In hindsight the celts/cavs trade ...

look spretty good for the Cavs. I was watchign them tonight against the lakers. I think having Kedrick Brown and Eric williams in the starting lineup is exactly what the Cavs needed. Williams gives them a tough nose defender who can score some on offense when needed. Kedrick gives LeBron an athletic swingman who can get out and run with LeBron and finish. He is lookign better now that he is getting more consistant minutes with the Cavs.

For the celtics, this trade will look better if davis starts getting 30 min a game. HE brings a new athleticness to the celtics that they were lacking. He should be able to be an awesome defender since he seems very very quick. HE does get the shortstick from the officials alot though. He gets calls that officials would never dream making on others players. That goes right along with my theory that NBA officials are terribly biased and are the worst officials in all of the major sports.

Chris Mihm has surprised me by showing off some good dunks over some other big men. I did not expect him to be able to finish like that. I am impressed and find him to appear tougher than Battie, so that would be an improvment.

This trade coudl turn out to be good for both teams.
