Ross is a huge Miami Heat fan and has been a constant staple at the American Airlines arena. With all the recent talk about the Cavs straight dominating the Eastern Conference due to LeBron’s return, Ross is willing to bet 100k on James’s former team finishing with a better record. Hit the jump for details.
Via Slam Online:
In a recent radio interview with HOT97′s Funk Flex, MMG rapper and Miami native Rick Ross was asked his thoughts on LeBron James leaving the Heat and returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers this summer in free agency. Ross, understandably, says he was upset and confused when he first heard the news. He adds that he would “never” have returned to Cleveland if he were in LeBron’s shoes.
Ross goes on to say he still loves LeBron, even calling him “one of the greatest if not the greatest ever,” but says he “brings a lot of baggage, too.”
Near the end of the clip above, Ross predicts the Heat will finish ahead of the Cavs, and he’s willing to put up $100K his money up if anyone wants to take the bet: “We most definitely finishing better than the Cavaliers. I’ll put a 100 grand on that.” Any takers?
