Lebron James, returned to Cleveland last night wearing a Cavalier jersey for the first time since departing the team for the Miami Heat several years ago. It was a very public breakup, and left Cleveland fans extremely upset, but all of that changed when LeBron surprisingly decided to return to his hometown. King James return wasn't all good news as the Knicks spoiled his Cleveland return with 95-90 victory over the Cavaliers. King James performed more like Jester James Thursday night with 17 points on 5-of-15 shooting and committing 8 turnovers.

We had LeBron leaving Cleveland in a rather spectacular fashion, and, in fairness, the return was just as incredible for Cavs fans,” says “ESPN The Magazine” Deputy Editor Otto Strong. “The most recent image gave us an opportunity to close the loop on LeBron's time away.

Otto suggested starting with the cover art from AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1, an image that would echo Peter Parker’s big return,” recalls Rosemann. “Then [artist] Miguel [Sepulveda] tried some different positions to echo the one-handed dunk pose that LeBron is known around the world for breaking out as he sails to the rim.

LMFAO @ that cry-baby pic....

Marvel would be the ones who celebrate this selfish, egotistical, disloyal, sore losing whiner.

This says as much about Marvel, as it does about Lebron.

a triumphant return in which he shot 5-15 from the field including 1-5 from 3, threw the ball away 8 times and lost to the 2nd worst team in the atlantic division despite being at home, playing with the best power forward on the planet kevin love and one of the best young point guards in the game in kyrie irving

Lots of people like to make fun of WWE and call it "stupid", but in reality the 4 sports leagues WANT TO BE like WWE.... especially NBA. Lebron turned heel in 2010. He turned face in 2014. There are a lot of "big 3"s which are basically stables/factions. NBA just loves to include storylines that aren't actually there like "Kobe called Dwight soft,prepare for their face off next time" and nonsense like that. The crowd sometimes wants to get involved, that's part of the show in WWE!!! Kobe thinks he's tough for having a staredown with Dwight. Hey Kobes, try taking an F5 from Brock Lesnar!!! NBA is the stupid one, especially with the refs fixing games and shoving the Lakers down our throats with no parity. WWE>>>>>>>>>>>>NBA. Of course these are just my opinions. Anyways, I'm happy to see the comic book industry hit the mainstream. It shows that we are greatly accepted by the public. I've seen a lot of comic book documentaries growing up and I can assure you that wasn't always the case. Its great to know we overcame the odds and became a powerhouse!!!

@batz11

hey bro! that gif is based on the "lucha libre" or Mexican wrestling. I am not sure now but some years ago they used to have the "tall" or "regular" wrestlers who had a "sidekick" usually the sidekick was a really short person like the one of your gif. They were called the "minis" or little persons.

To me it was not a surprise that he went back to Cleveland. He said it before he left that the organization was not doing enough to help him win a championship. The guy wanted the trophy no matter how he got it.
Personally I think he sucks because of it. No other great player left there team while still young just for a a trophy. All the greats stuck with their teams until their latter years to be traded. There was no way he was going to end his career in Miami, that really was never his team. Its D Wade's team.
