Richard Jefferson Reveals Cavs Partied Hard Night Before 2016 Win over Knicks

Back on Dec. 7, 2016, LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers made headlines for participating in the water bottle challenge during a game against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden.

As it turns out, the then-defending champs never took that game seriously...and still won by 32 points.

On Thursday, a fan called the Cavs' in-game bottle-flipping "one of most disrespectful moments" in NBA history. Former Cavalier Richard Jefferson saw that tweet and decided to let it be known that he and his teammates were never worried about the Knicks:
