More than a Game

LeBron Sentimental about Akron Release of Film

ESPN.com:
A few miles from the high school where he became a phenom, the NBA's reigning MVP hosted an advance screening of the documentary, "More Than A Game," a film about James' ascent to superstardom and the four childhood friends who helped him get there.

James will visit China, London and make other stops abroad to promote the film, but none of them will compare to showing it in his hometown.

"It means everything," the Cleveland Cavaliers megastar said. "This is where I was born, and I like to give back to the city where I came from. I wouldn't be the person I am without this city. The hardships and the great things that I have gone through have all built LeBron James.

"So to be able to come back and premiere a movie like this in a building I have seen my whole life is great."

LeBron has always raved about his love for his hometown, and what a better time to showcase that than the day that you are promoting the movie about growing up there. However if I am a Cavs fan this definitely makes me happy and reminds me that LeBron is an extremely loyal person and loves his hometown- making one of the initial releases in little Akron, Ohio before heading to China, London and big time US Locations (including NY on Sept 20th).

For those that are curious, the Official release of the movie is set for Oct 2nd
