Someone PLEASE explain to me why we got rid of Delonte West

Maybe Mr Presti has a thing where he doesn't want players who constantly get injured and miss chunks of seasons?

I am a Cavs fan but more than that I am a huge Delonte and Jameer fan going back to their days at St Joe's. It's true Delonte is a combo guard and his best success has come this year playing the SG role with Mo as PG. This is similar to the succes Delonte and Jameer had in college during their undefeated senior season. Actually Mo and LeBron are the primary ballhandlers on the first team and Delonte is the primary ballhandler on the 2nd team. The Cavs have had so much success having 3 ballhandlers in their starting lineup. Delonte is one of my favorite players in the NBA but if you kept him you still would've needed a PG in your lineup to play next to him. I think you should've kept Delonte and traded Earl but that's all water under the bridge now.

I believe both Westbrook and Lopez will have very nice careers. Those two along with Mayo were my 3 favorite players in the draft last year although Rose and Beasley were getting most of the hype.
