It does not appear that Cleveland will make many roster changes for the start of the season, so the question is, who steps up?

I expect Scott to ask Mo to do a lot more. If Mo can push the pace like Scott wants, I am interested to see what type of player Mo turns into. I expect Jamison to put up numbers similar to his Washington days, and I think Hickson will have a bump in productivity due to an increase in minutes as well as touches. I have also read that Scott has had a few talks with Gibson about having an expanded role.

Jamison - same offense and lack of talent around him as Washington. I'd expect his numbers to jump considerably.
Boobie - He'll average double digits in scoring this year because he and Mo will play a lot together.

You can't lose LeBron and West (presumably) and not add a wing. Whoever it is is going to score 12-15ppg.

Shaq.

Not to derail the thread but I wouldn't say that Caron Butler,Gil Arenas,Andray Blatche etc. qualifies as "lack of talent".

But maybe its just me.....


And as for AJ...he'll be much more effective assuming the offense is run through him.

lack of talent, no. lack of health, yes

Unfortunately, you're right.

Has there been any talks as to what type of role Danny Green will have this season? I like his size and defensive abilities as well as his ability to initiate an offense. If he can keep his turnovers down, and work on his shot, he seems like he could end up being a solid role player. What is our guard rotation going to consist of?

Session/Gibson
M.Williams/Parker/Green

M.Williams/Sessions
Parker/Gibson/Green

I was referring only to the first half of last season vesus his time with the Cavs. Blatche is a legitimate talent but Zero was out and Caron long gone.
I expect him to bounce back to 20-9 because he knows the offense and was basically handcuffed by LeBron-ball.
