Maybe Now The Cavs Can Just Let LeBron Cook?
The Cavs did well at the trade deadline, shipping off several of their worst defensive players and returning a group of guys who seem better suited to playing alongside LeBron, for however long he’ll be around. LeBron himself said the changes “should be fun,” which probably means nothing but certain...
The Cavs Are Getting Pretty Much Everyone The Fuck Out Of Here<em></em>
Not only have the Cavaliers given Isaiah Thomas and Channing Frye the boot today, but they’re now trading four more players. (Yes, “the Cavaliers” can reasonably be interpreted as “LeBron James.”) Adios to Jae Crowder, Derrick Rose, Iman Shumpert, and Dwyane Wade. There goes a third of the roster....
Report: Cavaliers Get Isaiah Thomas The Fuck Out Of Here<em></em>
After just 15 games as an active member of the Cavaliers, Isaiah Thomas is on his way out of Cleveland. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported this morning that the Cavs were acquiring Jordan Clarkson and Larry Nance from the Lakers, with the Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor first reporting that Isaiah Thomas an...
LeBron Puts Together Goddamn Ridiculous Final 30 Seconds For Cavaliers Win
Tonight’s Timberwolves-Cavaliers game was stupidly fun on several fronts—an NBA record 40 three-pointers, for one thing; a total of 34 lead changes, for another—but the fact that it ended with an insane series of LeBron James plays, each more dazzling than the last, was maybe the most fun of all. ...
Cavs Reach New Low, Somehow
The Cleveland Cavaliers, a snake pit of internecine feuds, are playing like reheated slop at the moment, and tonight their on-court dysfunction reached a new, embarrassing nadir. Losing to a irrepressible Rockets by one million points on national TV is one thing, but getting owned by the Orlando Mag...
The Cavs Are In A Very Dark Place
The Cleveland Cavaliers, who stink real bad, lost to the Rockets in embarrassing fashion last night, by a score of 120-88. A 32-point blowout on national TV is about as bad as it gets, and the Cavs gave no indication that they are in any kind of shape to dig themselves out of this hole....
Kevin Love Reportedly Out Six To Eight Weeks With Hand Fracture
Kevin Love will reportedly be out for six to eight weeks after injuring his hand in the first quarter of tonight’s game against the Pistons. He left the game shortly after making contact with Anthony Tolliver while trying to grab a pass, and initial x-rays showed a fracture....
Isaiah Thomas Is Having A Bad Time
Adrian Wojnarowski reported last week that at least one Cavs player “challenged the legitimacy” of an illness that kept Kevin Love from sticking around through the end of a game last Saturday, and then kept him out of practice on Sunday. Eventually that anonymous player was identified as Isaiah Thom...
The Hottest Take: The Cavs Should Trade LeBron
The Cleveland Cavaliers suck. They can’t play defense. They’re accusing each other of faking sick. And while it has become ritual for this team to endure a prolonged stretch of eating shit in the regular season before getting their act together in time to brush the rest of an eternally weak Eastern ...
Congratulations To Deadspin For This Blog Post About LeBron James's Instagram
Today, LeBron James congratulated himself for scoring his 30,000th career point, a feat he will likely accomplish tonight as he’s just seven points shy of the mark....
Report: More Cavaliers Drama, Now With An Argument Over Whether Kevin Love Was Actually Sick This Weekend
The Cavaliers remain messy in every relevant sense. Having now dropped six of their last eight, they spent part of Monday’s off-day in a team meeting which featured the hot topic of whether or not Kevin Love was really sick this weekend....
Let's Just Watch This Cool LeBron James Pass All Day
The Cleveland Cavaliers stink, a few Cavs players really want everyone to know they stink, and hopes of getting it together in time for the playoffs are getting dimmer. Last night, they blew a 23-point lead to the Orlando Magic at home only to be saved by two Isaiah Thomas free throws in the final s...
The Warriors Were Not Happy To Find They Had No Hot Water In The Locker Room
After their 118-108 victory over the Cavaliers in Cleveland last night, the Golden State Warriors found that there was no hot water in the locker room....
A Few Cavs Players Really Want Everyone To Know That The Cavs Suck
Multiple outlets are reporting today that several “prominent” members of the Cleveland Cavaliers have serious doubts about whether this current version of the team can stop sucking. What’s interesting is not that the players believe this, but how they went about getting the word out....
The Warriors Still Look Unstoppable
For the second time this season, a Cavs-Warriors holiday game didn’t give much hope that any team but Golden State could win the NBA title this year. Playing in Ohio for their final scheduled meeting with the Cavs this season, the Warriors calmly took care of a Cleveland team that put up perhaps the...
This Was One Rough Night For The Cavaliers
The Cavaliers have now lost five of their last seven games, but none of those losses has come close to being so ugly as tonight. It’s grossly obvious in the final score—127-99, Timberwolves—but it was obvious in just about every single moment prior, with Minnesota scoring first and never relinquishi...
Yeah, Kyrie Was Ready To Get Away From LeBron<em></em>
Tonight the Celtics and Cavaliers will meet for the second time this season, and ESPN’s Jackie MacMullan marked the rematch of the East’s two best teams with a feature on Kyrie Irving. Irving’s first half-season out from under LeBron James has been an unquestioned success, an especially impressive f...
Isaiah Thomas Back?
Isaiah Thomas back! After missing the first 36 games of the season recovering from a hip injury, the wee scoring machine will make his Cleveland Cavaliers debut tonight, against the Portland Trail Blazers*. To be honest, I’d nearly forgotten him. ...
NBA Admits Kevin Durant Fouled LeBron James Three Times In Final Two Minutes
The NBA has acknowledged that the referees screwed up on the string of no-foul calls in the final minutes of yesterday’s Warriors victory over the Cavaliers. The Last Two Minute report from the game identifies three Kevin Durant fouls that were not called, as well as one by LeBron James. ...
