LeBron James
was running the gamut of emotions when he arrived at the arena that he
called home for the past four seasons. So did the fans who were seeing
him again.
They
booed the four-time NBA MVP when he and the Cleveland Cavaliers took
the court for warmups, kept booing when he touched the ball, gave him a
mixed reaction when he was introduced as a starter, then cheered - that
is, cheered - when he turned the ball over on one of his first touches.
But
perhaps the truest measure of how James is remembered came during the
first timeout of the game, when the Heat unveiled a tribute video for
their former star - a minute-long series of clips commemorating his four
NBA Finals runs and two titles in Miami, after which he waved to the
crowd and got a lengthy standing ovation. No, Miami isn't happy he left.
