LeBron James fell two assists shy of a triple-double but still couldn’t lead the Cavs past the Toronto Raptors as they lost 95-87. The Raptors improve to just 3-8 on the season and the Cavs fall to 0-3 on the second night of back to backs. They looked sluggish early and the Raptors shot the lights out in the first quarter. The Cavs battled back and led going into the fourth quarter before falling apart in the final period. Chris Bosh was a menace for the Raptors scoring 25 points and adding 14 rebounds.
For the second night in a row the team has not looked very sharp. Lately they have had trouble putting together a full 48 minutes and have often looked out of sync at times.
I like seeing Gibson on the floor, but where is Shannon Brown?
Also, I like what I’m seeing from Damon Jones. He’s becoming the shooting threat that we paid for.
