Since he injured his ankle, the Cavs have had sprains and twists to Varejao, LeBron, and now Newble. Who's next for this team?
Hopefully no one. Since Newble will be down looks like Shasha will be starting.. THis is a young kid with a lot of talent.. now he can finally prove what he is worth.
Sasha played probably his best game all year last night. He had a career high 17 points. I really think Sasha needed to be starting over Ira anyways. Ira plays solid defense, but couldn't hit a shot to save his life...
The Cavs are going to need some players to step up especially defensivly. Keon Clark should help out some, but who knows how good of shape he is in or when the last time he played basketball was. This season has been filled with people landing on feet and spraining ankles. It seems to happen almost every week in the leauge now.
Well, Ira is actually doing a pretty good job in my opinion this year. He has been his usually solid defensive self, and he has also done a fairly good job of hitting the open jumper. Mid-range jumpshots are falling for him, and Lebron is doing a good job of finding him. Sasha is a great player too, and I think that he would be a good fit in the lineup with Lebron. A good cutter, and a fair defensive player in his own right. What ever happened to D. Wagner? He was a solid player the year before the Lebron era began, and now he has dropped off the radar completely. Will he ever play again?

With J-Mac shitty defense we really don't need another starter who cant play defense that great.
Yeah, Ira hasn't been doing too bad, but I don't think he's that good of an offensive player. I really liked what Sasha did last night though. Ira's defensive presense will be missed these next two weeks...

He always seems to be injured or sick, and I like the guy's game, but I don't think the Cav's will re-sign him when his contract runs out.
