Need another wing.

A wing is not really that needed as long as Miller is starting at the 2 and Marion is coming off the bench.

Given mike millers injury history and his age that isn't necessarily the safest bet.

Yea, iron man Mike Miller who is over the hill is not someone I'd be willing to rely on.

But now with Andy's injury big man has become a bigger need. This is basically a pointless thread now.

We of course will see, but I don't think this is necessarily the case. Most potential trades we were looking at for a wing didn't involve the Memphis pick or Haywood. Cavs now have both the DPE and the Bogans TPE to use as trade assets. They could target both a wing and big.

Barring a miracle here I don't see us getting a wing we desperately need. Since Griffin nutted up on those 2 first rounders we can probably only fill one of the holes.

Got to hopefully grab a center and pray iron mike can stay healthy.

Man has Corey Brewer been playing awesome for the Rockets.

What about Moe Harkless? He's getting no playing time in Orlando, and he is likely to be moved for as little as a 2nd round pick. Great size, not the best shooter, but provides youth on the wing which this team desperately needs.

Id see if the pistons would give up Caron Butler. Him and Lebron are friends and I thought he played pretty well for OKC last year.

I really liked him out of the draft and think he would be a great fit, very young, athletic, and developing. Maybe a package centered around Harris and a 2nd?

Again, the Cavs have no second round draft picks to trade. I know I sound like a broken record on this, but the Cavs made the strategic decision that keeping their second round picks (for years out) to facilitate trades wasn't worth as much as the $5.3M trade exception that they managed to generate.

I think Caron Butler's contract is not guaranteed for next year (that's what Basketball Insiders says anyway), so he might be a good candidate to be bought out by Detroit. But that likely won't happen till early March. He's the type of guy you could use the DPE on, as it would allow you to offer more money than any other team is likely able to offer.
