As we can see on the picture, the new shirt shows, in the bottom, a sentence with the DNA of the new cavs: "All for one. One for all".
The new uniform will see the light on the first game of the season, where the cavs will face Phill Jackons' Knicks. Moreover, this shirt will be the alternate one throughout the season.

"I haven't spoke to Lebron since he left Miami", convincingly declares Chris Bosh when he was asked about Lebron James. A comment that caused a great impact on the media, since everyone knew about the friendship between them.
The player is extra motivated in his 5th season with Florida's franchise and he sentenced: "I'm in the mode where I'm trying to lead my team, help these guys out around here. If guys aren't in this locker room, I don't have much time for them -- if any.".
However, Bosh wont need to wait until the season begins to be reunited with Lebron James, as this saturday he will meet his former teammate at Rio de Janeiro, where Heat and Cavaliers will play a friendly match.

"No he vuelto a hablar con LeBron desde que se fue", así de contundente se mostró Chris Bosh al ser preguntado por Lebron James. Un comentario que causó gran impacto, ya que de sobra era conocida su amistad con el de Akron.
El jugador parece estar extra motivado en su quinta temporada con los de Florida y sentenció: "No tengo mucho tiempo para quien no esté en este vestuario. Sólo estoy centrado en intentar liderar a mi equipo y ayudar a los chicos de mi alrededor".
Sin embargo, Bosh no tendrá que esperar al comienzo de la temporada para reencontrarse con Lebron, ya que este sábado se tendrá que ver las caras con su ex compañero en el amistoso que disputaran sus equipos en Río de Janeiro.

It has not been the farewell that neither Nikola Mirotic nor Real Madrid fans would have desired. The second loss in the Euroleague final and the fact that he was not in great shape in the most important moment of the season have overshadowed his last day in the team.

Some skeptics doubt about his capacity of becoming someone important in the best basketball teams. They claim that he is too short and not strong enough to play in the post and even too slow to play in the perimeter. However, we are in front of a very technical player, capable of scoring using post moves or facing the basket thanks to his notable shooting range.
It will not be an easy year for Mirotic. Apart from the understandable adaptation difficulties, he will have to compete against his teammates in order to achieve minutes on the court. It seems that players like Taj Gibson or Jimmy Butler have advantage over him.
Despite these all difficulties, he will receive the help of Pau Gasol who will be a great support for him.

No ha
sido la despedida que Nikola Mirotic ni los aficionados del Real Madrid
esperaban. La segunda derrota consecutiva en una final de Euroliga y el bajo
estado de forma con el que llegaba al momento más importante de la temporada
oscurecían sus últimos días en el equipo merengue.

Muchos
son los escépticos que dudan de su capacidad para hacerse un nombre en la mejor
liga del mundo. Demasiado bajo y débil para posiciones interiores y poco rápido para jugar en el perímetro. Sin
embargo, estamos ante un jugador de una gran técnica, capaz de anotar de
espaldas al aro, gracias a su buen juego de pies o de cara a él destacando su tiro
a media y larga distancia. Mirotic
no lo tendrá fácil en su primer año en la liga.
A las lógicas dificultades de adaptación a un nuevo estilo de juego y de
vida habría que añadir también la notable competencia que encontrará en sus
compañeros a la hora de conseguir minutos de juego. A priori, jugadores como
Taj Gibson , en posiciones interiores, o Jimmy Butler, en posiciones
exteriores, parten con ventaja en la rotación.

Pese
a todas estas posibles adversidades en su primer año, contará con la
ayuda de Pau Gasol. El hispano-montenegrino tendrá en el ex jugador de Los
Ángeles Lakers un espejo en el que mirarse y un apoyo para los momentos en los
que las críticas y dudas aparezcan.

His mother, Megan, could not hide her feelings and stated: ‘He loves sports, but basketball is his favorite one. He was just one when he watched the matches with my husband Josh. He shot for an hour before going to sleep whe he was just 15-months-old. He knows that he must be six in order to play in Jazz Junior teams, and he is always saying that he cannot wait all that time.’
It was his turn after the interview with the press. He would wear the same jersey that legends of this sport such as Karl Malone or John Stockton had used years before. In the third quarter, with 29 seconds left, the speaker announced the entrance of the franchise’s new acquisition.

Once again the NBA shows that is the best league in the world, not only at a sportive scale but also at a human level. A few months ago, the 76ers surprised everyone offering a signing to a young boy of 18 years old with Down Syndrome. Yesterday it was the Jazz, and nobody knows what will happen in a future.
‘Where amazing happens” is the slogan of the league. It involves the sportive and extra sportive thing. It can be found under this motto, some stories as humane as JP Gibson’s.
