Trade not so good

The Cleveland Cavaliers were in first place in the NBA before they made a trade. They had just got comfortable playing with their newly acquired center Shaquille O’Neal from the offseason. They were playing very well and gelling nicely. Then the Cavaliers then went and made a trade for a very good power forward from the Washington Wizards. Antawn Jamison was a former all-star and was having a very nice year for the Wizards. It looked like this might make the Cavaliers unstoppable and take them right to a championship. That is not the way the trade has been so far though. The Cavaliers have not won a game since the trade has gone down. They have lost two and won zero games since acquiring Jamison from the Wizards. Jamison has not played very well himself in the first game he went 0-12 shooting. He did do better in his second game but it is clear that the Cavaliers have a lot of work to do. This trade was supposed to make them unstoppable but instead it is making things harder for them. Once they gel as a team again maybe it will all work out for the Cavaliers. They had their struggles at the beginning of the year also when they were trying to incorporate Shaquille O’Neal into their game. That could be the very thing that is going on this time also. This might just be a growing period for the Cavaliers but once they are gelled and form chemistry they might be better than ever. If the Cleveland Cavaliers can do this and create some chemistry between themselves they will be the best team in the NBA. The trade will have worked and it will insure that they will become NBA champions.
