Trade wont go through Until July when we can absorb the contract.
We just lost 2 million in cap space. Anyone else concerned?

No. Because...

Cavs-Hornets deal should be official soon: 2nd-rd pick Dwight Powell and C Brendan Haywood to Cavs. Alonzo Gee to Hornets (according to AP).

2 mil wont hinder anything we want to do. All it will do is be an extra chip we can use to make salaries match in a trade. From that scouting report id say the Cavs may have been looking at this kid and an oppritunity to get him came and they jumped. Big that can shoot and run, worth it to at least get him in camp.

Seems like Blatt or Griff REALLY want a team of bigs that can run...and we sure have that

I like the look of this kid. He's 6'11 too.

Looks like a Plumlee brother with more skills.

Looks like a Plumlee brother with more skills.

If he can be Miles Plumlee with a jump shot than he can potentially start Center for us.

Gees contract was not guaranteed. Hopefully Haywood's isn't either? Makes little sense to give away cap room

I like that his skill set is similar to zeller, so if he sees the court he will be able to play in similar spots. I'm always weary of expecting much from the second round though.

I am thinking you can say good bye to Mr. Gee for one. Looks like a lot of roster spots will change.
