I am sure they Cavs aren’t the only team to do this, but when you have LeBron James on your team it will raise an eyebrow or two.
It isn’t just the casinos that are agape at how this is playing out — the Cavs were 4-15 in their past 19 games against the spread coming in to Tuesday — so are league scouts, executives and rival players.
They see players appearing to run different plays than the bench calls and hear Cavs players openly talking about coaching issues with opposing players and personnel. Not once, not twice, but frequently over the past several months.
Cavs still have time to turn it around, but not looking good at least for this season.
