Enes Kanter Celebrated LeBron James's Ejection By Getting Spicy Online<em></em>
Last night, LeBron James was ejected from a game for the first time in his 15-year NBA career. James claimed he’d reacted because James Johnson had fouled him “all the way up the court.” Referee Kane Fitzgerald explained he ejected LeBron because of a series of transgressions, including LeBron charg...

LeBron James Got Ejected For The First Time Ever And The Cavs Still Beat The Heat<em></em>
The NBA’s resident good boy LeBron James got really upset over a no-call and they just threw him right out of the game, right there. It didn’t really end up having a major impact, but it felt like a big deal at the time....

Kyle Korver's Fourth Quarter Got The Cavaliers There
Tonight’s first half between the Knicks and Cavaliers inspired a bit of feeling that the Knicks might really be here: that their young talent could gel well enough to take down a top-tier talent like Cleveland, that Frank Ntilikina could be bold enough to shove LeBron around a little, that the team ...

Come, Bask In The Glow Of A Beautiful Moment
LeBron James and Enes Kanter briefly got into it in the closing seconds of tonight’s first quarter—a scuffle that was quickly broken up and didn’t result in much, but it did give us these beautiful photos of the incident captured by Elsa of Getty Images. ...

Giannis Antetokounmpo Denied By Older, Smaller Opponent<em></em>
Giannis Antetokounmpo turned in another monstrous night against the Cavs, scoring 40 points on 16-21 shooting. But this was not one of his finer moments. The Greek Freak looked guaranteed to score when he got the ball right under the basket, with only Dwyane Wade anywhere near him....

Rambling Flat-Earth Truther Suggests Tyronn Lue Lacks "Intellectual Mind"
Kyrie Irving, a splendid basketball player with a habit of speaking like his entire vocabulary of multisyllabic words is operated by a lotto machine, went on Geno Auriemma’s podcast and told the coach that his eagerness to join the Boston Celtics came down, in part, to “intellectual human being” Bra...

LeBron James Devoured The Noisy Wizards
The context for LeBron’s 57-point masterpiece last night is something I, a devoted Wizards fan, would prefer to ignore—the Wizards spent portions of the spring and an interview with ESPN’s The Jump chirping that the Cavs ducked them in last season’s playoffs, and went so far as to say that they, the...

Lance Stephenson Slaps LeBron In The Dick And Balls
Cleveland must have experienced some bizarre time warp tonight, because it’s the year 2017, and the Pacers’ Lance Stephenson is still making life extremely unpleasant for LeBron James. This time, the meme-able bench player came at LeBron as he drove down the lane, waving his right arm in wild desper...

The Cavaliers Stink!
Append all the ordinary caveats, of course: It’s October; they’re without Isaiah Thomas; they’re integrating what seems like a small army of new players; the East is so godawful shitty there’s basically no floor to playoff contention; and so on. Fine. But still. The Cleveland Cavaliers are not just ...

Three Sick LeBron James Passes

Isaiah Thomas Has Had It Rough
The new Lee Jenkins jam does what it usually does—suffuse its subject with a big old cloud of pathos—and his current subject, Isaiah Thomas, couldn’t be more deserving of the treatment. Thomas landed in Boston after languishing under-appreciated in Sacramento and Phoenix, made All-NBA teams, led the...

The Cavs Will Go Small And Weird, Start Kevin Love At Center
The Cleveland Cavaliers will open the season with Kevin Love as their center, giving them a small and very weird starting five of Love, Jae Crowder, LeBron James, (presumably) J.R. Smith, and Derrick Rose. That’s only assuming they don’t go all-the-way bonkers and give the shooting guard job to Dwy...
