Celtics-Cavaliers Preview
The Cleveland Cavaliers' season ended in bitter disappointment when the  Boston Celtics knocked them out of the playoffs in May. That setback  paled in comparison to the blow absorbed two months later when LeBron  James made "The Decision" to leave his home state to join Miami.The  Cavaliers are no longer one of the league's marquee teams and may be  hard-pressed to even make the playoffs as they begin to pick up the  pieces following the departure of James in their season opener Wednesday  night at home against the Celtics.
The date of July 8, 2010, will forever be remembered in Cleveland (0-0)  after James -- an Akron native who became an iconic figure in Ohio after  being drafted first overall by the Cavaliers in 2003 -- used a  nationally-televised, prime-time special to utter the infamous words  that he was "taking his talents to South Beach" to try to earn his first  NBA title with the Heat.The loss of James capped a tumultuous offseason  in which popular coach Mike Brown was fired and general manager Danny  Ferry opted to leave the organization.
The moves were thought to be orchestrated by owner Dan Gilbert in an  effort to re-sign James. Gilbert was rebuffed by Michigan State coach  Tom Izzo, and eventually hired former Nets and Hornets coach Byron Scott  on July 2.When the two-time MVP departed six days later, Gilbert lashed  out in an open letter to Cavaliers fans, guaranteeing that Cleveland  will win a championship before "the self-titled former 'king' wins one."  A local radio host hired a witch doctor Tuesday to try to jinx James  and his attempt to win a title elsewhere.Cleveland won the most games in  the NBA the previous two seasons (127), but never reached the stated  goal of winning the franchise's first title. The expectations are far  lower now.
"I love the underdog theory," Scott said. "Being a guy who came in and  was put in the same situation, I can relate to it. I know it's a very  motivating factor for a lot of players."As much as possible, I'm going  to keep bringing it up. I don't want them to forget what people are  saying and writing about them. If that's the thing to keep them  motivated and playing at a high level, I'll say it every single  day."There are solid players left for Scott, albeit no superstars.  Former All-Stars Mo Williams and Antawn Jamison join center Anderson  Varejao and improving third-year forward J.J. Hickson to form the core.
Williams -- the leading returning scorer at 15.8 points per game -- is  questionable for the opener after missing most of the preseason with a  groin injury."So yes, it was a time where I felt their same pain," said  Williams about losing James. "But at the same time, when you get here  and get around this organization and the new team and Byron and the new  coaches, you feel excited."A less notable departure for Cleveland was  the loss of Shaquille O'Neal to Boston (1-0). The declining 38-year-old  center had a minimal impact in his lone season with the Cavaliers in  2009-10, and signed a two-year offseason deal with the Celtics.
O'Neal and Boston got the NBA's first look at James in an 88-80 victory  over Miami in the ballyhooed league season opener Tuesday. While James  scored 31 points, the Celtics held Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh to a  combined 21 and limited the Heat to 36.5 percent shooting.Rajon Rondo,  who averaged 20.7 points and 11.8 assists in last season's playoff  series against the Cavaliers, handed out 17 assists. Ray Allen scored 20  points, and O'Neal was limited to nine and seven boards in 18  foul-plagued minutes in his Celtics debut.
