Shams: 13-year Veteran Anderson Varejao Plans to Sign with Cleveland Cavaliers

[JB2]

That's one way to distract from the Kevin Porter Jr. failure

[Dadouv47]

some kind of farewell for Varejao?

Don't get why but I love it. Varejao always gave everything on the court.

To provide veteran leadership and replace Kevin Love who will likely be out for the season due to some "injury".

They’re thanking him for what? Starting at PF in the 07 Finals?

[CM17]

Only makes sense as a thank you deal. There's only one available roster spot and that is supposed to go to Kabengele. Doubt they will waive someone for him.

Well, I know two years ago he was still playing in Brazil. Probably is retiring for good and moving back to Cleveland.

Ah the Udonis Haslem laundering method

I think its haslem wearing a varajao disguise so he can double dip those sweet NBA checks.

Varejao chasing that farewell tour?

The onion?

[RookieStar]

What?? Errr... can we sign Penny and Jameer as well? Farewell tanking tour and all..

[BoatsNZones]

Just a thank you deal. Nothing more to look into

Exactly. May have needed a check and they had a slot to fill? Although it looks as if the Blazers are still paying him $2 mil a year somehow (good work if you can get it...). This does also allows him to retire a Cav fwiw.

I hope they sign Boobie Gibson as well. Anything to stop him from making music.

[Edrees]

Wait, he's only a 13 year veteran?

[TheDiesel36]

This is soooo random

I literally thought this thread got bumped from 15 years ago or something when I first saw it.

Moving back to Cleveland? He's already in a 3rd world country, why would he move to another one? At least Brazil has beaches (and some of the hottest babes on the planet).

Isaiah Thomas in shambles

[chrbal]

I never thought anyone would make less sense then Miami having Haslem still being on the active roster, I was wrong.
