That's not good.

Szczerbiak is a free agent after the Cavs elected not to re-sign him and recently underwent minor knee surgery. But the 32-year-old has not ruled out trying to make a comeback this season and would appear to be fully eligible to be plugged into a deal by the Cavs in a manner similar to Dallas' signing-and-trading of Keith Van Horn in February 2008 in the Mavericks' complicated trade to re-acquire Jason Kidd.



They are in position to make a big trade.  Two if they don't care about have big Z's money come off the book.

Put it this way, they could conceicable trade Big Z, West and Wally (only needing to be worth a little more then 6 million) to NO for West, Okafor and Posey. 


NO could save 4 million this year, around 20 million next season, 25+ the next year.

NO is not trading West. But acquiring Okafor and Posey would be a huge improvement for Cleveland, and I don't like that at all...

I am not saying this trade would happen, just looking at an example of how much salary dumping they can provide another team for good players.

If it makes you feel better, we still have Roshown McLeod's deal on our books, and can include him in a sign-and-trade.  In his last season, he earned $4,527,003.  We can sign him to a deal up to 20% more than that without Base Year Compensation kicking in, meaning we have $5,432,403.60 to work with.  ;)

And only if they send us Vujacic in exchange....
