Cavs must have LeBron at full power
2006-12-16 15:47:04
The only time LeBron James went to the rim in the fourth quarter Monday night, both he and Tyson Chandler, who was defending the air up there, met in a vicious collision that left both sprawled on the floor, dazed.It was ruled no foul, in one of the most abject abdications of refereeing responsibility since the squadron of blind mice who worked the Pittsburgh-Seattle Super Bowl.Chandler was giving James, who didn't score in the fourth quarter, a tutorial in the school of hard knocks. A player expects a reward from the refs for attacking the rim. He doesn't expect the back of the hand.James had only 15 points and shot only one free throw in Oklahoma City Monday. It was another game the Cavs had no business losing, but did. Three Hornet starters were out with injuries.James says that he likes contact and that he loved football as an all-state wide receiver in high school more than basketball. Last year, he led the NBA in "and one's," the smash-fest that is also called "three the ol...

LeBron, get thee up to the basket
2006-12-09 15:43:05
CLEVELAND - It is a cliched plea, a call heard by basketball stars for decades and a common fix-it for broken offenses.It has reached that status because it usually is both simple and effective. It is the issue facing LeBron James right now.With the Cavaliers undergoing some turbulence -- four losses in six games to be exact, largely because of offensive deficiencies -- there is a call to action for the resident superstar. It goes like this: "Go to the basket more.''Easier commanded than achieved, of course, but the technical and artistic data show the Cavs simply get better on offense the more James attacks the glass and get worse when he doesn't.Compared with last season, when James had one of the most prolific offensive years in franchise history, he isn't getting to the basket as much. According to data provided by stats Web site 82games.com, a higher percentage of James' shots this season are jump shots, and he's shooting 5 percentage points lower (37 percent) than last s...

LeBron helps rookies on court
2006-12-02 15:38:06
When LeBron James speaks, the Cavaliers understandably listen.That's true even on small levels, such as last week, when he questioned why the Cavs would debut their orange throwback jerseys on the road. Within 24 hours, the Cavs were on the phone with the NBA office getting permission to wear the throwbacks for the next home game. Those are minor details; just think of James' influence on the major ones.James has been dropping hints publicly -- and making statements privately, according to team insiders -- that he'd like to have more court time with rookies Shannon Brown and Daniel Gibson. Especially Gibson.In the past week, coach Mike Brown has increased the rookies' playing time. Just a few hours after James suggested following the loss to the Indiana Pacers that there should be lineup changes, Shannon Brown was in the starting lineup in place of David Wesley. Also, coach Mike Brown is beginning to give Gibson meaningful minutes off the bench in place of Wesley and Eric Snow."...

LeBron James COMPLETE biography
2006-12-02 15:38:06
LeBron James was born on December 30, 1984, in Akron, Ohio. His mother, Gloria James, was only 16 at the time. His biological father, Anthony McClelland, was an ex-con uninterested in being a parent. Gloria raised LeBron on her own, and to this day he goes by her last name.Life was often a struggle for LeBron and his mother. Gloria battled personal problems during much of his childhood. Some of those were brought on by the death of her mother, who passed away when LeBron was an infant. Bouncing between retail and accounting jobs, Gloria was never able to land steady work, and she and LeBron moved from apartment to apartment. The pair got to know all the seedier neighborhoods of Akron, a city of more than 200,000 located less than a hour south of Cleveland.Despite her failings, Gloria worked hard to be a loving mother and shield LeBron from the poverty and violence of the streets. This was no easy chore, and at times made her choice of boyfriends seem puzzling. When LeBron was two, s...

Timberwolves vs. Lebron
2006-12-02 15:38:06
Guarding LeBron James is a challenge perhaps unlike any other in basketball. He has a unique blend of size, strength, speed, shooting ability and passing skills.So, how exactly will the Timber wolves try to stop, er, contain James in tonight's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers? Timberwolves assistant coach Bob Ociepka, who focuses on defense, broke down the game plan and provided insight into trying to slow perhaps the world's best player.Ociepka previously was an assistant with the Milwaukee Bucks, who are in the same division as James' Cavaliers. Here are Ociepka's keys to stopping James:1. Break him down"When he's out in transition, he's impossible to stop. You have to get back on defense. It can't be just the guy guarding him. It can't be just Trenton (Hassell, the Wolves ' defensive specialist), it's got to be people behind him to help Trenton. If LeBron does get out in transition, make him give up the ball if you can. Take away those coast-to-coast drives to the bas...

LeBron giving food
2006-12-02 15:38:06
Akron native, Cleveland Cavalier and NBA All-Star LeBron James continues to give back to his hometown and other communities.James -- through his nonprofit James Family Foundation -- is again assisting families in need over the Thanksgiving holiday in four Ohio cities -- Akron, Cleveland, Columbus and Youngstown -- and Biloxi, Miss.James will donate more than 2,500 turkeys and other groceries Friday through Monday.The James Family Foundation, which is headed by James' mother, Gloria James, will distribute vouchers for the Thanksgiving giveaways through community partners in each city.``Everyone should be able to share a special holiday meal with their loved ones,'' said Gloria James. ``My family has been very blessed, and we want to share with less fortunate families.''In Akron, vouchers are available at the Akron Urban League (330-434-3101) or Stewart & Calhoun Funeral Home (330-535-1543). Those with vouchers will get their food at Henry's Acme, 1525 Plaza Blvd., Akron.In addi...

Cavs vs. Hawks
2006-12-02 15:38:06
LeBron James got another taste of the latter Tuesday as his actions in the final moments of the Cavaliers' overtime loss to the Atlanta Hawk s were called into question. After he missed a 3-point attempt with about 15 seconds to go and the Cavs down nine points, James slowly walked off the court and toward the locker room while the Hawks dribbled out the clock at the other end of the floor. He eventually turned around and stood at the end of the floor when the final horn went off.Though his actions didn't seem egregious to those in attendance, they were mentioned by the Hawks' radio network and later picked up by various national radio stations. By Wednesday afternoon, it had been filtered into various ESPN outlets and James was being compared to former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Randy Moss, who left the field before a game was over two years ago.``The game was over. It wasn't like I walked to the locker room,'' James said in response Wednesday. ``You're down seven points...

Seasons change for James
2006-12-02 15:38:06
Retaining franchise players in the NBA is never easy. Roster juggling is ongoing.The 12-man roster surrounding franchise player LeBron James when the Cavaliers open their season one week from tonight against the Washington Wizards will be decidedly different than the one that complemented James when he began his NBA career 36 months ago in Sacramento.The lone survivor from that roster is 7-3 center Zydrunas Ilgauskas. Little-used reserve forward Ira Newble was on the injured list when James burst onto the NBA scene with 25 points, nine assists, six rebounds and four steals in a 106-92 loss to the Kings.The starters in Sacramento: James, Ilgauskas, Ricky Davis, Carlos Boozer and Darius Miles. The reserves: J.R. Bremer, Kevin Ollie, DeSagana Diop, Chris Mihm, Michael Stewart, Jason Kapono and Jelani McCoy."We were completely dominated my rookie year," James said.Maybe so, but the Cavaliers went from a 17-55 record in 2002-03 to 35-47 in James' rookie season.James, Ilgauskas, Drew Goo...

After Rochester
2006-12-02 15:38:06
The fans who bought tickets in Roche ster wanted to see LeBron James. But they didn't. Despite chants of "We want LeBron!," Cleveland coach Mike Brown nailed his James to the bench, even though he wasn't hurt.Today, Brown and James are Public Enemies No.1 and No. 2 in western New York. And they shouldn't be.The NBA should take the blame.It's a given that head coaches will not play their star players in every pre-season game. The idea of pre-season is to give the organization an idea of what they have, and where everyone will eventually play. It used to be that the pre-season schedule in every professional sport was also about getting the players in top shape for the regular season. But no more. Players spend much of the off-season training hard and are generally close to game shape by the time the regular season begins. Given that, the last thing a coach wants is to burn out his best players before the regular season.The NBA has to know this, and when they give the green light to...

LeBron sits in Rochester
2006-12-02 15:38:06
LeBron James received a loud ovation when he sauntered toward the Cleveland Cavaliers bench at Blue Cross Arena just before the start of Wednesday night's NBA exhibition game against the Toronto Raptors. The royal treatment of King James didn't last long... Booos filled the field when he was left out of the game. Angry spectators shouted:"LeBron is overrated!""We like Melo better!""LeBron isn't worthy of the no.23!"LeBron responded: "I got to focus on my health right now and how I feel. I can't worry about, you know, how this guy is looking forward to seeing me play or anything like that."Cavs general manager Danny Ferry said he and coach Mike Brown made the decision not to play LeBron here against Toronto because they didn't want to use him in back-to-back exhibitions. It's obvious Cleveland's precocious hoops legend was needed more in that 41-point romp against Maccabi Elite Tel Aviv than in the 103-81 loss here against the Raptors.
