All In on the Cavs Bandwagon

I hope the Cavs win an NBA title.

I did not feel this way before the best basketball player in the world said he was going to play for them. I am a bandwagaon Cavaliers fan.

I have not seen more than one quarter of a regular season NBA game in years. (Decades? Ever?) I follow the playoffs but don't sit down to watch full games of that either. I got into the 2013 Finals, but that's about it since the Jordan era.

I am a casual NBA fan.

I wanted LeBron to win a title in Miami because I thought he deserved it after being the best player in the league for so long. But I didn't care about the Heat winning.

But now, I'm excited for Cleveland. Across all their sports teams, they've had moderate success and plenty of heartbreak. I think it would be fantastic for them to win a title and mean so much more than if San Antonio or LA or Boston wins another.

I'm not buying a Cavs shirt. I'm not claiming to be a fan of the team. But I want them to win. I'll loosely follow them, watch some highlights. It's not how I am with any other teams. But I think that's okay.
