All over twitter right now. Nice pick-up if he's healthy.

Part of me thinks he is healthy (atleast temporarily) and just messed up the surgery schedule. Guy is a mercurial personality but he can score downlow and is worth the risk for the Cavs....

him, Varejao and Kyrie hurt a lot. IF they can stay healthy that is a playoff team...

btw just saw the terms. team option 2nd year...So if he works out he is a bargain 2nd year and if he doesn't you just cut him or pick it up and deal him...

low risk deal, keeps the money available for them to pursue lebron next year.

if he doesnt play, he dont get paid according to the contract rules.

No he gets 6Ms guaranteed.

It is a good move for Cle though, even if there is only a 5-10% chance he returns to 2012 form that is basically just roleplayer money wasted. And if he does return to form you got a top 5 C (probably #1 C on offense really)

He just isnt that concerned about basketball. I will vomit if LBJ comes back to clev and he wins a title when Bynum.

Vitt you gonna pay for seasons again with Phi in tank mode? Seems like you have to and just hope they get Wiggins/Parker.

Their new GM is doing the right thing for sure...Team was going nowhere and nobody in Phi cares about NBA right now

this move is the cavs saying to lebron were serious about competing, we are making moves.

they got kyrie irving, a developing dion waiters, anthony bennett (1st pick), tristian thompson developing player, maybe bynum returns to his old self?

lebron would have a better chance going with cleveland then he would staying in miami with wade and bosh on the decline.

this move is solely for lebron.

Still not anywhere near a championship team. Playoffs at best

lol sounds nice but given the terms of the deal I think they would do it regardless. Clearly they know they are a small market team that needs to take a risk.

fwiw I think they've done a terrible job drafting but that is a different subject.

I am....gonna see what the new kids have. Tank city this year but they did the right thing. That team was stuck in mud. At least they are making moves and trying. The bynum thing didnt work out but they take chances and thats fine by me. With new orl pick next year and their own probable lottery pick, if they draft well....could be a solid squad in the future

nah, theyd tank. i think the cavs think they have a good shot at lebron. jarret jack was another great move they made, he will be a solid 6th man.
