PHOENIX - After a two-week absence, LeBron James was back in the Cleveland lineup when the Cavaliers met the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night.
Andrea Barzagli Jersey .The four-time MVP had taken time off to rest his sore left knee and lower back.Obviously were happy to
have him back, Cavaliers coach David Blatt said before the game. Hes a very big
part of our team, a dominant player in the NBA. I would just caution to be fair
with him, he hasnt played competitive basketball for eight games, and thats not
a normal thing for LeBron.Cleveland went 1-7 in James absence and had lost five
in a row going into the game against the Suns. The Cavaliers fell to 19-19 and
are sixth in the Eastern Conference.James practiced with the team on Monday,
then made a quick trip to Texas to cheer on Ohio State in the college football
national championship game. He said he got back to Phoenix at 12:30 a.m.Monday
was the first time he had practiced since his layoff.At the morning shootaround,
James said he felt a little sore, a little tight, which I figured.I havent done
no basketball as far as live drills in two weeks, he said, so my bodys a little
sore but not hurting.James said that sitting and watching the Cavaliers struggle
was the most difficult thing Ive gone through.The team was six games above .500
when he shut it down.Weve got to approach every game with a sense of urgency,
James said. I hated the fact we were playing some pretty decent ball when I went
out. We lost a lot of games while I was out.Blatt said he wanted to limit James
Tuesday night in the low 30-minute range if that.Im sure like any other human
being it will take him a little bit of time to find his normal rhythm, Blatt
said, but I know hell go out there and give us everything hes got.Veteran
forward Shawn Marion also returned for the Cavaliers after missing two games
with a left hip strain.It was the first time that James played with recently
acquired guard J.R. Smith and centre Timofey Mozgov.Were still kind of in a
flux, Blatt said, but its a heck of a lot better having those guys (James and
Marion) out there.
Roberto Pereyra Jersey . But Paul Osbaldiston, Hamiltons assistant special teams and kicking coach, said the team
still relished the championship game workout.
Paulo Dybala Juventus Jersey . It was the most lopsided loss in Lakers history. Darren Collison had a team-high 24 points
while starting at shooting guard for the injured Jamal Crawford. Chris Paul
added 13 points and 11 assists for the Clippers, who apparently are trying to
make up for decades of humiliation at the hands of the Lakers all in one season;
theyve won the last two meetings by a combined 84 points.The future of domestic
