And the Price/Daugherty era Cavs were good enough talent wise to have their playoff runs halted by the +Ewing Knicks & +Jordan Bulls. The LeBron era Cavs put too much pressure and stock in the "hometown hope" without making any effort to surround him with any type of talent and expecting him to singlehandedly lift them to multiple championships.
I don't hate LeBron, but I didn't delude myself that he was going to stick around northeast Ohio forever. A lot of people did, however, and resent him to this day.

I don't care about the face/heel thing. I would have loved to hear and see the reaction if he had come out with a LeBron jersey and would have given him props to have the balls to wear it but of course that wouldn't have happened.
