Good win last night for the Cavs even tho LBJ had to do much of the damage on offense...
Bobbie came back down to earth shooting the ball as he actually missed some shots...
I would still like to see Shannon Brown get minutes over Ira Newble...

I prefer Ira Newble.
Both aren't going to get us points, and Newble is the better, more versatile defender.

and isn't going to try to shoot as much as Brown. Brown tries to do too much on offense when he is out there. Whether they say it or not when they declined Browns option they gave up on him. What's the point of giving him minutes since he'll walk at the end if the season? I say trade them both.

Andy is stupid if he sits out the whole year since the Cavs will still own him next year. He is already getting some really bad advice for not taking a 6 mil for 3 years type of deal like Gooden got. Nobody is going to pay him enough to make up for the 6 million that he is losing this season. If I were the Cavs I would make Cedric Simmons watch nothing but Varejao film and try to get him to fill Andy's shoes. Simmons is nearly the same dimensions as Andy, but he has a ton more athletic ability as shown by a couple of the rejections that he has had. I don't see Andy getting more than 7 mil a year if he was a FA and most of the teams don't have any salary cap space to spend more than 5 or 6 a year for a player.

I wish we could sign him just so we could trade him. He is a big part of this team, as a bench player but we have played without him before. Ced Simmons has a high ceiling and he is still recovering from an ankle injury. He could easily fill Varejao's shoes soon rather than later.

Nice first quarter by the Cavs tonight...
It is obvious that our problem right now in the young season is the fact that we don't have a bench...
I do like the way we are getting out in transistion and running...

Lebron with 16, 3 boards, and 4 assists in the first half. I'm calling another triple double.

Just think what the Cavs would be like if Redd had taken their offer.
