As expected, Cleveland (1-2) is searching for an identity in the post-James era. The Cavaliers pulled off a surprising 95-87 win over Boston in the opener but struggled after halftime in losing their last two.
One night after being outscored 31-17 in the third quarter of a loss at Toronto, Cleveland blew a 14-point halftime lead by getting outscored 31-15 in the third and lost 107-104 to Sacramento.
“The third quarter has been terrible for us,” coach Byron Scott said. “Having a 14-point lead, I thought we took a big exhale instead of coming out with the other attitude of going up by 20.
“We have a lot to learn about ourselves as a basketball team. It’s going to take some time.”
Scott hopes having Williams back on the court will provide leadership and offense to help his team get on track.
Williams, an All-Star in 2009, was sidelined for much of training camp and the exhibition season with a groin injury. He was second on the Cavs behind James last season with 15.8 points and 5.3 assists pergame.
Cavaliers forward Antawn Jamison did not practice Monday because of soreness in his left knee and could miss Tuesday’s game. Jamison has come off the bench and is averaging 6.3 points.
The Cavaliers went 3-1 against Atlanta in 2009-10 with the loss coming in the regular-season finale. James and Williams both sat out thatgame for Cleveland, while Johnson, Crawford, Mike Bibby, Al Horford and Josh Smith rested for the Hawks, who snapped a five-game losing streak in the series.
