Anyone with any common sense knew this Tweet was about Kevin Love, but initially LeBron tried to deny that it was.
Stop trying to find a way to FIT-OUT and just FIT-IN. Be apart of something special! Just my thoughts

James initially denied the tweet had anything to do with the Cavaliers when asked with a larger group of reporters present and cameras rolling.
“It wasn’t even about this team. It was more about people in general,” James said. “It was just a general thought that I had, and obviously, whatever thought I had people try to encrypt it and Da Vinci Code it and all that stuff. It’s just a general thought. That’s all that is.
“And people are always trying to fit out instead of fitting in, instead of being a part of something special. And that’s all that was about.”
After Love had a big game against the Lakers, LeBron changed his tuned according to ESPN and admitted it was about Love.
LeBron James acknowledged after the Cavaliers’ 120-105 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday that his tweet late Saturday night was referencing teammate Kevin Love.
James said the wording was intentional.
“It’s not a coincidence, man,” James told a small group of reporters after the game.
LeBron was not happy about how it was portrayed and denied again that his tweet was about love.
