Preparing for the worst: Cleveland Cavs

Lebron James


Who to blame? Danny Ferry? Anderson Varejao? New York Media?

I don't know but the truth it's that I don't feel good things happening for Cleveland in the medium run- say 5 year or so - this is Lebron's fifth season and nothing appears to be improving around him. Danny Ferry and his staff have only two more years to make a real run to get some real quality around King James before he leave and play for the Knicks .. probably...

Yes, they did reached the Finals last year but even Lebron has to realized their path to the Eastern Conference crown was a little, let's call it less rocky that any other one. A Wizards team minus Arenas and Butler, and Nets team minus Kritic and Jefferson and a old tired Detroit Pistons team. They need to thank the Basketball's Gods and the Chicago Bulls for that. But the chances of that happening again are very unlikely thats way Lebron needs help from his own organization.

Varejao is a important part of this team, and Danny Ferry's inability to sign this guy really worries me and put this guy ability to create a winning around Lebron on very thin ice. If the Cavaliers organization can not create a winning and consistent team in the next two years Lebron will walk. That's why Lebron signed a short contract extension ( ala Tim Duncan ) to press the Cavaliers to build a winning team pronto.

If the history goes as it's being told so far Lebron, and Wade (, are going to be playing for another team for the 2011 -'12 season.
