Cavs vs Heat game has finally arrived, with Lebron James playing against his old team for the first time this NBA season.
James' highly controversial decision to leave his hometown, Cleveland Cavaliers, to play for the Miami Heat this year, enraged many Cleveland fans.

Now, the over-hyped Heat have struggled out of the gates with an 11-8 record and are looking to turn things around tonight.
"It's going to be tough, but I'm there to win a basketball game," James said at practice on Tuesday..
As for Thursday's game against his old homeside, James says:
"I understand. I understand how passionate fans are about sports. I'm ready for whatever response that I'm going to get. It's going to be very emotional."
