Open Letter to Fans from Cavaliers Majority Owner Dan Gilbert

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters
Wherever You May Be Tonight;

As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he
deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.

This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional
build-up culminating with a national TV special of his “decision” unlike
anything ever “witnessed” in the history of sports and probably the history
of entertainment.

Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.

The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working,
loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not
betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.

There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our
more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be
communicating much of that to you.

You simply don’t deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

You have given so much and deserve so much more.

In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:

“I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA
CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF-TITLED FORMER ‘KING’ WINS ONE”

You can take it to the bank.

If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to
Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and
betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our “motivation” to previously
unknown and previously never experienced levels.

Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.

Sorry, but that’s simply not how it works.

This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown “chosen one” sends the
exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn.  And “who
” we would want them to grow-up to become.

But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as
the antidote to the so-called “curse” on Cleveland, Ohio.

The self-declared former “King” will be taking the “curse” with him down
south. And until he does “right” by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town
where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.

Just watch.

Sleep well, Cleveland.

Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day….

I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will
be directed at one thing and one thing only:

DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue….

Dan Gilbert

Majority Owner
