    Does anyone know why the Cavs did not sign Varejao after Portland cut him?
    The Cavs have two empty roster spots, they know that Varejao will fit in. If GS signed him then certainly he is still good enough for the Cavs. The trade last week was for contract purposes.

    Maybe they want to get him a championship ring before he retires?


    Cavaliers happy for fan favorite Varejao after joining Warriors
    http://www.thescore.com/nba/news/966163
    After spending the entirety of his 13-year career wearing wine and gold, Anderson Varejao is now the enemy.Varejao latched on with the Golden State Warriors after being traded from the Cleveland Cavaliers and then waived by the Portland Trail Blazers, but his former teammates harbor no resentment."They're going to get all of our intel now," Kevin Love joked to Chris Haynes of Cleveland.com. "Nah, but seriously, I'm happy for him. He goes to obviously a very good team. It's tough losing a brother like that and what he meant to this city, this organization. He was beloved here."Varejao joined the Cavaliers when LeBron James was in his second season. James considers him a good friend and said he didn't have a problem with his destination."The man has to work. He's got to work," James said. The most emotional Cavalier might have been Tristan Thompson, who credits Varejao for teaching him the ropes when Thompson was a rookie. Thompson would eventually replace Varejao as the Cavaliers' hustle, defense-first power forward of choice, but he owes his game to the floppy-haired Brazilian."Andy was more than just a teammate, he was a friend, a big brother, and so wherever he can go to keep playing, I'm happy for him, even with him being with the Warriors," Thompson said.

                  If the Finals is Cavs v. GS -> he gets the ring either way.

                      My entry in the contest to name the team was "The Cleveland Cannons".
                      To me, anyone that didn't enter that contest is hanging onto the bandwagon by a thread.

                      And please don't give me that bullshit excuse "I wasn't born yet", whose fault is that.

                                  always felt Varejao lacked aggressiveness

                                  and should have curt his hair along time ago, lost weight too.

                                  he always looked like he didn't want to disturb his hair too much.

                                  pro athletes that have to run a lot, should avoid long hair.. ditto Shumpert

                                  it will slow you down, by 3% or soothing small. but that is the difference much of th time
