We, the undersigned, would like to enthusiastically encourage you to sign a contract extension with the Cleveland Cavaliers when you become a free agent on July 1, 2010. It is obvious that we want you to remain in Cleveland because you are a phenomenal basketball player. But more importantly, we would like you to consider what you mean to Cleveland as a city. Cleveland needs a hero. You have served this role well over the past several years. If you were to leave, not only would our beloved basketball team fall, but our hope and inspiration would also take yet another beating. This city has been downtrodden long enough. The notion of being a big star in a big city must be exhilarating. However, we would like you to ask yourself this:

Why would you want to be an icon, when you can be a savior?
