Last week I announced here that I was re-signing with the Cavaliers. Today, the deal is inked and I can officially say I’m going to be a Cav for the next six years. Now that free agency is over, I get to focus on the game that I grew up loving. The same game I grew up watching on TV and playing in the driveway against my dad. I talked to my parents and other people that I trust about my plans and they all said basically the same thing: We just want you to be happy. And that was it for me because I just want to focus on basketball. So that’s what I’m going to do, focus on basketball and get back on the court in time for the start of the season. But before that, I wanted to break down some of my thoughts and expand on my announcement last week … starting with the gut-wrenching feeling I had watching the Warriors hoist the trophy after Game 6 of the Finals. __________________________________________ Welcome to The Players’ Tribune, a new media platform that presents the voices of professional athletes, bringing fans closer to the games they love than ever before.
