The Cavaliers arrived late for the first half. In the second half, they barely showed up at all.

In a game delayed by 30 minutes due to a malfunction of their team plane, the Cavs lost 98-86 to New Jersey last night in a preseason game at Xavier University's Cintas Center.

Andre Miller led the Cavs with 15 points and had 13 assists. Nets guard Kerry Kittles had a game-high 19 points in 20 minutes.
