Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love guard Dwyane Wade and forward Le Bron James
The Cavaliers, right now, are a complete mess. Maybe just the shakeup will at least get the Cavaliers to focus and hustle on defense, something that has been lacking for a while - Thompson is a strong defender, and while that's Crowder's reputation he has struggled this season. Marcus Smart missed a three-point try at the buzzer.
"Just stepping out of bounds, throwing the ball away", center/forward Kevin Love told reporters after the 114-102 loss in San Antonio on January 23.
It seems like Isiah Thomas and others are thinking of this team as a modern version of the 2007-08 Lakers, who got Pau Gasol at the deadline and won a title a few months later.
Don't take this the wrong way, LeBron James is an fantastic player, and a major reason the Cavaliers have been so good since his return. "We've been to three straight Finals".
According to ESPN's Dave McMenamin, Cleveland head coach Tyronn Lue chose to make a change with his starters after losing to the San Antonio Spurs 114-102 on Tuesday, their sixth loss in seven games.
The Cavs' current starting lineup of LeBron James, Kevin Love, J.R. Smith, Isaiah Thomas and Jae Crowder has a minus-22.8 rating - which means it's being outscored by that many points on average per 100 possessions.
A team meeting was recently held, and Love was reportedly targeted over an injury that is keeping him sidelined.
The Cavs have lost 10 of 13 games and are porous defensively.

"I felt good", said Murray, who learned before Sunday's game against IN that he would replace Tony Parker as the starter at the point.
Since officially debuting for Cleveland last week, Thomas is slowly being put up to speed, averaging 15.9 points and 3.4 assists on just 39% shooting so far.
"(Murray) was great", said LaMarcus Aldridge, who had 30 points for San Antonio after being selected as an All-Star reserve earlier in the day. That's a reflection of being the oldest team in the league.
"I'll tell you the No. 1 reason why LeBron ain't gonna capitulate to anything that Dan Gilbert wants to do - because what Dan Gilbert wants to do, from what I'm being told, is sell the team", Smith said. He said, 'Whatever's best for the team, I'm all in.' I just think starting Tristan helps our team in the pick and roll.
According to a report from top National Basketball Association reporter Adrian Wojnarowski, multiple players accused Love of faking the illness that forced him to leave Saturday's loss to Oklahoma City early.
This team isn't right, and something needs to be done. "That will help us out a lot".
"I'm numb to it at this point", Love said.
Thomas' former teammates in Boston disagreed with Broussard's report. "When teams are committing two to him, he has to be a willing passer, and I thought (Wednesday night) he did that".
