WATCH: LeBron Sings Happy Birthday to Kevin Love, Sounds Like Nelson from the Simpsons

CLEVELAND, OH — LeBron James showed his Love for Kevin Love today — serenading him via Instagram by singing Happy Birthday to an image of a March 24, 2008 Sports Illustrated NCAA Tournament Issue with Kevin Love on the cover decked out in his UCLA uniform.

As soon as the video begins, you can't help but laugh and at the same time feel a sense of gratitude that LeBron chose a career in basketball instead of singing. James' singing voice sounds kind of like Nelson from the Simpsons and he even closes with a hearty HA HA! just like Nelson. The pointing at Love when he sings the "YOU" part of "Happy Birthday to You!" is a nice touch.

But the best birthday gift of all is a championship ring and Love will have to wait until October 25th to receive that gift at the Cavs home opener against the Knicks.
