I posted this in the Blatt thread and will post it here as well. LeBron and James Jones basically called out the team after the Toronto loss in a players-only meeting.
LeBron James, James Jones question players' mindset after loss to Raptors

Following a 103-99 road loss to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday, the Cleveland Cavaliers held a players-only meeting during which LeBron James and James Jones got on the team for their inconsistent play through the Cavs' 11-4 start to the season, multiple sources told ESPN.com.
The way we played in the 4th quarter tonight was mindless and often gutless. I'm glad that LeBron and Jones brought it up.
In the big scheme it's not a huge deal, we're still very injured right now. But what was happening down the stretch of the game was not what you see from a championship-level team. The defensive breakdowns and lack of effort, along with the scattered offense, just won't work.
