BOSTON – It was here in the Boston Garden that LeBron James ended his career in Cleveland, with a second playoff loss in three years that helped convince him he could never be a champion with the Cavaliers.
James returned to Boston on Tuesday night, this time with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh on a Miami Heat superteam that is expected to bring the two-time league MVP the NBA title he couldn't win in Cleveland.
"I'm excited about this new start. I'm excited about this season. I'm excited about this team and this franchise," James said before the NBA opener against the Celtics. "I'm excited to get it going in a city where (I've) struggled."
Returning to the floor where the Cavaliers were eliminated from the Eastern Conference semifinals in six games — one round after Wade and the Heat went out in five — James avoided questions about the controversial summer in which he became the NBA's biggest villain except to say, "It was pretty long."
"This is fun. This is the best time of the year," he said. "I'm at a point where I'm looking forward to playing the games."
