Rice: 'It's Hard' to Root for LeBron as a Heat Fan

Interviews-wqam

Former Miami Heat sniper Glen Rice explains why it's difficult for Miami fans to root for LeBron James as the Cavs battle the Bulls in the NBA playoffs.

"They don't have anyone to root for on Cleveland other than nobody so it's really easy," Rice said on 560 WQAM's Marc Hochman Show with Zach Krantz. "Lebron was here for so long and did so many great things for us. It's hard to imagine that now he's in Cleveland doing it for Cleveland.

"So its kind of hard right now to flip over and be a LeBron James fan when you're a Miami Heat fan because it's still so fresh in our minds and he did so many great things here."

Are you rooting for Lebron?
