TimTaylor751647545500 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Cavs land Shaq for Wallace, Pavlovic The Cleveland Cavaliers have reached an agreement in principle to acquire Phoenix Suns center Shaquille O’Neal(notes), multiple sources involved in the talks told Yahoo! Sports late Thursday night. Cleveland will send Ben Wallace(notes), Sasha Pavlovic(notes), the 46th pick in Thursday’s draft and cash to the Suns for O’Neal. Cleveland and Phoenix were both juggling multiple trade possibilities with other teams, with the Cavs involved with as many as six trade scenarios. Yet the disappointing Eastern Conference finals loss to the Orlando Magic left Cavs GM Danny Ferry with incredible pressure to accumulate talent around James in the final season prior to his 2010 free agency. James has blessed the O’Neal trade, especially because it should give his overmatched frontline a chance to compete with Dwight Howard in the playoffs. Ferry and Phoenix GM Steve Kerr are close friends and had talked off and on about a Shaq deal since the February trade deadline. O’Neal, 37, makes $21 million next season, and the Suns were determined to move him in a package that would save them money. Wallace made $14 million and could take a buyout to retire, and only $1.5 million of Pavlovic’s $4.9 million salary is guaranteed. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=AoHbZTJYCkyQ4oL_6TR2hUM5nYcB?slug=aw-shaq062409&prov=yhoo&type=lgns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowflake Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Its on like a pot of kneck-bones now... It is a short term solution but a great one. I believe if everyone stays healthy we will see LA in the finals next year. Expect Shaq to be in the best shape we have seen in the past 10 years...
