being remorseful is apologizing for the past mistake, trying to be better in the future and attempting to make the offended party whole

He may have just won me back.

I hope he wins one now.

The humility to admit that HE was now ready to lead is very admirable.

I'm really hard pressed to remember an athlete make a statement at precisely the right time and hitting all of the right notes.

Yup.

The part about Miami being like college for him made a lot of sense.

Exactly. It also doesn't come off as written by a PR person at Nike either.

It's refreshing to have an athlete admit a mistake in how something was handled.

He also attended the same number of classes as a Miami athlete.

Jordan wouldn't have apologized. He would've gone back and one six straight and said "There's your apology!". Your move, Le Baby.

That is why Lebron is better than Jordan.

It's really sad to see you like this.

It was a great move and a great statement. That being said his future was clearly better in Cleveland than it would have been in Miami.

It is. I remember this version of BR and I wasn't a fan.

What he did wasn't selfless. Cleveland is in much better shape. How is he winning everyone over?

And if he's been assured that they'll try to get Love, then it's 2010 all over again: he's still frontrunning. By the way I don't think he mentioned Wiggins in his essay, and we know Wiggins is trade bait for Love.

Wiggins or Bennett weren't mentioned.

There might not be a more pointless franchise in sports than the Minnesota Timberwolves. At least shitty irrelevant NHL teams allow for howls of how undeserving the city is of top-level hockey. The T-Wolves just sit there doing nothing forever.
