    Cavs trade Williams and Moon to Clippers for Baron Davis

    I kinda feel bad for Baron Davis, if you look at his track record, he has either left or gotten traded right when his current team has some potential or are on the rise. Look at Golden State, LA Clippers, but now gets traded to the lowly Cleveland Cavaliers. OUCH!

    No feeling sorry for him
    Baron was the reason he left NO, and he chose to leave GSW for more money, and to say the Clipper are "on the rise" is a bit of stretch, sure they are better the the crap they;ve been for the last 20 years but they still aren't very good and are looking at
    another bottom 5 finish.

    Now he can go to a Cleveland team and once again bitch moan and not put any effort into playing.

    Oh I know he left Golden State for more money, but I said he's left teams that have potential or are on the rise. I'm saying the Clippers have potential with there young stars.

    One man's trash, is another mans Garbage. Neither team improved with this trade.

    Actually the Clipps should buy out Mo Willy's contract, b/c he blows. Though he thinks he is good, which is a problem.

    Clipps are alway thought to have young stars. Why, b/c when you draft in the top ten every year you better have good young players.

    One of two things. The Clippers think they can get Chris Paul (which is rumored) or they really like the back court of Bledsoe and Gordon.

    Bledsoe by the way, is going to be a very good PG. He makes great decisions.

    Wow, Clips were lucky to unload his contract.

    On a side note, hilarious photo with the Yahoo Sports headline.

    Baron Davis sent to Cleveland!

    Definitely. If you're not going to win a championship with the guy, why keep that contract? He's good for 3 great ally oops passes a game. That's it!!

    This is why the clippers are the clippers. What a stupid ass move. Im not saying getting rid of Davis is a bad move but they gave up a first round pick for Mo Williams and Jamario Moon????????What the Fukkkk

    They had to. Davis is getting 28 million over the next two years. Who's going to touch that?

    Good move for Los Angeles. Williams is much younger and has a lot more energy than Davis. I think Williams and Blake will form a good chemistry very quickly. Baron will never go to a contender until this deal is up and he's a year by year type of point guard. He ruined it by leaving Golden State for more coin

    Good, Baron Davis is a bum. Always shows up in preseason out of shape. More concerned about his stupid movies than basketball. Good luck finding movie producers to hang out with in Cleveland.

    You're a southern California guy, you just threw an ally-oop through a sunroof to the slam dunk champion, and then 3 days later you get the call...."Hey Baron, have you heard how great the weather is in Cleveland during February...."

    I'm from Akron and a huge cavs fan. I actually like this deal, the cavs will buy davis out if the price is right, which it probably will be since he LOVES LA and is from the west coast. Cavs will have 2 top 10 draft picks this season and also their trade exception they got from LeFraud.

    Taking on Davis' contract sucks, but its only $12 million more than the 2 they traded, so they paid $12 million for a top 10 pick. Sure, this might not be the best draft, but 2 top 10 picks are 2 top 10 picks.

    In the end, if you look at where the cavs were headed a week ago and now, I say its progress.

    But 1 got a top 10 draft pick. Since when are those meaningless?

    Baron won't be bought out... way too big of a #... maybe in the last year of the deal they will talk buy out.

    maybe Baron hates the idea so much that he retires....talk about a real coup for the Cavs if that happened.

    This move seems like it is more about fvcking over Baron Davis, than it is improving the Clippers.

    Clips owner Donald Sterling couldn't stand Baron, often heckling him during games.

    I think this is hilarious. Baron Davis is a bum, and he's already forgotten.
