Shaq to the Cavs!!

[ommy48]

Well I agree Shaq isnt the player he used to be. Thats a given.
But, the Cavs gave up Ben Wallace and Sasha Pahlovic for a guy who averaged 18/8 last year.
The only thing I fear that may back fire on the Cavs is the spacing and team chemistry. Shaq likes to camp right under the basket and that may clog things up for LeBron when he wants to take it to the hole.
There are also rumors flying around that the Cavs are trying to trade for Vince Carter.

you make a couple of good points as well...I think that the cavs really need a hedo/trevor ariza type player to really compete against Orlando and Boston next year....


and as Turkum mentioned above VC is close to going to Orlando for rafer alston, courtney lee and battie, which would really make Orlando the front runner next year (if they resign hedo of course). all in all things are starting to get real interesting.

in my opinion VC is waste of money.. but i could be wrong

[ommy48]

the VC deal is virtually a lock now, and believe me this is a big big move by Otis Smith, who has just made Danny Ferry's job that much harder....hopefully my Bulls pull off a big move for Bosh to keep up with the top 3 teams in the eastern conf.

Everything is spot on!

regarding Carter, I dont want him on this team...cavs can't land him either...they dont have the contracts to move to fall within 25% of his (carter's) contract

I think the Cavs will look to resign Anderson for around $7.5mil

take a serious look at Villanueva...possibly for MLE

also look at Rasheed Wallace

good God PLEASE, get rid of that sideshow bob look alike who jumps around like a monkey

EDIT- u do mean anderson verajao right? i hope so lol

lol yep the big flop

they will look to resign him if they can keep it around $7.5mil a year...

a 6'11'' active center who's never injured and plays great defense....

i think id keep him....but if he's looking for $10 mil then he can walk

varejao is nowhere near worth even 5 million a year, a 7pt-7reb guy are a dime a dozen

thats the typical assumption made by ppl who don't watch the cavs play that often...his play isn't defined by 7pt...7rb a game...you really have to watch the guy play
