    I can imagine him as Pam Greer's body guard or Shaft's undercover guy in Columbia

    I think he's paid 9.75 mil next yr and with the new stretch provision you could make it 3.25 mil over the ext 3 yrs, so that's the cost for a 2018 ist rdr - not too bad I think

    I think it would be a 2018 pick, Lebron will be 34 at least, they could be in decline and they are still now in salary cap hell, might be worth the risk?

    They still have Kyrie and Thompson locked in. And whatever they will get for love. I think LeBron will be studly into his late 30's.

    3.25 over 3 years is basically like having a mid lottery pick on the team, if it meant getting a decent pick... Sure why the hell not.

    A shot blocker, a rim protector, an excellent team-defender, great basketball IQ, intensity, could be our new Robin Lopez

    Rethinking this, if it costs us 9mil in cap room it's a concern, we can probably bring a better player for 9mil in free agency, I really want Varejao though, he gives us some things we don't get from other players, if I were the GM I'd do it, but it's a gamble

    If the Cavs want to save the money badly enough make them pay for it, a 1st or no deal for absorbing varajoe and saving Dan Gilbert millions.

    Well thankfully Olshey is our GM because Ed Davis does everything Verejao does but he does it better.

    We already did the Cavs a favor this summer with the Brendon Haywood deal. We better get something good in return if we help them some more.

    I don't think the reporter heard we're interested, I just think they listed the 2 teams with cap space as possible destinations.

    Varejao is Robin Lopez, Ed Davis is a different thing, just imagine Meyers and Varejao in the front-court, we'd be unstoppable
