Here is real GM's page on the surprise,.

So are they saying that Cleveland knows who this surprise player is but no one else does? ???

maybe its Lebron?   ;)

I don't know.  Having Lebron on the team would be nice, but who would you want to cut to get him?  I think I like all of our guys a little better.

Joe Smith is signing with the Cavaliers. Could be as soon as Wednesday. We couldn't wait a week?

Sure we could have. We could have waited a week and been real ticked off that he signed with the Cavs for more money which he has intended to do all along.

 Come on people! Don't you get it?! When we were trying to have him come over before signing Moore he was content staying there and didn't think he would get bought out... Now that the Cavs need him he makes it happen. We never had a shot at signing the guy unless the Cavs came out and said they didn't want him. Then just maybe.

Agreed.

"Sacramento has reportedly had discussions with veteran forward Drew Gooden regarding a possible buyout.

Gooden's ability to join a contender will close on Sunday night.

If the rumors are true, San Antonio and Cleveland are expected to show interest in the forward."

Sources close to the Cavs saying Joe Smith release is as good as done - expected to join the team Wednesday. Still awaiting confirmation obviously.

joe smith gives the cavs some minutes off the bench..nothing major. if it is coming down to joe smith for the cavs to win it all then they arent as strong as they seem
