Lost in all the hubbub that surrounded LeBron James and Dan Gilbert and The Decision and the taking of talents to South Beach last summer was the fact that—despite the suuuuuper ill-advised plan for LBJ to cripple the city of Cleveland on national TV—he did raise more than $3 million for the Boys & Girls Club. And he didn't just cut a check and keep it moving, either. He recently visited the B&G Club in Miami to check out the renovations they'd made as a result of the donation and extended even more of his time and money to the efforts. It probably won't make Cavs fans feel any better, but Bron-Bron's continued charity work does make his Decision sound a lot better to us than it did back in July. Well played, sir. [via ESPN]
