WASHINGTON - LeBron James lost the battle for an offensive rebound and stewed in frustration while everyone else ran downcourt, leaving his Cleveland Cavaliers teammates to defend 4-on-5 at the other end while the game was still in the balance in the fourth quarter.The Cavaliers went the final 9 minutes without scoring a field goal in Friday nights 91-78 loss to the Washington Wizards, a third consecutive loss and one that puts James under .500 more than 10 games into a season for the first time in six years.Looking for reasons? Start with lack of hustle, lack of teamwork. James was slow to get back more than once in that fourth quarter, something he conceded is never a good example for a team leader. Asked about his teams body language, he said flatly: Its not good.Its something weve got to work on. We understand that. It starts with me, for sure. Its something Ill always work on, too, James said. It trickles down to everyone else.Coach David Blatt was just as blunt. He cited irresponsible play and bad decisions for some of his teams 19 turnovers.Were a little bit in the dark, Blatt said, and weve got to find our way out.John Wall took over in the third quarter and finished with 28 points, seven assists and six rebounds for the hustling Wizards, who have won four of five. Resuming a rivalry that peaked last decade when Washington and James Cavaliers met three consecutive years in the playoffs — it was so intense that both Jay-Z and Soulja Boy got involved — the Wizards eagerly pounced on their old nemesis, grabbing a majority of the 50-50 balls and capitalizing on the defensive woes that have led to Clevelands surprisingly mediocre start.I feel like its a statement, Wall said, because we lost at Toronto pretty badly, Dallas we feel like we let that game go away, and we havent beat a big-name team (as) everybody says, so this game is pretty big.James scored 22 points on 8-for-21 shooting, but the Cavaliers shot 36 per cent, scored a season-low in points and looked flat-footed as they fell to 5-6.There were a lot of balls on the floor, Blatt said, Especially when youre struggling — I dont want to say youve got to kill yourself, but you have to do whatever it takes to get balls like that to gain a little bit of ground, and we did not.FAME GAMEThere was no big-time rapper performing at this game — unless that counts James rapping with headphones on at his locker before the game — but NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey were among the see-and-be-seen crowd at the Wizards first sellout of the season.WALLS SURGEWall scored 17 points in the third quarter, responding after the Wizards hit a rare lull. Washington had a 55-42 halftime lead shrunk to 60-53, but the 2010 No. 1 overall draft pick then began to assert himself at both ends.I told him, man, when he gets going, he has to just keep going, teammate Bradley Beal said. He cant stop.TIP-INSCavaliers: Kyrie Irving went 0 for 6 from 3-point range, and the team went 6 for 27. ... Kevin Love scored a season-low eight points and was targeted by the Wizards at the other end. For sure, we went straight up at him, said Washington forward Kevin Seraphin, who scored all of his 12 points mostly with hook shots in the second quarter. Coach directly called for me and Nene, and we just keep going at him.Wizards: Cleveland got the better of Washington in all three of their first-round series meetings from 2006-08. Soulja Boy performed live at Game 3 in the 2008 series. On Friday, Washington played one of his songs during a fourth-quarter timeout. ... Coach Randy Wittman got a technical in the third quarter for arguing a charging call on Nene.UP NEXTCavaliers: Host Toronto on Saturday.Wizards: At Milwaukee on Saturday.___Follow Joseph White on Twitter: http://twitter.com/JGWhiteAPSolomon Hill Jersey .

The veteran fighter will be squaring off with Henderson in a five-round lightweight bout as part of another network televised card at the United Center on Saturday night. Wholesale Pelicans Jerseys . -- Creighton apparently has Villanovas number.If Sundays incredible 19-inning victory over the Detroit Tigers at Rogers Centre wasnt enough to convince the parent company Rogers to add some key pieces for the stretch run, nothing will. With 43 games remaining in the season, John Gibbons and company are five games back of the Baltimore Orioles in the East and are tied with the Seattle Mariners a game-and-a-half back of the Kansas City Royals for the second American League Wild Card slot as they get set to begin an eight-game road swing starting Monday night against Felix Hernandez and the Mariners. Hall-of-Famer Bob Elliot dropped a little nugget about midway through his "Bobs your uncle" column on Sunday. He claimed Rogers had relented in its tight-fisted policy and could allow GM Alex Anthopoulos to add a $10 million contract this week. To take it a little further, I went over the roster of every team, player by player, to pinpoint those making $10 million who might be available. Let me tell you there arent very many. In fact, I could only find one player making exactly $10 million who might help the Jays in Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jay Bruce. The thing of it is, the Reds are still very much in the race in the NL Central and for a Wild Card berth. Reds right-hander Homer Bailey is making $9 million on a long-term deal and, while Cincy is still in contention, moving him doesnt make any sense either. The Minnesota Twins have right-hander Phil Hughes at $8 million and outfielder Josh Willingham at $7 million. Hughes, the former New York Yankee, is having a solid year for a bad team. Hes the kind of pitcher the Twins should be building around, not trading. The Houston Astros might move right-hander Scott Feldman, whos making $12 million and has two years still left on his deal, but hes not much of an upgrade on what they already have. Chicago Cubs right-hander Edwin Jackson has a durable arm, but for his so-so production is over-priced at $13 million per season. Former Jays outfielder and current Texas Ranger Alex Rios is a possibility. Hes making $13.5 million and can play right field or centre, but his power has diminished with age and he only has four home runs this season. New York Mets right-hander Bartolo Colon fits the bill at $9 million per season and he just won his 200th game, but he is 41-years-old and is under contract for next season. The Colorado Rockies have three possibilities in veteran lefty Jorge De La Rosa, first baseman/designated hitter Justiin Morneau and left fielder Carlos Gonzalez.dddddddddddd Gonzalez is making $11 million, but you can scratch him, since he just went on the DL withtendonitis in his left knee and a right anke sprain. He could be shut down for the season. Morneaus bat would help and the Canadian-born left-hand hitter is only making $5 million, but when Adam Lind, who could be back as soon as Monday, and Edwin Encarncion return, it would be hard to see him getting enough at bats. De La Rosa would give the rotation a boost, but its difficult to see him passing through waivers in the National League without being claimed. There are at least four or five clubs in the Senior Circuit that could use pitching help. In my mind, that pretty well narrows the list down to one man - former Blue Jays second baseman Aaron Hill, whos making $11 million for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Hill is 32-years-old and is also under contract for the next two years at $12 million per season. With Brett Lawrie gone for three-to-six weeks and Ryan Goins sent back to Buffalo again, Hill would give the Jays some veteran stability at the keystone. Then, maybe for the short term good of the team, John Gibbons could convince Jose Bautista to move back to third base. Well see what happens as the week unfolds. - Cubs budding 2B prospect Javier Baez created quite a stir when he homered three times in his first three Major League games. The last time that happened was 60 years ago when Joe Cunningham turned the trick for the St. Louis Cardinals. Cunningham went on to have a decent career with the Cards, the Chicago White Sox and the Washington Senators. Though he hit .291 over his 12 seasons in the Show, he never became a prodigious home run hitter. He hit 64 homers in total - The Blue Jays may be lacking in developing position players, but their pitching pipeline is definately alive and well. In addition to Drew Hutchison, Aaron Sanchez and Marcus Stroman on the big club, 21-year-old lefty Daniel Norris is starting to look like something special at Buffalo. After going 9-1 at Double-A New Hampshire with a 2.38 ERA, Norris was spectacular in his Triple-A debut. He struck out a career high of 10 on Sunday at Durham over six innings, giving up just two hits in a 3-0 victory in the opener of a double-header. It would be great to see those 4four leading the Blue Jays rotation for the next six or seven years, but the reality is at least one will probably be dealt to fill another hole.
