cavaliers

The Cavaliers blew out the Knicks on Wednesday, and by the end of the fourth quarter LeBron and company had pretty much lost interest in the game.

Instead of watching their teammates close out a win over the Knicks, Cleveland’s starters flipped water bottles, in an attempt to live up to the legacy of that dude from the high-school talent show. Yeahhhh, the Cavs showed so much respect for the Knicks they treated the fourth quarter like a high school talent show.

For guys who supposedly possess world-class hand-eye coordination and excel at tossing objects with perfect precision, the Cavs sure are bad at flipping water bottles. Kyrie seemed to almost get it, but LeBron’s throw was totally errant. No wonder The King is shooting only 35 percent from 3-point range this season.

It’s quite a sight to see one of the best athletes of all-time diving all-out on the floor for a plastic water bottle. Only against the Knicks.
