I think Lebron is number 1. Lebron has every right to go somewhere else to make money and play basketball. I don't think many people can seriously argue that. There is difference between just leaving and doing what Lebron is doing. This really is mean.

Leaving in the middle of the night(Is that what happend with the Browns or was that just a colts thing?) is bad, but it's not as bad as doing a selection show on national TV so you can milk every second out of it.

Also when the Browns were they bad? I think they were borderline terrible at the time. With the Cavs they just won back to back 60 win games in the regular season. So if Lebron were to come back they would probably be the favorites in the East or still really high. Then to top it off how he basically gave up in game 5 of the playoffs against the Celtics at home it's bascially the worst possible scenario.

So I think it's even worse then the Browns leaving. Even if they are more popular in the city of Cleveland.
