I’m going to have to wait to put up my post on the complex psychology of LeBron’s decision to go to Miami. Sorry. Movie writing caught up to me today.
A few brief observations…
Yes, it’s only two summer league games, but Sacramento Kings rookie DeMarcus Cousins is out rebounding third year Cavaliers power forward JJ Hickson…
Kyle Lowry will not be a Cavalier. Thank you to the Houston Rockets for quickly matching the offer sheet so the Cavs can look into other options and use that Mid Level Exception money - which would have been placed on hold for Lowry for seven days otherwise…
As much as I am wary of the Cavs replicating the former Milwaukee Bucks backcourt of Ramon Sessions and Mo Williams for psychological reasons, Sessions would be a great value addition to a team that is desperately in need of players who can create shots for themselves and others…
Sessions is also cheaper than Mike Conley in the long run, as Conley will become a restricted free agent after this season, with a $6.5M qualifying offer. I’m sure the Buckeyes contingent would prefer MC though. Totally unbiased, of course…
in Tuesday’s summer league game, it looked to me like Danny Green had taken over LeBron’s role in the offense. This, unfortunately, did not look like something the team wants to continue utilizing in the future…
And I’m spent for now. We really will start writing about something other than basketball at some point in the near future. But, right now, most of the Cleveland-based storylines are happening with the Cavs.
I’m tired. Goodnight, good morning, until next time … thanks for reading.
