Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Gotta think Pargo goes? Selby same type player and Livingston can play backup point
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

According to Windy Wayne Ellington as coming to the Cavs, means someone has to get cut...

Looks like the Cavs brass is in for a tough decision. So many scrubs, only one cut.

And for anyone wondering why the Grizzlies did this, Hollinger loved Leuer coming out of the draft. My money says the kid plays a lot better in Memphis.
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Pargo or Livingston is getting cut IMO or we're possibly moving Gibson

Itll be Pargo. With Livingston& Selby, there will be no need for him.

Ellington will cancel out Boobie, but I believe he has a QO next year. Not sure if we would pick it up.
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Move Gibby to where and for what?
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Got to love it. Windhorst broke the story and continues to add tidbits. Meanwhile, MSB, Bob Finnan and the "others" must be cleaning their cars off from snow.
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Jesus, what got into Chris Grant this morning? Wow. What a coup for just Jon Leuer!
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Not a huge Wayne Ellington fan but I believe he is an expiring. Great trade though. Is Speights healthy?
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

This was as solid of a trade as you could get.
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

It's only a "coup" if Memphis wasn't desperately trying to create cap room. So I disagree with you that it's a "coup".

A good haul, but only because Memphis wanted to keep Gay (or so it seems).

My guess is he will be moved with Walton.

Give Grant a lot of credit, he found serviceable players and an extra 2nd from a team trying to make moves to get below the tax. We gave up a player would never saw minutes for a lot. Our bench is much better and deeper after this trade. This now allows us to move Walton & Gibson without sacrificing any depth (like they provided any).

I agree. While Ellington and Speights aren't great players, they serve a purpose on the Cavaliers.

Do you think that Gibson will be moved in a similar deal?
 
Re: Cavs In Talks With Memphis

Yeah, Selby is like a cheaper Boobie who can't shoot quite as well.

Just for laughs, then what can he do? BC thats all Gibson is capabale of.



I know what you meant, but couldnt help but chuckle
