NBA  > General NBA  > From T&R: Lebron: I'm not leaving Cleveland yet....
June 1, 2009, 03:30 PM
LeBron James finally talked about not making the NBA Finals, and insists Cleveland's loss to Orlando will not impact his future with the Cavaliers. James stormed out of Amway Arena without speaking to the media Saturday night after the host Magic eliminated the Cavaliers, 103-90, in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals. The league MVP, who also did not shake hands with Olympic teammate Dwight Howard or congratulate any Orlando players as he left the floor, said yesterday that he's happy in Cleveland and feels the Cavaliers made major progress this season. "I'm great. I feel great about this situation that's going on," James said at Cleveland's training facility in Independence, Ohio, where the team gathered one last time before parting ways for the summer. "You want to continue to get better, that's all you can ask. We got better and I feel this team will be better next season. You don't want to take a step backward."

That word "Yet," pretty unsettling if you're a Cavs fan...it's Carlos Boozer all over again!
