After openly suggesting the Cavs change their style of play Monday, a day of reflection had LeBron James humming a little different tune Tuesday. Now, he said, making a change midseason might not be the best idea.

``Right now, we're not trying to switch anything, just trying to get better at what we're doing and what we've been doing most of the year,'' James said. ``You can always make a little change, but you don't want to scratch everything away. You have to pick and choose what you want to change.''

For the first time in his pro career, LeBron James has been struggling. Yes, a year ago he was criticized for not making big plays at the end of the game for the Cavaliers -- which changed in the final few months and the playoffs, when James emerged as a clutch player. But what's happening now is different. He can't get to the basket with his usual ease. He has missed power layups, free throws have been a recent nightmare, and several in the national media have said his game has regressed greatly.
