As the Cleveland Cavaliers celebrated their world championship with a parade in downtown Cleveland that drew 1.3 million spectators, LeBron James was in a good mood.
.
LeBron praised everyone in the speech, which you can watch here, including Kevin Love, Mo Williams, and Dahntay Jones. And he did so by making fun of some of the criticisms he and the Cavaliers have received over the last two years while sharing specific, frequently humorous anecdotes. According to Sporting News, James, who is typically composed and cautious, also swore thirteen times throughout a 16-minute speech.

In all honesty, we hadn't seen this side of LeBron in a long time. He appeared to be enjoying the situation and was at ease. On a day full of a lot of great moment in Cleveland, this may top them all. By all standards, LeBron deserved this opportunity.
