    Send Leonard, Claver, and Barton to Sac town for Thompson and a filler.

    Memphis forward Quincy Pondexter is expected to miss the rest of the season with the stress fracture in his foot, league sources tell Yahoo.

    I am hoping they can pick him up but not seeing it. After trading for Scola, they gave up their pick and Plumlee. By taking any bad contracts with Lowry, they limit their ability to resign Lance.

    Lowry is expiring so I don't think resigning Lance would be an issue.

    I thin kit's a bad idea to mess with chemistry for a potential marginal upgrade.

    I think we really just need someone like Jerm, Evans or Dalembert type caliber. If we try and look too high, then we will have to give too much for a player that is giving us 10-15 minutes a game.

    Dalembert looked pretty crappy against us.

    The reason is he wasn't used in the game plan. He is having a 16.9 PER season. I'm not saying to get him because I doubt very much that Dallas will trade him. I am just using him as the type of caliber player we should look into getting. 2-4 mil type center

    I just threw up in my mouth!

    I would really like to get Varejao. I think he is the perfect bench player for us. I just don't see us doing it though.

    EDIT: It looks like Leonard, Freeland and Claver will get it done salary-wise. Cleveland would definitely get younger! LOL

    Try making a Lowry trade with Indiana not taking a bad contract back.

    I am willing to bet that Cleveland would want us to take back Waiters in that deal.

    If that were the case, then we would need to trade Mo Williams, Claver, Leonard and Freeland.

    Having Waiters on this team would be hi-larious.

    Varejao has lost a step and the most games he's played in any of the last four years is 31. Do we really want to bring in the most injury prone center outside of Greg Oden?
