The 70s were pretty incredible for Oakland / the east bay side:

72 A's
73 A's
74 A's
75 Warriors (SF at the time but the Bay's only team)
76 Raiders

Man, and then you have cities like Cleveland

The 70s haven't been friendly
The 80s haven't been friendly
The 90s haven't been friendly
The 00s haven't been friendly
The 10s so far haven't been friendly

Only San Diego understands that kind of futility.

A healthy Heat team could give Cleveland fits in the playoffs. Dragic, Wade, Whiteside, Bosh, and Deng is a good enough starting lineup to win 50+ games, and get to the Eastern Conference Finals. Plus a bench of McRoberts, Ennis, Chalmers, Napier, Birdman, and whoever we draft from the top 10(hopefully Stanley Johnson) and whoever we pick up in free agency(hopefully Danny Greene) would take Miami to the next level.

Sports put aside since the NBA season has ended ... Cleveland continues to bear witness to an incredible RESURGENCE on nearly every front!

In reporting an Atlantic piece on James Corner’s fantastic redesign of Cleveland’s Public Square, I was surprised by the strength of the city’s downtown revival. After a tailspin in the 1980s, Cleveland’s downtown population soared 32 percent from 1990 to 2000—the biggest rise of any Midwest city (including Chicago) and far above the regional average (7.7 percent), according to Brookings. The climb has continued at pace; last summer downtown reportedly reached an “all-time high” of 12,500, with an astonishing residential occupancy rate of 98 percent.

Downtown Cleveland has seen over $9 BILLION in new developments and redevelopments in just a span of five years time, it shows no signs of slowing either.

I don't care what the local boosters say, to me there is nothing in Cleveland that's appealing. The Town by far.
