    My knowledge of geography might not be the strongest, so bear with me. Isn’t Lebron fro Akron? Akron is not Cleveland and Cleveland is not Akron.

    Well, yes and no. Akron is at times rather proud of its not Cleveland status, but being only a little more than a half hour drive from downtown Cleveland, it’s very much a part of the greater Cleveland region. Akron sports fans mostly root for Cleveland teams, people in Cleveland saw LeBron play in high school. The entire NE Ohio region is relatively close knit and it’s that region that LeBron came home to. When 1.3 million people turned out for the Cavs victory parade, they didn’t all come from Cleveland (Cleveland’s entire population is only about a third of that)

    What? You’ve never heard of the Kenai Kings, the Juneau Jumpers, or the Nome Nets ?
