LeBron James' return to Cleveland was, as expected, as bad as it could get for the former Cavs star. The heckling, the booing, the "Akron Hates You" signs -- not exactly a warm welcome home for James, though he and the Heat came away with a blowout victory. While the crowd at Madison Square Garden wasn't particularly welcoming either -- after all, the King spurned the Knicks after they had waited years to to sign him in free agency -- fans in the New York weren't as bitter since their team has undergone a positive transformation with Amar'e Stoudemire. And since it was New York, of course the A-listers showed up to take in the sights. Here's a look at the celebrities who flocked to MSG for LeBron's return to the Big Apple.
