Obviously a better team without that stiff Kyrie Irving!!

(I'm joking!) I'm sure the Lakers took note of that 24 point 13 assist effort by Sessions as the main man however!!

Browns typically fail in the RG 3 sweepstakes....which is probably good as the Redskins gave up everything. Great deal for the Rams. No pressure at all on Griffin in DC!!

Cavs win two straight road games against winning teams?? Just when the Varejao injury looks to have them heading toward worst 5 status they win out west. 8-17 against the East and 7-6 against the West. That doesn't seem to make sense.

In the most unsurprising news of the century another serious injury for Sizeless. Incredible.

Cavs continue to be a professionally run organization as opposed to the Browns. Gilbert takes on more salary to get a free draft pick. Sessions free agent after this year so he was definitely gone...no way he stays to be Irving's caddy. Shame their two best players played the same position....but taking on Baron Davis salary last year netted them Kyrie Irving, as it was the clippers pick that became the number one, not their own. Get another 1st rounder next year although it will be a low pick...25 or so, doesn't matter. also will likely improve their own lottery position by dumping Sessions as well. So I really don't mind taking on Walton's salary at all for a little bit. Everyone thinks the Lakers got the best of this deal which may be true, but a very smart move by the Cavs looking at the big picture.

It was pretty much a non factor of a move really. Sessions was leaving anyway so they more or less bought a low draft pick which a few clubs are willing to sell each year. It wasnt a bad move but I wouldnt give them too much credit

Not that it belongs in the Cleveland thread but the great Lehigh Mountain Hawk guard CJ McCollum and horseofcourse are graduates of the same high school!! Way to represent CJ! (he was a lot better than me for the record

Did you actually graduate or declare for the draft early?

For some reason college recruiters ignored me when I was still playing Junior Varsity as a Junior, I couldn't figure it out. As a Senior, it was very apparent my future in b-ball was a future university intramural hack! CJ's 5 for 22 against Xavier was something I know very well!
