    link<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>CLEVELAND -- The Cavaliers signed guard Stephen Graham for the rest of the season and waived forward Lee Nailon on Friday.Graham has averaged 3 points and 1.7 rebounds in six games with Cleveland after being signed to a pair of 10-day contracts on Feb. 6 and 20. He was released Thursday when the Cavaliers acquired Nailon in a trade with Philadelphia and obtained Flip Murray from Seattle for Mike Wilks in an exchange of guards.Graham also played six games for Houston and three for Chicago this season and is averaging 2.7 points and 1.3 rebounds in 15 games overall.Nailon played in 22 games for Philadelphia, averaging 4.2 points, 1.9 rebounds and 10.8 minutes.</div>this is the only move I question why would they trade a draft pick for a player then release him I dont know can someone tell me

    I wouldn't have traded for the guy in the first place. But yea, I don't know why they would do that either. Something must have come up for them to waive a player, then sign him back up.

    the pick that the cavs traded was conditional they only way that the Sixers will get it is if the Cavs finish with one of the top 3 records in the NBA which is not going to happen. and the cavs got Phillys secound round pick.So they will have 2 second round picks this year.
