The NFL season has just begun and new Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James can't get any more pumped up to see how his Cleveland Browns perform.
Man I swear I’m so EXCITED to watch @Browns today! I’m up like I’m headed to the stadium to prepare to play.
— LeBron James (@KingJames) September 9, 2018
The four-time NBA Most Valuable Player may be playing basketball for Los Angeles now, but his heart will always go back to Cleveland. 2017 was a year of misery for the Browns in which they had a forgettable 0-16 campaign. James spilled his thoughts in an interview with Jason Lloyd of The Athletic earlier this year.
“I got a kick out of it. I can't even sit here and say that I didn't. You know how you see some sh– and you're like, ‘That's not really happening, right?' And it's so bad that it's laughable. So when I seen the video at Browns Stadium, I was more like, ‘I cannot believe this is actually happening.' And it actually happened.”
James, the team player that he is, reiterated that the Browns should be able to instill a better team culture in the system. The three-time world champion tweeted out a piece of his mind in a conversation with Tom Withers of The Associated Press, per For The Win's Alysha Tsuji.
James responded by saying he believes they can and that adding players who can win will help them change their culture.
When Withers replied to ask if everyone on the Browns will be able to put the team first, James said they should have that figured out already. He added, “Team over I all day.”
The good thing for the Browns is that when you've hit rock bottom, there's no other way but to get up. With the most influential athlete backing them up, there are plenty of reasons why the Browns should get optimistic and motivated to turn things around.
