LeBron James to sit against Pacers...again
For the third consecutive season, LeBron James will not play a game at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, instead taking a night off to rest.
As mentioned on the Locked on Podcast, the schedule set up perfectly for a rest day for LeBron as the Cavs are on a back-to-back and in the midst of playing four games in six days and three games in four days against some top contenders in the Eastern Conference.
After lining up the competition, the Pacers are the least threatening team, plus LeBron played 38 minutes while trying to earn a W over the Toronto Raptors last night. The rest makes sense from a big picture view for the Cavs.
