And in addition to them not losing yet, Lebron won't leave. Even if he does, he would be unwise to join the Knicks. They will be hard pressed to put together a supporting cast beyond the one or two players they can bring in because of LBJ.
Admittedly, a lot of Cavs fans are actually just Lebron fans (how many Bulls fans were there in the 90s?). However, I watched them before and will watch them after. I definately follow them more now, but I attribute it to this: Basketball, like baseball and hockey, are hard to watch imo until the playoffs. No playoffs = less following.

PS - I will try to get in contact with a few football sim forums I used to frequent. Those guys would fit in well here.
