Team gut-check time. If they can't get up for this one, then it's time Grant starts making calls. I can handle losing, but not with players that don't give a shit.

I see the Cavs losing by less than at the Q 12/2/10...

Heat 97
Cavs 84

Hickson 17 pts
Gibson 13 pts
Mo 12 pts
Varejao 9 pts
-----------------
James 26 pts

Is it coincidence the Cavs haven't won since they faced the Heat and the Heat haven't lost?

not even close to a big enough line. Add a 1 infront of that 6 and I'll throw down 100$

The CAVS are due a win if not just by sheer luck at this point. Will they win this game not likely. How strange to go from routing for the best record to hoping for the most losses to aquire some unproven college player. I have to laugh at this or I would cry.

I really believe that Lebron told Jawad to stay in Cleveland to sabotage the team and inform him about what's going on in the organization.

I want somebody to put a body on Lebron so he's not just smiling the whole game (knocking him out of the sky is encouraged too)

I actually fear a suspension coming for somebody. The humiliation they suffered, plus all the backlash they took last game from all the fans for being pussies and not standing up to Lebron, plus the fact Lebron'll be shoulder-shruggin' and clownin' on them for the whole first quarter.... someone's gonna deck the dude out of frustration and it's not gonna be pretty. My money's on Hollins or Joey Graham if he even plays.

Hey LeBron, I hope you're ready for what's coming to you tomorrow night....and that's the smooch of a lifetime from our very own Cavaliers!!!

LeBron James apparently didn’t say all he wanted to the first time. As James prepares for Wednesday’s rematch against his old team, James said he expects to talk just as much as he did the first time.

Much was made about how much time James spent jawing with former teammates two weeks ago in the Cavs’ 118-90 loss to James and the Heat in Cleveland. With James preparing to welcome his former teammates to his new castle, he made clear on Tuesday that there wasn’t any joking going on between he and the Cavs players.

“I joke sometimes during the game, but there wasn’t no joking. The allegations of me and Daniel joking, it wasn’t joking,” James said. “If it was, then I was doing a good job getting them out of their game because I was in full focus. But there wasn’t any joking and I’ll probably be talking to them tomorrow — again.”

Asked if he would consider it trash talking, James responded: “I guess you could call it that.”

That seems to be in stark contrast to his response Monday night, when he was asked after the Heat’s win over New Orleans if he feels badly to see the Cavaliers struggling this season.

“Of course. I know what type of competitors the guys that I played with (are). They don’t like to lose. When we were together, we never liked to lose, so it’s definitely a tough situation going on in Cleveland. I wish those guys the best. It just so happened that they haven’t won since we played them and now they’re coming here when we’re still rolling. As much as I would love for them to get back on track, I don’t want them to get back on track against us in their next game.”

In a surprising twist, former Cav Zydrunas Ilgauskas is the one who said he has no sympathy for his old team.

“I do not feel bad for anybody. Why should I? It’s a business,” Ilgauskas said. “They want to beat us just as badly as we want to beat them. Everybody is competitive.”

The buildup and anticipation to this game is obviously much less than the buildup to James’ return to Cleveland on Dec. 2. That game was almost a relief to both James and his new teammates to just get it out of the way. But James still has deep emotions when talking about his old team. Asked if facing the Cavs is like facing any other team in the league, James said “not yet.”

“It’s not just another opponent. It’s only the second time I’ve played them since I left,” he said. “It adds a little bit more fuel to it, of course, because you’re going against some of your old friends, teammates and coaches from when I was there. It doesn’t feel like just another opponent.”
