good news for Nets fans as hes going to be in the second year of a 51.5 million dollar contract. I don't think hes the kind of player that can convince Lebron to stay anyway since hes kind of a shoot first PG.</div>

That looked like a terrible trade for the Bucks. Damon Jones?
 
Shouldn't the title read: "Mo Williams to Cavs"?
 
well, where does that leave West on the cavs?
not sure if it's a good trade for any team involved, but we'll see.
 
I personally believe this acquisition will convince Lebron that the Cavs are serious about winning. You can pretty much forget about the 2010 plan.
 
go after west
solid combo guard... and i loved him on st. joes

You are telling me that getting Mo freakin Williams will do that? COME ON NOW!
 
LOL

Skiles gets his Hinrich clone (white PG, because he looks like Skiles)
 
Why are NBA trades always so complex? Cuban's make the most sense IMO.

Collective bargaining agreement, a low salary cap, and small rosters.

It's typical you need to involve a 3rd team in a trade just to make the CBA rules work out.
 
"Milwaukee also signed guard Tyronn Lue and forward Malik Allen in an effort to bolster what has been one of the league’s worst defenses."

huh? when the journalist says they signed Malik Allen to bolster a bad defense, does he mean make it even worse? on purpose?

Wow, that'd be nice. Although, I'd expect him to go for a starting job somewhere. Or at least somewhere that he'll get big minutes.

That quote is awesome. They're trying to make the league's worst defense even worse. That's epic.

He does have an offer in Europe.

...Mo Williams?

If this were Michael Redd...I'd understand.
 
So... is Mo not gonna pass to LeBron now?

Oh, and this might backfire on the keep LeBron front, as this likely moves his best friend to the bench.
 
Boobie wouldn't start anyway, and I think this trade means that Delonte will probably be traded soon-ish. If they do a sign-and-trade circa $8m then they could probably get a nice piece for him. Add into the fray Wally's expiring contract which increases in value the closer you get to the February trade deadline, and the Cavs could have a Championship contending team (note team, not player) come the end of the season. And that would keep LeBron happy.

This is, without doubt, the most important 6 months in history for the Cavaliers. If they can build a great team around LeBron, he will probably stay. If they can't, they will sink back into mediocrity for the next decade or so.

i think he was just being sarcastic...
 
i guess cleveland couldn't forget mo williams' 37-point outburst against them last year...

solid player but a bit overpaid
has good court vision but is selfish
can stay in front of anyone but lacks concentration on defense
very good scorer but makes bad decisions with the ball

ok hes OVERPAID not a bit... and yes he can score... but him being the x factor whether lebron stays with them? hmm nope... and we dont even kno the chemistry between the two... it can backfire...

and for west... omg... id love for him to be on the nets... not only is he good offensively he actually cares bout defense!
 
with West still out there I don't understand why Golden State didn't jump all over him after Baron left. He seems to be exactly the type of player they would like. On the other hand I could totally see a stephen jackson for Delonte West trade, if the cavs add picks. Withe Maggete there it would seem that Jackson is expendable and West is a big upgrade over marcus any day.

That'd be quite the steal for the Cavs. I hope that doesn't happen, ever.
 
If I was Ferry I would do everything I could to bring in better talent around Lebron in order for him to stay. As a nets fan I just don't see Lebron coming to the nets nor will I allow myself to believe that there's a chance that he will. Cleveland can always offer him more money and an extra year. I also think its ridiculous to sit here two years before it can happen and wonder what it would be like for him to be on the nets.
 
Time to trade Wally+fillers for a big that can some offense and things will seem much better for the Cavs.

Good comments. He is exactly the same as u described.
 
Looking at the trade just on the surface, it seems like a good trade for all 3 teams.

WHen the season begins (and ends) we'll have a better idea on how Bucks and Cavs made out in this trade.
 
mo is a scorer... and addin him with LBJ just makes cleveland a lot better
