DENVER - LeBron James sat at one end of the court, listening to music. On the other end, about as far away from James as possible, Kyrie Irving leaned back in his seat.Quite a distance between the Cleveland Cavaliers teammates.Means we hate each other, Irving said Friday after the morning shootaround, hours before tipoff against Denver. He was only joking, of course.James shot down reports that he and his point guard got into a heated disagreement after the Portland game on Tuesday.We have not had a verbal exchange, said James, whose team has dropped two straight road games. But I understand that negativity sells. No one wants to hear a good story. Those reports are not true. Theyre very false.Irving had some fun with their reported rift. He good-naturedly said the dispute with James was actually over which show is better: Survivors Remorse or Family Guy. Irving is a big fan of the animated series.Hes going to feel strong about Survivors Remorse, because its his show. I love Family Guy, Irving said. Heated exchange. Words were said. No blows this time.Unlike James, Irving has never really been through anything like this, where all eyes are constantly on him.We attract a lot of hoopla. Always something to blame, Irving said. The only thing that matters is whats going on within our locker room. Thats the only thing that matters.And fine-tuning on his on-court chemistry with James.Were two dynamic players and its coming along well, I believe, James said. Its going to continue to get better and better. Its just four games. Its our first time playing together. Every game is going to be a learned experience for both of us. Its not just me and Kyrie. Its myself and the rest of the guys, and Kyrie and the rest of the guys as well.To calm some of the angst over their sluggish start, James posted a message on his Twitter page Thursday: In the words of the great @AaronRodgers12 RELAX.James said that wasnt directed at anyone in particular, simply, how I was feeling at the time.Just a message for everyone to understand how important the process is, James added. Everyone wants overnight success. It just doesnt happen in team sports, when teams first come together.Two nights ago, Irving had 34 points in a last-second loss in Utah. He also had no assists, a stat hes well aware of, too.Its not like I wasnt passing the ball, Irving said. For me, its about finding ways to get guys the ball in right spots. Im going to do anything possible to win a ball game. I have the confidence from my teammates to go do that.In training camp, James intimated that if he had to challenge players, he wouldnt shy away. But he said he hasnt reached that point yet.Too early, James said. For our team to be as good as we want to be, we cant worry about whats going on on the outside. We have to control our own destiny and play hard and get a win.We cant shortcut the process along the way. Dawuane Smoot Jersey .

HALLE, Germany -- Rafael Nadal was knocked out in the second round of the grass-court Gerry Weber Open on Thursday, losing 6-4, 6-1 to German wild card Dustin Brown. "I didnt play," Nadal said. "That can happen when you play an opponent like this. But I dont want to talk about the opponent." Brown, the world No. 85, broke Nadals serve at the fifth attempt to win the first set, and he pulled off two audacious lobs in succession to break the Spaniard again early in the second. Nothing Nadal tried seemed to work in his first match since winning his ninth French Open title. He had a first-round bye at Halle, where he was the top seed. "The only way I could have tried to do more was resisting with my serve, something I hadnt practiced a lot these days," said Nadal, who was unnerved by Browns unpredictability. "For the first four games he didnt put any returns on the court and then suddenly he was playing winners from the return, so its difficult to analyze these kinds of matches. The only thing I can do is keep working the way that I did the last three days, because I came here, I tried hard, I tried my best." Brown became the lowest ranked player to beat a world No. 1 since 2008, when No. 98 Mardy Fish beat Roger Federer at Indian Wells. "I never played against a world No. 1 before, never played him before, soo this is just crazy for me," the player with the distinctive dreadlocks said.dddddddddddd Brown said it was too soon to consider he will face compatriot Philipp Kohlschreiber in the quarterfinals. "I havent thought about that at all yet. Im going to enjoy this," Brown said. Federer began his preparations for Wimbledon by coming from behind to beat Joao Sousa of Portugal 6-7 (8), 6-4, 6-2. Sousa saved all five break points he faced before taking the first set in a tiebreaker, but the second-seeded Federer raised his level in the next two sets to win the second-round match and move into the quarterfinals. "It was important to stay calm, and actually it gives me more confidence winning this way than maybe just 6-4, 6-4 and you dont quite know what is going on," said Federer, who acknowledged he was worried after losing the first set. It was the seven-time Wimbledon winners first match since losing in the fourth round at the French Open to Ernests Gulbis. He also had a first-round bye in Halle, where he is a six-time champion. He will next play Taiwans Lu Yen-hsun, who defeated Croatias Ivo Karlovic 7-6 (2), 7-6 (3). Steve Johnson is through to the quarterfinals after Teymuraz Gabashvili pulled out of their second-round match with a right knee injury. The American lined up fourth-seeded Kei Nishikori on Friday.
