Please Sip on Larry's 40.



After not having cracked the 20-point mark this month (and only twice in all of January), our beloved Larry Hughes went off for 40 points on the Magic, in Orlando no less. Where the hell have you been, our 12-million-dollar man?

(x2 = no way)

Now I could go on and on and on and on about how disappointing Larry has been for my Cavs, especially after how sick his game looked for the Wiz during the (contract) year before we signed him. Whatever. This blog sums it up pretty well.

But now Larry has put together a nice little month as the trade deadline approaches. Hell, he even made my fantasy squad. And the Cavs still NEED a real point guard. period. I mean, I do love me some Boobie, but seriously. We have Shannon Brown (?>why), Gibson (ok), Hughes (not a PG + overpaid), and this asshole:


(chinese shoe deal + he is a dot biz)


So here's my wish list:

1. Jason Kidd. PROS: playoff experience. veteran. still has game. easily the best PG on the market. knows the East. wants out of the Nets organization. CONS: beats women. (photoshop con) racially unsure of self. old (34).


2. Mike Bibby. PROS: playoff experience. veteran. still has game. merely old-ish (29). CONS: worst tattoos in the league (con?). racially unsure of self. seedy entourage. used to wearing the color purple.


3. Andre Miller (my personal choice) PROS: led league in assists w/ Cavs in 01-02. knows the East, and Cleveland city-scape. 76ers want to trade him. CONS: issues w/ BMV. we traded him for D. Miles (unforgiveable?). old-ish (31)


4. Sam Cassell. PROS: playoff experience. veteran. still has game. wants out of Clippers organization. (surprise) CONS: alien-life form. mouthy. hard to look at. real old (38).


Please, Danny Ferry, TAKE YOUR PICK. Make a move and unload some of these warm bodies on a sucker GM. The last time you tried to "get Lebron some help," you acquired Larry Hughes, Damon Jones, and Donyell Marshall. Please right these wrongs and bring us a point guard. Larry's 40 is getting warm.

You may still have a chance at getting wish number 4. Not to mention, you already got a point guard who is racially unsure of himself.
