  So Leon gets healthy, you trade away one of your bigs, then Leon gets hurt and you're smiling up a storm because of the great contribution you got from Leon that year.

what's CLEs plan if one of their bigs gets hurt....?

  Right now they're trying to trade for a big, aren't they?

by trading a big....and not to be their 3rd or 4th big off the bench...

  The plan is to trade Z to a team that will cut him and let him coem back to the Cavs.

maybe they will cut him...who knows? but Z, again, would not be the third or fourth big off the bench....which is what we were talking about with Leon on the Cs....

  I have no idea where you're trying ot go with this.

I making the same point I have been making for a while now....that Leon at 75% would have value on the Cs because he would make you feel better about including a guy like Shelden (who is the 3rd or 4th big off our bench) in a trade package....which is less than the 100% you require for him to have value and still not actually getting that much PT....

just like he has value to CLE who signed him to a position they have little depth at...because it was not unreasonable to think that he could get to a level where he could contribute and add depth...

Leon at 75% is not an NBA player.  He needs his quickness and explosiveness to be able to score inside and rebound, and without that, he is a pretty terrible player. 



Well, let's see....we should get a good test on this...

  As "Forums Viceroy" I assume you have the power to dock yourself a few hundred tommy points if everyone starts using large text and colors...
