Trade Deadline...Dead.

Let's just get to it. Here are the two things I'm thinking about the Cavs not making a deal.

1. How Dumb are the Wizards?


While the focus might be on Cleveland and people asking, "OMgzzZZz, how did you not get a deal done??" First of all, that doesn't make any sense. You can't just get a deal done by force of will, sheesh. The people who should really be pissed off are Wizards fans.

I know you're thinking, "Why should the Wiz trade some of their best players for cap room?" Because why aren't they? The Wizards aren't a very good team with everyone is healthy, they're a REALLY bad team when people aren't healthy, and...they're never healthy so it doesn't matter anyway. Now, they are going to be in a worse position than they would have been if they had given Jamison to Cleveland, all because they want to see how they are when everyone healthy for what...10 games?? It makes no sense. This is why you're a bad team, Washington. In these hard economic times, neither the Cavs or Blazers made a deal with their expiring contracts. It's because the bad teams are bad for a reason.

2. No Problem.

Cavs didn't make a trade...no problem. Would it have been nice to have Antawn Jamison or Marcus Camby for free? Yes! Are we out of contention because we didn't make a trade? Not even close.

First of all, how happy is Wally Szczerbiak right now? SO happy! This guy has never been a guy in the locker room that is extremely well liked, and now he actually fits into a team's chemistry thanks to the magic worked by the one, the only...LeBron James. He's also part of one of the best teams in the league. I predict he hits the game winner in game 7 of the NBA Finals and he sobs in the post game interview.

So there you have it. The Cavs didn't make a trade, but they're fine...because they're good. In other news, it seems like every veteran big guy who is being bought out wants to go to Boston, which is similar. The Cavs don't need anyone. Anyone who doesn't want to go to the Cavs is dumb...I don't even feel like I'm being biased in saying this.
