Report: More Cavaliers Drama, Now With An Argument Over Whether Kevin Love Was Actually 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...

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. ...

Warriors Beat Cavs After Repeated No-Calls On Fouls Against LeBron James
A 31-point, 18-rebound game from Kevin Love went to waste as the Warriors beat Cleveland 99-92 thanks in part to officials refusing to call a foul on Kevin Durant as the Golden State star manhandled LeBron James in the final minute of the game....

LeBron James Put On A Great Dad Performance
The Cleveland Cavaliers narrowly defeated the strangely and suddenly competent Chicago Bulls last night, and they were led, as usual, by LeBron James. He scored 34 points to go along with nine assists, and he also demonstrated elite dad abilities....

Leaked Chinese Footage Unearths LeBron's Coded Message To Lonzo Ball: Try Hard And Focus
Did you catch LeBron James having a cool little whispering-into-your-shirt party with Lonzo Ball after the Cavs beat the Lakers last night? The two convened shortly after the game finished. It was there, in front of a bank of cameras, that James schooled Ball on, uh, something for a few seconds. Bal...

The Cavs Are Having So Much Fun
We talk about LeBron James and his team pretty often around here, but their 123-114 win over Atlanta tonight (not as close as it appears) was yet another reminder of how the King can take your breath away. The Cavs always dominate the Hawks—they’ve hit in NBA-record 25 threes against them twice—and ...

LeBron Was Extremely LeBron Tonight
Here is a staggering stat that only makes sense when you know it’s about LeBron James: Heading into tonight, King James had fallen one rebound or one assist shy of a triple-double 34 times. (He has 57 legit triple-doubles throughout his career as well.) He was just short of that mark again tonight a...

LeBron James Has Realized The Limits Of Human Empathy
Today LeBron James spoke briefly about the grim saga of Derrick Rose, whose desiccated body drifted back to Cleveland this morning. LeBron’s comment was unremarkable in Rose-related insight, which it seemed explicitly crafted to avoid. But it was amusing in its insight on the human condition. In the...

Derrick Rose Returns From Self-Exile To Play Basketball Poorly Sometimes<em></em>
Guard Derrick Rose, who abruptly left the Cavaliers back on Nov. 24 to, like, go sit on a boardwalk and watch happy couples stroll by and stare at his reflection in a rainy window while a mopey Stan Bush track plays in the background, has returned to Cleveland, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowksi...

LeBron James Is Just A Normal 33-Year-Old Guy
Just in his 15th year on the job, doing regular stuff....
