Brian Scalabrine’s homecoming letter is more important than LeBron’s

He might not be LeBron James, but Brian Scalabrine’s letter sure is.

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Brian Scalabrine had his own decision to make and after arduous months of thought he took the plunge by re-signing with the Boston Celtics.

Don’t you dare poo-poo Scalabrine’s decision. It’s every bit as momentous as LeBron and he even wrote an essay to prove it.

I’m doing this essay because I want an opportunity to explain myself uninterrupted...and gather some great press based on another recent NBA signing...in almost the exact same way. I don’t want anyone thinking: He and Mark Jackson didn’t get along ... The Bulls and Warriors couldn’t put the right team together ... Does anyone really care what Brian Scalabrine is doing right now?

Yes, we care what Brian Scalabrine is doing right now. Thank you for enlightening us.
