What do you honestly expect when James returns?

When he returns to Cleveland to play the Cavaliers, what do you honestly expect fans to do, and what do you expect from LeBron?

 

I have this feeling things will be thrown on the court. Maybe similar to the Lakers fans throwing their foam fingers last year (dumb). Maybe old LeBron jerseys? :o

 

I've heard that Cavs fans were planning on not showing up, but then changed their mind because they need to be there to support their team.

 

I also expect some of the loudest boos I've ever heard every time he touches the ball.

 

Will LeBron even play over 30 minutes? I wonder how he'll react to all of it.

Yeah bigdog, it is going to be on TNT.

 

But this game is going to be very intense. It will be on my girlfriends birthday, so we are definitely getting tickets for the game. But I wouldn't be surprised if objects were thrown at all. Just a week ago with that guy who just wore a LeBron jersey at an Indians game was getting booed and called all kinds of names and then they started a "[expletive] LeBron" chant, and that was just from the 3,000 or so people in the bleacher seats, just imagine when LeBron shows up to a packed stadium. I hope Hickson or someone throws a cheap-shot or elbow right at LeBron, even if Hickson or whoever does it gets kicked out for it. I'm so pumped for this game. Only 120 more days.

Will you partake in anything like throwing stuff?>

I'll make sure to go to this one. I expect everything and anything to happen.

 

Hopefully Hickson can posterize LeBron or we could have a buzzer beater win.

 

Would be ironic if James had his first 50 point game in the Q....but not as a Cav.

^Ha me neither. I'm pretty sure he dropped like 49 a year or two ago against the Knicks at the Q, though.

 

Anyway, I expect things to be thrown, boos EVERY time he touches the ball, vulgar chants, things to be thrown at the bus after the game ala Lakers-Celtics 2008, and LeBron to be too hyped up and have a below-average game. Either that, or he won't even be in the building at all. I'd also say there's an outside chance at least one person runs out onto the court/tunnel and tries something stupid.

 

Going to be great.

I couldn't find any parts of the game, only the interview, but I'm expecting something along the lines of this game.

Could be worse though.

 

Oh it's going to be MUCH worse than T-Mac going back to Orlando. T-Mac wasn't drafted by the Magic, was only there for 4 years, didn't have as much success as LeBron (from both an individual and team standpoint) and was traded away as opposed to having a "Decision" to leave via free agency. Also, the Magic had made the NBA Finals just 5 years prior to T-Mac's arrival, as well as a few very successful seasons. The Cavs did nothing the 10 years prior to LeBron's arrival, and had never reached the Finals before the LeBron years.

 

I expect a reaction closer to VC's return to Toronto, and honestly VC deserved more of a lashing by his fans than LeBron does. However, I expect an even stronger reaction when LeBron returns to Cleveland just because of how many more MVP's, championships and other things the city could have experienced had he stayed. VC was never close to the player LeBron is, and that makes his departure so much more bitter.

It's going to be insane. LeBron will hear it all game long and rightfully so.

 

I could honestly see LeBron laughing at the fans and dancing around like a cocky [expletive]. He lives for this [expletive].

 

I'll be pulling for the Cavs in this one.

If he does that, I guarantee things will be thrown and people will try to run at him. No doubt in my mind.
