5 worst losses in LeBron James’s career

February 07 04:35 2018

Gordon will miss his fifth straight game and second against the Cavaliers. Keeping his job isn’t now one of them.

Now the two teams are preparing to meet Wednesday with the Cavs’ roof collapsing and foundation beginning to crumble.

LeBron James re-affirmed what has been reported about the possibility of waiving his no-trade clause following Cleveland’s mind-blowing 116-98 loss to the Orlando Magic in which they blew a 21-point lead.

Since LeBron James returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers, they have made it to the NBA Finals every season.

LeBron James is the best player on the Cavaliers team from a fantasy basketball perspective, with 52.65 fantasy points per game. “Unfortunately he’s sick and that’s all we heard”, James said.

“Him (Lue) being out is an excuse and I’m been around too long to make excuses like that”, Dwayne Wade said of the Cavs poor second half. Then, there were reports that basically everyone in the room was yelled at by someone. “That’s what I can control”. Thomas scored 11 points on 3 of 13 shooting against the Magic. Orlando throttled Cleveland to the tune of a 41-22 edge in the third quarter and then it mostly smothered the Cavs in a 24-9 fourth period. Bailey Kargo scored 18 points for Delaware. Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan combined for 38 points but the difference-maker was CJ Miles, who was 6 of 8 from the field with five 3-pointers and 20 points in just 15 minutes of playing time. He’s going through a puzzling slump, and after scoring just 11 points and taking only 10 shots on Saturday, his night ended with him whipping the ball in disgust toward one hoop as the third quarter horn sounded. The No. 17 Ohio State men’s team (20-5, 11-1 Big Ten) suspended guard Kam Williams indefinitely for violating team rules before its 75-67 victory over IL (12-12, 2-9). But if the four-time league MVP continues to play so far below the standards he’s set during his 15-year career, it will make his comments on Friday seem like lip service. Kozlova, contesting her first WTA final, had beaten Babos in their only previous meeting, in the qualifying of the 2015 Qatar Total Open in Doha.

Simmons made seven of eight shots in his 22-point quarter, finishing the period with a 3-point buzzer shot in a game in which he nearly did not play because of a sprained right ankle. There was no drive, no motivation shown to help the Cavs figure out this mess, except for an interesting first-quarter huddle discussion with assistant coach Mike Longabardi.
