The Freak-Out Over An NBA Player's Instagram Photo Is Peak LeBron James Free Agency
In the last 24 hours alone there have been three particularly absurd LeBron rumors, all of which supposedly pointed to him leaving Miami.
This is peak LeBron free agency, and it is wonderful. The best rumors and conspiracy theories are the ones that hurt no one. That is what we have here.
Let's run through the most absurd rumors.
1. LeBron is going to Cleveland because Mike Miller posted a photo on Instagram that had an old LeBron Cavs jersey in the background.
Miller played with LeBron in his first three years in Miami. It has been rumored that the Cavaliers were looking to sign him.
On Wednesday night Miller published this photo with the caption, "14 years and still a reason to be even more hungry and motivated BELIEVE ME!!! #LETITFLY."
Interesting, VERY interesting, said Twitter:
