    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">-- Former Cavaliers forward Danny Ferry is close to finalizing a deal to become Cavs General Manager, according to an NBA executive close to the situation.

    The deal between the Cavs and Ferry is expected to be done following the end of the NBA Fi nals between the Detroit Pis tons and the San Antonio Spurs. Ferry, who will re place former Cavs GM Jim Paxson, is the Spurs' director of basketball operations. </div>

    hmmmm, I wouldn't be opposed to this. He has worked with one of the best FO's in the league, and if he can bring that here, it could work nice.

    dont be too sure

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"According to a person close to the search, however, media reports Monday that Ferry will be named the team's general manager after the NBA Finals were premature. It is not yet clear whether Ferry would accept the job if offered. He is happy with the Spurs, and the job with the Cavaliers likely wouldn't make him the organization's top decision-maker."

    I agree. But if I were Kiki, I'd stay out in Denver considering he's got a nice team brewing out there. He's really turned that team into a contender in the west with the additions of K-Mart and Carmello. Camby and Miller have also played exceptionally well.

    I like the idea of bringing in Ferry. He's a former Cav so he would bring kind of what Dumars did when he was hired by the Pistons. I think it would be a great duo of Kiki & Ferry.
