the season ticket count up.

But he sounds like it came from the heart. Which would be stupid.

I think he is more upset by the fact that the player that he has payed millions of dollars to. Not to mention the extra pampering and ego stroking over the last seven years. Did not have the decency to tell him that he was leaving the organization. The owner of the Cavs had to wait and watch TV like every other single person in the world. At the very least Lebron could have called the owner of the Cavs and given him his decision prior to announcing it to everyone else. It would have only taken a minute or two. According to media reports the owner tried to call Lebron four times yesterday, along with three text messages with no response.
