LeBron James officially made the decision to sign with his old team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, after about a month of speculation surrounding his free agency from the Miami Heat. Leading up to this news, fans have been staking out his Akron, Ohio, mansion, trolling his website and commenting on social media. Now with the news confirmed, fans have taken to Twitter to react accordingly.
"When I left Cleveland, I was on a mission. I was seeking championships, and we won two," LeBron said in a new Sports Illustrated column about his decision to move home. "But Miami already knew that feeling. Our city hasn't had that feeling in a long, long, long time. My goal is still to win as many titles as possible, no question. But what's most important for me is bringing one trophy back to Northeast Ohio."
Let's take a look at some Twitter reactions to the news:

My simple question: Why is .@kingjames going back to @cavs? It would seem the @MiamiHEAT are closer to winning an @NBA title than @cavs.
