THANK GOD. I think that the Bucks are so bad that he can probably be the 3rd or 4th leading scorer so good for him.

Smart move by Warrick.  He would have been buried on any contender, because he just is not that good.  But on a team like the Bucks, he could probably get some PT out of desperation, and put up some empty numbers.

Ok since we can't get Warrick (was hoping but knew we couldn't get him)... Now we can get Bowen (which i would be extremely happy with).

Sucks we didn't have the ability to make a play for him, but I'm glad he didn't further enrich another contender.

Warrick was never going to sign for LLE money. He's a young player still looking for his big deal. He'll get a ton of minutes on MIL and then be in a better position for a big signing. He would never have come here..

To be honest, I don't see why the Cavs went after Warrick in the first place. They have 2 very capable PF's in Varejao and Hickson and have guys like LeBron and Moon who can play the 4 spot if matchup problems are present. And hell, even Big Z can get minutes at the 4 if they decide to play him and Shaq toghter. I just think that Warrick would have gotten burried on that roster.

And anyways, even without Signing Warrick, Cleveland still has had the best off season of any NBA team.

Uh...Big Z cannot play the 4 - at all. That's silliness. Can you imagine him trying to keep up with a guy like KG? Didn't think so...

At least Warrick won't be in Clevaland next year!

I wish we could have landed him since he was one of the best forward free agents out there but, being as limited as we are only being able to offer the LLE, at least i am happy that he didn't sing with Cleveland. I hope we can make some moves to complete our roster soon!!

I agree, as much as I like the Wallace pickup and even Daniels (if/when it goes through), I have really liked Cleveland's smaller moves of picking up Moon and Parker. Warrick would've been another nice small addition that rounds out a good offseason. Glad they didn't get him.
Go Celtics.

I think most Cav fans view the 4 as their huge weakness. So much that they are considering LeBron there. Sideshow Bob is a flopper who should be coming off the bench and most Cav fans think Hickson sucked last year as a rookie...

They will if they don't trade him.
