After making some pretty harsh comments about LeBron James after he left his team, NBA owner Dan Gilbert was fined $100,000 on Monday by NBA Commissioner David Stern for comments he said were a little “extreme”. But fans in Cleveland love Dan so much for standing up for the city they’re actually coming forward and offering to help him pay his fine. Here’s hopefully the last time we’ll hear him talking about this:
“The humbling offer by so many is another reflection of the strength of Cavs fans and the people who live and work in this region and are always the first to step up and have each other’s back. I will pay this fine myself, but would be grateful and highly appreciative for any fan who redirects the dollars they kindly offered to contribute towards this fine to the Cavaliers Youth Fund, which will positively impact our region’s kids through the numerous local charitable groups the Cavaliers Youth Fund supports.”
We feel like Dan is five minutes away from trying to lace up his sneakers next season……

the Cavs are about to have their asses handed to them next season… sorry Dan. There are no Cavs fans, only current and former Lebron fans.
GO GET HIM STERN
