Everybody has a choice. I'm not saying everybody doesn't have a choice. But when I saw he chose to stay in Oklahoma, I was so proud."

LeBron James says the Cleveland Cavaliers need a rim protector

Asked at Sunday's shootaround about the league-wide trend toward smaller lineups — exemplified by Cleveland's recent trade for a sharpshooter like Kyle Korver and active search for a backup point guard two years after so desperately dealing for Mozgov — James said of the lack of discussion about a replacement rim protector, "It's a point of conversation; it's just that you guys didn't get it. You guys can't know everything. It's almost like the Spurs aren't talked about, but we all know they exist and we all know how great they are, so some things that are known don't need to be discussed all the time. So, will the Cavaliers trade for a big man? "I don't know if we can find one," added James, "but we'll see what happens."
