Lebron James to comeback to Cleveland?

LeBron James doesn't like Pat Riley's heavy-handed rule over the Heat, according to a report by Fox Sports Ohio. LeBron James is "less-than-thrilled with certain aspects of the Heat organization," and will consider opting out of his contract after the 2013-14 season if Pat Riley remains president of the organization, Fox Sports Ohio reports. While James likes playing with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, he "doesn't particularly care for the heavy-handed and disciplined ****" of Riley, according to Fox Sports.Should James take the free agency route in '14, he'd have his eyes on returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources tell Fox Sports. A Cavs exec implied the team may not even be interested in bringing James back, telling the site that the organization wants to "build things the right way," and create a culture similar to those in San Antonio or Oklahoma City, where the focus is on the team more than the superstar.We're not sure exactly how to take that. It's obvious that the Cavs organization still holds a grudge against James, so that would be a reason while they wouldn't be interested. But to suggest the Spurs and Thunder have built their teams sans stars? Tim Duncan and Kevin Durant fit will within the definition of "star."

Earlier this week, Brian Windhorst, who covers the Heat for ESPN.com said, "I'm not saying it's happening in 2014, but before it's all over, LeBron will play [for] Cleveland. He will get a statue; they just built a statue for Jim Thome and he stiffed Cleveland just as much as LeBron." LeBron James: Would you welcome him back to the Cleveland Cavaliers some day?
