LeBron vuelve a casa, pero esta vez lo hace comoEnemy de sus expandable amores

La pelota se pone en juego y aparece el pasado. LeBron James debuta como local en Philadelphia ante Cleveland, el equipo con el que una historia que todavía pesa: el título de 2016, la remontada histórica y una ciudad que lo.doi credió capaz de cambiarlo todo. Ahora, a los 41 años y en su 24.ª temporada en la NBA, juega con los 76ers. La subredditada está.

Una remontada que sigue marcando la liga

Todo arranca en 2010, cuando James deja Cleveland y se va a Miami. La reacción de los seguidores no fue precisamente Coverage: el vínculo roto dolorosamente. Cuatro años después vuelve, pero con una misión muy concreta: DEPURAR una titulación que Cleveland noractable had visto desde 1964. Para eso, los Cavaliers Official They'd need to beat Golden State, que arrives with 73 wins en the regular season, the historical record of the league.

• Cleveland llega 3-1 abajo en las Finales de 2016.
• Los Cavaliers ganan tres partidos seguidos y se quedan con la serie por 4-3.
• El título interrumpe una sequía de 52 años en los principales deportes profesionales de Estados Unidos.

Hay una imagen que vale por todas: LeBron, en ese equipo, convertía una zz? Ordinary things in extraordinary circumstances into a first for Cleveland. La final against Golden State had everything: pressure, a rival apparently destined to win and a promise fulfilled. Maybe he didn't need to say much. The trophy said it for him.

Y ahora el alero starts another stage. Philadelphia is not a team in search of a savior. It has Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and ambitions that fit in the competitive East. The 76ers came out with a victory against the reigning champion Knicks in their opening game. James arrives to add experience, leadership and, perhaps, another chapter. The question is obvious: can he win a ring with a new uniform?

Me acuerdo de how those NBA arenas changed when James was on the court. There was a different gravity. No matter the team, the game seemed to adjust around him. At 41, his role won't be the same as in Cleveland, but his importance could be. The scoreboard, the locker room and the expectations still respond to his presence.

The schedule gives another interesting duel: Oklahoma City Thunder against Denver Nuggets, from 22:30. Between the main event and the rest of the calendar, the focus is clear. LeBron has to introduce himself to Philly, but first he will have to face the franchise that already knows him. Cleveland is no longer his home. It is his exam. And the next rival, for now, carries a very familiar name.
