Ferry Gets LBJ A Point Guard Cavaliers Trade For Mo Williams

Posted by Jeff Sack under NBA Trades 

If you are a regular reader of mine, you know all too well how I have have campaigned for Cleveland Cavaliers General Manager Danny Ferry to acquire a quality point guard. As much as the Cavaliers have improved during his tenure as G.M. I have always felt that the team needed that quarterback on the floor to run the offense. “ESPN.com” NBA beat writer Chris Broussard is reporting that Cleveland has acquired point guard Mo Williams in a three way trade with the Milwaukee Bucks and “The Team Formerly Known As The Seattle SuperSonics“.

The trade which we told you was being discussed on Monday Reports Out Of Cleveland Are That Cavaliers Have Interest In Bucks Williams have Cleveland sending guard Damon Jones to Milwaukee, and veteran forward Joe Smith will go to the team now located in Oklahoma City. The Bucks will receive guard Luke Ridnour, and forward Adrian Griffin from OKC, Oklahoma City will also get forward Desmond Mason in the swap.

Williams was a second round pick by the Utah Jazz in the 2003 NBA Draft. He has been with the Bucks since the 2004-2005 campaign. He averaged 17.2 points, 6.3 assists, and 3.5 rebounds in 66 games (all starts) this past season. This is a big step in the right direction for Cleveland. According to my sources from Cleveland, the Cavaliers want to retain restricted free agent guard Delonte West. Danny get Delonte signed, and you will not here any complaints from this corner for quite a while!
