A couple of thoughts here.
1. This trade is still a work in process. It was more about having 24 million dollars in expriring contracts to dangle next year, and 34 million the year after, than it was about getting a player that puts you over the top. Yes - I would have rather gotten Pau or Kidd or Devin Harris or or or, but we will have to wait and see what they can get over the summer or by the trade deadline instead. Also, anyone that thinks we miss Danielle Marsha or Ghandi Newble is kidding themselves. Larry was ok - not half of the player we were paying for, and Drew is Drew. Somedays he's Karl Malone. Most days, he's AWOL.
2. Someone mentioned the coach needing to come up with a new plan that doesn't involve Lebron doing everything and everyone else just watching.
Yes. But.
He doesn't have an effen clue how to run an offense. Bubba Gump thinks if you play defense, they give you style points. Besides, haven't you guys seen the monumental difference the new CSKA Moscow offense he installed this year is making? It's a totally diferrent brand of basketball here in Cleveland..... 
3. Yes - the role players we do have need to step up. The question is, can they? I'm not so sure.
This probably isn't the Cavs year, but they have the ammunition to make some big waves for the next 2...
