It’s not even their lowest point yet either
Nobody said the Cleveland Cavaliers season with LeBron James and new teammates Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving was going to be easy, but it’s gotten harder for the hometown king and his squad. Without feeding the ball to Love much and their defense looking abysmal, LBJ has had to carry the team more than he’s expected.
After a 110-93 loss Saturday to the Toronto Raptors, King James was asked about his team’s struggles on the court and why Lou Williams had such an impact in their match.
“We’re a very fragile team right now. We were a fragile team from the beginning. Any little adversity that hits us, we just shell up. This is not even the lowest it’s going to get for us. I told a few guys the lowest it can get is being up 17 in the fourth quarter in Game 2 of the Finals and losing.”
The microscope is getting bigger on the Cavs and things don’t seem to be looking better. They currently sit at a 5-7 record and if things don’t turn around soon, that losing streak might continue into the double digits.
