October 30, 2007

The Cavaliers and Sasha Pavlovic have reached an agreement on a new contract, his agent Marc Cornstein just informed me.
In talking to some league sources, I am told it is a three-year contract worth between $4-$5 million per season. It got done over the last two days as the Cavs pressed to make it [...]

Howard passes on Cavs

October 30, 2007

Just heard from some sources that Juwan Howard is going to sign with the Mavericks. He listened to the Cavs offer and was interested, but apparently the fact that his family lives in the Houston area played a factor in the decision.

Cavs having a rough patch

October 4, 2007

After two years of virtually nothing but good news coming out of Cavsland, this summer and early fall have been a bit of a shock to the system. Some of it is understandable and some of it isn’t, but it surely seems like I’ve written more negative-toned stories about the franchise over the last [...]

Varejao and Pavlovic in uncharted waters

October 1, 2007

For the last two years the Cavaliers have mostly enjoyed harmony and good chemistry. It has been part of the reason they’ve become one of the best teams in the league even though from top to bottom they do not have the best talent. While other teams have had players fight, demand trades, [...]
