LeBron James News: LBJ Greeted Warmly By Cavs Fans In Training Camp, Expected To Win His 3rd NBA Title This Year?

The Cavs have started their training camp and the latest news about LeBron James is his eagerness to make this new team unlike his former Miami Heat squad back in 2010. 

When James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh decided to team up to chase rings, a lot of people thought that a new dynasty was born. The Heat's Big Three did just that after four successive trips to the Finals, winning two in the process, but no one expected the team-up to be short-lived. 

Following an embarassing defeat to the San Antonio Spurs in last year's championship series, James decided to return home to Cleveland where a core of younger players are waiting. 

Another notable acquisition is Kevin Love from the Wolves, an elite scorer and rebounder who is deemed to become the best power forward in the NBA today. Add the reigning All-Star MVP Kyrie Irving to the mix and you have the new Big Three, which is arguably better than the one forged in South Beach for years ago. 

During the team practice, the Quicken Loans Arena looked like the venue for a playoff game, with attendance notching more than 18,000. 

James commended the fans' support for the Cavs, saying that they have a very 'great reaction', probably to everything that's been happening to their home team. 

Even coach David Blatt and Love were surprised at how the Cleveland fans have welcomed the team and showed their support for the upcoming NBA 2014-15 season. 

While Blatt certainly has everything he could ask for in a team, his main role is to ensure balance in usage and playing time for his three stars. 

If the Cavs' Big Three lives up to its resume, and the supporting players play their part, we'll expect Cleveland to make a strong contention for the NBA title.
