Cavs sign Leon Powe

[lxlHoTsAuSelxl]

The Cavaliers Main Goal next season is to win their first NBA title.



Shaq, Powe, Parker, Moon, and Green are the missing pieces.

I'm telling you, don't get your hopes to high or you'll be in PB and BBlitz world when LA won. All these new players you guarantee will work out and be a 65+ winning team?

I am going to be more happy if the Cavaliers beat the Lakers in the NBA Finals.

LeBron beating the Powerhouse Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals is a historical feat.

sorry Lebron23 that's not going to happen...Lebron will not win his title in Cleveland.

Yea I see it now..Windy is a legit source. lol if thats true.


Windy also said..


JJ's back still not 100% healthy..

Bringing back Joe would be nice..If we get Kruz he would become something like Matt Bonner.

I follow this celtics blog on twitter and he retweets stuff and a lot of it was celts fans saying don't let him go to cle lol....too late biotches he's ours now.

Jj is disappointing. He didn't even play that much last year and he not 100%. Joe smitch wants 3 yrs ha ha so id take kurz for one year over smith for 3

Agreed..

Another thing..

I like this pick up but if we are willing to take a risk on Powe why in the hell couldnt we take a risk on Blair.. ..his knee's cant be worse then Powe's can they..

[NotYetGreat]

Damn! Cavs have been REALLY active this offseason. Great pick up in Powe. I agree with Ballaholic, though. If they were willing to sign Powe, why not test DeJuan Blair?

I think the reason that Danny Ferry failed to draft Blair is because JJ Hickson is still recovering from his back injury.

Danny Green was a great pick in the 2nd Round, and He's like an upgraded version of Sasha Pavlovic.

Holy crap! Panic time!

The Lakers better counter this move quick! Any other players coming off a torn ACL and microfracture surgery, who are unlikely to play until at least 2/3rds into the season we can sign?

The real reason the Celtics didn't re-sign Powe was that KG was threatened by his awesomness.

[vocalpoint7]

LOL and people say Lakers fans exagerrate Bynum's po.

Listen kid, Powe is a fine young player but he's clearly nothing special and calling him a "steal" especially when he just blew out his knee (again right?) is just showing you don't know what you're saying.

Gasol to LA - steal
Pippen to Bulls - steal
Mo Williams to Cavs - steal
Dirk to Mavs - steal
Roy and Aldridge to Portland - steal

Powe to Cleveland -

Well said good man.

RT @PDcavsinsider: Leon Powe signing should be official in morning. 2 years, $1.77 mil. Sources say Celtics tried to re-sign him after word got out about Cavs.
Idiot lol don't test me I ain't a fool running round here making stuff up

Made up in his head.

Celtics could have tendered him the same 800k deal, and he would have been a restricted free agent. The 800k didn't even have to be full guaranteed in the qualifying offer. They simply chose not to. They didn't want to make any commitment until he was healthy.

They even signed Shelden Williams to prove they were no longer interested in Powe.

BW is legit

Good question

[Lebron23]

Cavs are not done, they still may sign another big man w/ Powe & JJ Hickson not 100%. Joe Smith and Rob Kurz still on list.

Cavaliers should sign Rob Kurz. He's probably the next Matt Bonner.

And Welcome to Cleveland Mr. Powe.

Jeff, It's time to sticky this thread.

[Kingwillball]

sorry Lebron23 that's not going to happen...Lebron will not win his title in Cleveland.

HIS Title, makes it sound like it is a one time deal. Lebron should get at least a Few.

[Lebron23]

At Least Bizzaro (Howard) is not going to have some easy dunks in the playoffs now that the Cavs acquire Shaquille O'Neal (Real Superman) and Leon Powe (The Punisher).

[lilgodfather1]

Well said good man.

Powe is actually a bigger steal if he comes back healthy. No he is not the player that those guys are, but those teams traded for those players, where as all we did was sign him. So we pay 800K for Powe where as LA for example gave up Gasol, Kwame, picks, etc for Gasol plus they have to pay for him. So in reality the Cavs did get a steal.
