Cleveland Cavaliers, Joe Smith reunion still possible: Cavaliers Insider

by Brian Windhorst/Plain Dealer

SAN ANTONIO -- As they search everywhere possible, there is a stark reality
 the Cavaliers have to deal with as they look for some way to plug the hole
left by Ben Wallace's broken leg.

The list of realistic options is short.

In fact, there appears to be just one player who could really help the Cavs
in a rotation role and that is Joe Smith. The Joe Smith who is still a member
of the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Several league sources said Friday that Smith and his agent, Dan Fegan, have
been talking to the Thunder about securing a buyout. The Cavs have expressed
interest, setting up what could be intensifying negotiations ahead of Sunday's
midnight deadline for players to be released and still be eligible to join
playoff rosters.

But with many factors at play, including the public positions on the matter
of Smith and Thunder coach Scott Brooks, it is far from a sure thing.

There are other players available who the Cavs could add to their roster, but
at the moment none seem to be more than third-string players or emergency
reserves. Lorenzen Wright has already secured that role for the Cavs.

The Cavs had some interest earlier in the season in veteran Austin Croshere,
but he has been cut three times this season. Earl Barron, who played for the
Miami Heat last season and played in Europe earlier this season, is also an
option but would be a question mark.

There have been some rumors than Rasho Nesterovic would seek a buyout from
the Pacers but a league source said that is not going to happen.

So unless there is a surprise release in the league elsewhere, the Cavs are
pretty much banking on Smith to get free.

"Hopefully something comes up where we can add another big because we could
use it," LeBron James said. "In the playoffs you need a lot of big bodies."

In the short term, the Cavs will rework their rotation and essentially turn
James into a power forward for much longer stretches. This was hard to do
when Zydrunas Ilgauskas was out with an injury earlier in the season because
Delonte West was also missing and James was more needed on the perimeter.

So James and Cavs coach Mike Brown are formulating plans to use James more
in the post in offensive sets and perhaps guarding opposing big men in the
trenches as well.

"I'm going to have to," James said. "I've got to help our bigs out."

Joe Smith 已經與雷霆談到買斷事宜了,失去大班的老東家騎士自然會是Smith落腳

的所在處.
