It wasn’t quite the news story that we got when LeBron came home, but Mo Williams made a splash on Twitter yesterday when he said those three words Clevelanders love to hear: “I’m coming home!!!!”
It’s not my thing, but judging from my social media timelines everyone loves the fact that Kevin Love is part of the ESPN Body issue. I’m about all things CLE and for at least today I’m showing the love… lots of it.
Kevin Love has unfinished business in Cleveland. He took a page out of LeBron James’ book and penned an open letter making his intentions known. If you want to read the full letter you can find it here. But to a Cleveland fan, this is all we needed to hear:

Its looking like the Cavaliers are close to making another couple of signings as well. #ALLinCLE!!!
The NBA Finals are over, but that doesn’t mean the Cavs and LeBron James are not in the news. LeBron is expected to once again work out a one-year contract with a player option for the 2016-17 season. Doing so would allow him to again hold the leverage next summer and sign a new deal after the league’s salary cap and maximum salaries rise due to the NBA’s massive new TV contract. He’s expected to wait until the Cavaliers resolve situations with Kevin Love, Tristan Thompson, Brendan Haywood’s non-guaranteed contract and J.R. Smith before making his new deal official.

The Cavs made an incredible run to the NBA Finals this past year. They posted this image to their Facebook page the night of the last game of the finals with a simple note: “Keep the faith, Cleveland.”

We absolutely will. Thanks for the amazing ride Cavs. We can’t wait for next season!
I try to keep things very positive here on TCB. We all know that our beloved Cleveland Cavaliers came up short last night in the NBA Finals. They battled to the very end. Playing essentially with only 7 guys the Cavs made a run that has galvanized the city and has us excited for the future.
The Plain Dealer on its front cover chose to tell a different story.
I won’t go into this a whole lot, but this is really upsetting to me. They had a chance to embrace the city and this team and they chose to go this route. All I’ll say is this… Does it surprise anyone that no one subscribes any more?
I was sitting in one of my favorite Cleveland watering holes (The Winking Lizard) the other day and saw this stat flash across the television. It’s been 50 seasons since the Indians last won a title. 47 seasons for the Browns, 44 for the the Cavaliers. Will those streaks continue or will the Cavs be able to come back from a 2-3 deficit in the NBA Finals?
How long will these streaks continue? If it’s not the Cavs this season what is the best chance for Cleveland to win a title?
Nature Boy Ric Flair was in the house last night for Game 4 of the NBA Finals. As a pro wrestling fan for the past 30 years this was totally awesome for me. WOOOOOO! One question… Why is Moondog wearing underwear?

A view from outside Quicken Loans arena on Tuesday when the Cavs took on the Warriors in Game #3 of the NBA Finals (Cleveland won 96-91 taking a 2-1 series advantage).
For years… decades even, a Cleveland sports fan’s mantra has been, “There’s always next year”. The Cavaliers are two wins away from making next year THIS year.

No Kyrie Irving. No Kevin Love. Never fear… we’ve got the best basketball player on the planet and his Australian buddy Matthew Dellavedova. Last night in Oakland, the Cavaliers won a NBA Finals game for the first time in franchise history. With that victory, the series comes home to Cleveland tied 1-1.
