Former Cav Says Cleveland Would Build LeBron James Statues If He Wins Title

If LeBron James brings a championship to Cleveland, fans there would have gone from burning his jerseys to honoring him in every way imaginable.

For starters, he'd undoubtedly get a statue built in his honor, and according to former Cleveland Cavaliers player Austin Carr, the city of Cleveland wouldn't just stop with one.

Here's what Carr, a Cavalier from 1971 to 1980, thinks would happen if James won a championship for Cleveland, per Marc J. Spears of Yahoo Sports: "They would build a bronze statue in front of every building in the city. For him to bring it back here, especially the first year back, he would rise above anybody that has ever played in any sport in this town.
