The Cavs met as a team and general manager David Griffin addressed LeBron James personally Wednesday to discuss James’ myriad assertions about the roster after Monday’s loss to New Orleans.

“We’re going to handle it internal,” (Cavs’ coach Tyronn) Lue said. “We’re not going to put out everything that was said, but we addressed LeBron. We talked to him and he understands, he understood and now we’re going to move on.”

“The comment about the organization being complacent I think is really misguided,” Griffin said.

Griffin said he hadn’t spoken to majority owner Dan Gilbert about James’ comments, but the team’s executives were clearly irked. “It certainly wasn’t appropriate from a teammate perspective,” Griffin said.
