Not a Detroit or Auburn Hills [[;)) story, but it does show that the Midwest isn't dead.
James is giving up South Beach for a city which was once called "The mistake on the lake."
A little 'sun belt --> rust belt' migration isn't a bad thing.
CLE is getting the 2016 GOP convention and James. Not a bad week for that city.
was the SI piece done in comic sans?
Just goes to show if you blow up a bridge with nuclear weapons you can still rebuild it in a day with a little groveling. First Guy Lombardo, now King James and his Royal Canadians.

What is the difference between Guy Lombardo and the Royal Canadians and a moose?Quote:

this is why we have a "non-detroit" section
Lebron James left Cleveland in 2010. Dan Gilbert started investing heavily in Downtown Detroit around 2010. With Lebron returning to Cleveland will we start to see less interest in Detroit from Gilbert? :confused::rolleyes:
The NBA Central division will be one of the toughest in the league. Chicago, Cleveland, Indiana and a young improving Milwaukee team. Detroit needs to step up their game. LeBron shouldn't have never left the first time.Quote:
