But I've got news for him: They ain't caving. No how, no way, no chance. Even if it means struggling early through this tough part of their schedule.</p> With financial prudence, the Cavs could be in position to significantly upgrade LeBron's supporting cast as soon as next season. Only four Cavs -- LeBron, Larry Hughes, Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Sasha Pavlovic -- currently are on the payroll past the 2008-2009 season. That will give several Cavs trade value next season because expiring contracts are great assets on the trade market. Of course, it also means they could have major cap room two summers from now. They're not about to screw that up by overpaying Varejao, no matter how much they like him.</div></p> No freaking kidding.</p>
