<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Eric Maruschak, Cleveland Plain Dealer:</div><div class="quote_post"> A list of players that were on the Cavaliers? roster in LeBron James? rookie season. Carlos Boozer: On the Utah Jazz roster. Played in only 33 games last season because of injuries. J.R. Bremer: Last played with Golden State Warriors in 2004. Ricky Davis: Traded to Boston. Starts for the Minnesota Timberwolves. DeSagana Diop: Center for the Dallas Mavericks. Had a career year in 2005 starting 45 games. </div> Source The list also shows the rest of the squad from when LeBron first entered the League. Whilst it is ridiculous that there has been such a ack of continuity amongst the Cavaliers, it is also a blessing in disguise as so many of the players were so weak that they did not deserve to be playing even in the League, hence they are out already. With a good squad now, we must hope for continuity and stability over the next few years as we attempt to mount a serious title challenge.
If I were the Cavs I would be too upset with losing any of those guys. Boozer was a d!ck for what he did, Diop played like a bust in Cleveland, and though I like Ricky D he was in his arrogant SOB phase when he was there.
I'm not upset about the loss of the players. Technically, I'm upset at the loss of Boozer (if you disregard his injury problems) because he was a huge talent. The fact that he was a backstabber in the whole affair is irrelevant to whether or not we are upset to lose him because, had we not lost him, he would not have double crossed us. It is, however, pleasing to see him fail in Utah, as he deserves everything he gets but, as I always say; "hopefully Carlos <strike>Loozer</strike> Boozer has fun wathcing the Cavs during the postseason from his nice comfortable mansion, as he won't be playing in the postseason any time too soon". I'm not bothered about most of them because, as I said, they're pretty weak. With the group of guys we have at the moment, however, I would be slightly upset if some of them left, because continuity and stability are key for championship-calibre teams.
