Center of Attention


TORONTO - In cast you missed it last night, Anderson Varejao's tip dunk with 16 seconds not only gave the Cavs the win, but also punctuated a three-game stretch of excellent play since the Brazilian took over the starting spot at center. He's putting up 13 and 11 since Z left the team with his family issues. (If this were a valid reason to miss games in the mid-90's, Shawn Kemp would be vying with Grant Hill and Len Bias for the all-time missed games list). Some are speculating that Mike Brown might have a tough decision to make when Z comes back. Zydrunas was only averaging 11.7 ppg and 8 rebounds this season while contributing very little on the defensive end.

TRADE UPDATE - This morning on the Steve Czaban Show, Mike Brown said that Ferry told him last night not to "expect any presents under the tree." Sorry Cavalier fans, hope you saved those receipts on those Marcus Banks jerseys you stole from Marshalls.

Mike Brown should be fired.

Why? Winning 50 games in his rookie year with a mediocre support cast wasn't good enough for you? He's the only guy other than Pop who could have this team playing defense the way they do.
