CLEVELAND, Feb. 9 (UPI) -- Lebron James acknowledged that a tweet he sent Saturday was in fact a subtweet to fellow Cavs player Kevin Love after having problems with him on the court.

James tweeted that people should try to fit in rather than "fit out" -- a reference to a previous statement from Love about how he works on the team.

"I'm comfortable and just not trying to, I guess, fit in so much," Love said. "I had a talk with the guys on the plane ride over [to Brazil] and also at different practices off the floor, and they told me to fit out, just be myself."

James told a small group of reporters his tweet was no coincidence.

This is after he tried to convince reporters it was just a general thought that people " try to encrypt it and 'Da Vinci Code' it and all that stuff."

The reaction to Love's comments is suspected to stem from tension after Love's second five-point outing in the span of three games in a loss to Indiana on Friday.

Love has re-signed with the Cavs and has denied rumors he might move to another team.
