Gilbert wasn't very classy at all. LeBron gave Cleveland 7 good years. What more do you want? He wanted a title and he knew he needed help.

What a pompous , mealy mouthed little rich boy, STFU Dan Gilbert, you classless POS!

LeBron obviously stopped his intellectual development at the age of fourteen. Without a doubt he was incapable of handling this decision.

Many times we heard from owners that this is a business, now a player does business and is all wrong? I don't think so..

The Cavs did nothing in the off season to improve. I think the owner is bitter , had Lebron stayed would the owner statment been the same?

In the words to Beyonce's song (to Cleveland), "If you liked him
then you should've put a ring on him."

Dan Gilbert displays a lack of unprofessionalism & class by ranting like the incessant spoiled rotten brat he truly is, you COWARD!

Gilbert showed no class. LeBron James showed no class. But I agree with Gilbert that LeBron did not play all out in the playoff games.

hes a not a champion... and probably will end his career like karl malone, and then end up a bitter commentator like charles barkley.

LeBron deserves everything which are intended for him. But calling him a traitor and disloyal is unjustifiable.

It's funny.All 3 of them will STILL lose to The Lakers.

Dan Gilbert shouldn't have done that.

If Gilbert wanted to keep Lebron he should have went after Wade or Bosch.He did nothing to better the team player wise.
It's business...

Lebron made the best decision for himself. It's not about the money it's about winning NBA championships and he had zero shot with the Cavs

Ok, so if Gilbert put half of his passion and rant into surrounding James with players, Lebron would still be a Cav. Gilbert screwed himsel

You play a game to win and hopefully along the way you and your team wins a championship.

He quit, did anyone watch Celts playoffs----Gilbert dumb, but LeBron quit, plain and simple........

The loss to Celtics series speaks for itself! If he had won he would not have an excuse for bolting.

How could he do this to Cleveland on NATIONAL TV! Gilbert did EVERYTHING James wanted - THAT was his mistake. LEBRON QUIT!

Cavs owner, as a business man, should learn to live with a legitimate and legal business decision that did not favor him.

Gilbert gave Lebron everything he could and he is major PO'd at being treated like a stranger. Dan, Zip-It, Zip It Good. LBJ = mud in Ohio

I think that Dan Gilbert is speaking the truth--LeBron did quit. Can you picture any other "superstar" who behaved as he did in the playoff

LB is no Jordon or Kobe

Anyone who calls himself the "king" has ego issues

Celtics don't have anyone to stop - or even slow down -Lebron

Anyone but the Celtics or Lakers.

Celtics. It all depends on Rondo. If eh goes to the basket and gets Shaq in foul trouble it is theirs to win.

The Cavs if LBJ healthy. They could put a serious lineup with Powe and Telefair available if Lebron misses a game or 2. Still could compete

Sorry BeanTown , Your Greenies are TOAST in 5!!!

If Boston play the D like of old they'll be ok.

cavs will win, but the way there palying theyll never beat magic.

Cavaliers lose: No heart, no pride, no win.

Shaq is just an all around fun guy! He's the big guy you'd love to have as a party buddy. I enjoy watching the arc of his life!

He's a fun guy, and I want to see the X Laker loose again all the pros, haha. Teach him for leaving LA.

Shaq may be past his prime as a NBA player but he is still one of the funniest guys in sports. I'm sure the show will be a hit.

Can't wait till it starts. Shaq is pretty entertaining BIG BOY. Yes, I will most definately watch. Shaq FAN.

Reality TV is for losers with nothing better to do!

Total waste of cash, draft pick and Sasha. We need a bangin' center BUT Shaq?Come on Danny, get a YOUNGER C/F that can shoot for that dough

I love Shaq but he's aging, injury prone, and in the end he'll hurt the cavs...

Shaq's only 60% of what he was. Cavs already have Big Z. Another old, slow big won't help.Cavs need someone like Tyson Chandler.

He's too old to play much.

We will see what happens

I think it potentially improves them a great deal and puts them in much better position, but I don't think they're favorites yet!

Rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic will not buy Cleveland an NBA title. They need a Dwight Howard-like tall man instead of Shaq.

Shaq's best years are behind him

of course it's going to help the cavs-- they get favorable terms all around.

It'd be nice to see if portalnd woulda traded oden cheaper

Defenses are cramming the lane already. Lebron needs a consistent PERIMETER threat next to him, not a 2nd paint clogger. Cavs failed.

Star Power!

It will never work. O'Neal is in love with himslef and no one else. Conflicting egos will destroy the Cavs.

He's way past his prime. He couldn't do anything in Phoenix and he sure won't be able to do anything in Cleveland.

Big Baby James is all about Lebron, and Baby Huey Shaq is about 350 pounds. No way!

Shaq was never "talented", he is just big. Period. And now he's just old, hurt, and big.

Absolutely not! Shag has never been the main man. Without a Kobe or Dwayne level player he wins nothing. He stole 3 MVP's from Kobe.

I don't understand the logic of this move. Maybe Cleveland is waiting to, hopefully, resign LeBron and get more players next year.

Shaq is too old and way too lazy. he can't accept the role of a backup player.

Magic series proved they need more than that. With Cavs luck, Shaq would break his leg in first practice. I think they also need a coach!

the Cav's are a one man team and always will be with LeBron....ball hawg

The Cavs need a 2nd consistent SCORING threat, not a bigger slow big man. Until teams can't just collapse on Lebron, they go no further.

In the longer run (2-4 yrs) a big man could equalize alot of vertical space underneath the Cav's net.
