Tensions boiled over for the Cleveland Cavaliers after allowing 148 points to the Oklahoma City Thunder on national television last weekend.
The team held a meeting Monday, in which players and coaches alike were allowed to air their grievances.
A number of issues were raised, but one sticking point was that some Cavaliers questioned Kevin Love for missing all but three minutes of Saturday's game with a migraine.
As it turns out, it was Isaiah Thomas who raised the point about Love, a source told Frank Isola of the New York Daily News. It's a shocking development given that Thomas and Love go way back to their days playing high school basketball in Washington.

Love admitted to reporters on Tuesday that he was a target, but added that everyone caught flack in the meeting.
"Did I feel like a target? I think everybody, most people, were a target," Love said during shootaround Tuesday. "We're trying to figure this thing out. People hold themselves to a very high standard on this team and we're a team that can compete at the highest level."
