The Cavs have no one who can slash to the rim besides LeBron. He is going to be most of the source of the points, assists, rebounds, and foul shots on that team. They completely rely on him. They can give teams like Boston and Detroit fits, but I can't see Cleveland making it out the East again.

As a Cavs fan, I really do love this trade. But the reason I like it so much isn't because of Ben really, but because of what Wally and West bring to the table on offense. Both can stretch the floor and we needed a PG and I'm happy with West there. The Cavs should be very deep once they get healthy and get Gibson, Varejao, and Pavlovic back. At full health, I can see the following being the Cavs' starting lineup: C-Z/Varejao PF-Wallace/Smith SF-Lebron SG-Pavlovic/Wally/Gibson PG-West/Gibson/Jones Looking at potential playoff runs, I love what this team can bring to the table now. I'm hoping for another exciting run through the East. I think Ben is the most important part of the deal. A guy like Wallace creates more opportunies and possessions for an offense through his offensive rebounds, steals and the such. Cleveland's offense is somewhat slow so those extra possessions could be big... hopefully LeBron can capatalize on the opportunities.
