Apparently the sartorial synchronicity was orchestrated by one LeBron James. The suits, designed by Thom Browne, were a gift from James to his teammates, according to ESPN's Lisa Salters.
Nor was this a spur-of-the-moment gift. According to ESPN's Dave McMenamin, the Cavs were fitted by tailors "weeks ago," and packed their suits for the trip to Indianapolis.
James' supporting cast has struggled in the postseason so far, and after securing a split in Cleveland, the Pacers have given the Cavs some cause for concern. Maybe James' magnanimity will help snap his teammates out of their funk.
