FWIW, the article says "team officials said James' absence is not related to his social media posts in any way."

A team that he constructed. He probably wouldn't be in this situation if he would let GM's GM and coaches coach

The team is not crap, they just don't try against crappy teams

That narrative is so tired and stupid.

Truth hurts I guess. Not sure why you are calling it a narrative when it's the truth.

Truth is it's hard to take a team To 4 straight finals. MJ never did it. Teams just get old and stale. And no one's getting to 4 straight if they're not making "win-now" moves consistently. That's life when you have the best to ever lace em up. You have to go for it year after year after year and you can't spend time reloading because that's another year potentially wasted. People take this stuff for granted.

Right now, the Cavs are a crap team. The lack of effort isn't like last season. This is about old guys not being able to stop anyone.

Yea they just happen to beat last year's playoff teams (BOS, WAS, MLK) and lose to last year's lottery teams (IND, ORL, BRK, NOP, ATL, NYK). Seems legit.
