<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Cavaliers coach Paul Silas changed his mind and took guard Ricky Davis to New Orleans for Cleveland's game Wednesday night against the Hornets. On Monday, Silas banned Davis from two practices and said his third-leading scorer -- as well as forward Michael Stewart -- would not travel with the Cavs for one game. Silas, though, had an apparent change of heart Tuesday, allowing Stewart to practice and saying that Davis would accompany the team to New Orleans. "He's going," said Silas, who met with Davis shortly before the team departed Gund Arena. "I just think it's necessary." It's been a strange two days for the Cavs, who suspended forward Ira Newble for one game following his argument with Silas after Cleveland's loss Saturday in Atlanta. The club's decision to keep Davis and Stewart away from the team raised more questions than answers after Silas and general manager Jim Paxson refused to say what led to the players being disciplined. On Tuesday, Silas, who will face the Hornets for the first time since being fired by New Orleans owner George Shinn in May, said he may have reacted too quickly in benching Davis. "We really didn't get a chance to talk and I have a tendency to do that sometimes," he said. The friction between Davis and Silas dates to their days together in Charlotte, where the fifth-year guard began his NBA career.</div> Full Story
on ESPN they said they were possibly holding him back because he was about to be traded...why did they all of a sudden bring him...is the trade not going to happen or did Silas really just have a change of heart
ESPN was also talking about the cavs needing to do a trade to get all of the negative players that away from James because a young player doesn't need that while trying to improve on their game
