Is Camby a possibility for Cleveland?

[tyguy90]

yeah he said he chatted with him briefly and that the clippers arent trading him at the moment.

And if anything happens it will be in the final moments.

Looks like Ferry is trying to pull off another last second trade. Thats fine with me if its for a good player.

OK, Roda said he talked to Ferry, and Danny said Camby wasn't available at the moment but something cold happen at the deadline (not for Camby per se, but anything could happen).

Obviously though, Ferry isn't going to tell Roda ANYTHING right now.

Alright, thank you for clearing that up. So he basically told Roda nothing other than the obvious.

Watching Cavaliers Live right now. AC and Fred just said that Tarence will be starting right now and Wally will be coming off of the bench.

That doesn't mean much, it just means we have an actual healthy SG to play SG besides Trey Johnson, because Wally is no SG.

Woo, Kinsey!

Any word about Delonte or Ben tonight?

come on now, clearly this is a deal where they are holding Wally's minutes down to help prevent an injury, you don't start Kinsey over Wally any other time.

Wally can play the 2 and has played it ok. I would think with Kinsey injury that they would slowly put him into the lineup, not start him off the bat.

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

Woo, Kinsey!

Any word about Delonte or Ben tonight?

Delonte and Ben both AREN'T playing tonight.


But neither is Bosh, so we'll be fine.

 

[KIisKing]

TRADE!

Notice the part where it says coming off the bench not inactive.

Thats good that were giving TK a shot, hes the man.

Because people are trading for Wally's un-matched basketball skill-set, and not his 13 million dollar contract....

right...........................

I think they are trying to get him back to his normal role of coming off the bench. Don't get me wrong he has done an outstanding job in his starting role. With Tarrence (back tonight) and Delonte (soon to be back) I think they want to start getting their rotation back to normal.

Then again they could be trying to limit his minutes to prevent injury but not to the point where they are shorthanded. I know that's a stretch but a guy can dream can't he.

Let the pipe dream comments flourish. Lol.

 

[Obawan12]

Starting Kinsey over Wally puzzles me, he is just coming off an injury and Wally has been playing fine. I guess the poster who said we could be preventing injury for a trade makes some sense, though he is going to be playing anyway, so IDK.

Sources: Any Camby deal for Cavs dead

by Brian Windhorst/Plain Dealer Reporter

TORONTO -- Over the last couple days there has been some conflicting information as to whether the Clippers' Marcus Camby was truly available. Different league executives apparently had been told different things as tomorrow's deadline neared.

A league source told me this afternoon that any chances the Cavs had at getting Camby are currently dead. It is not clear whether they were ever serious, considering how Clippers coach and GM Mike Dunleavy openly said Camby was not on the block.

Things are always changing in the NBA, last year's 10-player deal was virtually dead on trade deadline morning and came back to life as the day went on. But the Cavs, according to several league executives, are moving on.

The team is still in trade talks at this moment but is having trouble making any headway as a number of deals in the NBA seem to be pending. Right now there are rumors of at least four or five trades under serious consideration.
