Fear The Links - 8/1

Cleveland Plain Dealer

Brian Windhorst writes about Hakim Warrick spurning the Cavs for the Bucks (and more money) and says the team is still looking for more help at power forward. He gives a few other team notes in his beat blog.
Michael Curry at Cavs HQ weighs in on the LeBron v. Kevin Durant debate, which has circulated many basketball blogs. Simple analysis: statistically not even close. Durant is a better shooter, but that's it -- LeBron easily beats him everywhere else.

The News-Herald

Bob Finnan has a nice article on Jamario Moon.

Around The Internet

Smooth at Cavalier Attitude has a preview of the Cavs' 2009-10 schedule which he says he got from a "league source."
John Krolik at Cavs: The Blog writes about Darnell Jackson.
ESPN.com's TrueHoop blog looks at an interesting question: will Yao Ming's absence this coming season hurt the NBA's global audience (which is largely centered in China)?
This is also not about the Cavs, but FoxSports.com's Charley Rosen gives his list of the NBA's most overrated players.

I like the Reggie Miller vs. Jordan analogy to the Durant vs. LeBron debate.

Charley Rosen’s Notable Overrated Players:
Chris Bosh
Kevin Garnett
Chris Paul

What does he want from these guys? Not everyone can be LeBron James.

Yeah his list of players that are “overrated” includes both very good players and players that no one thinks are any good (thus being “rated” quite low, almost too low to be anything but underrated).

Bosh and Paul are

overrated as for Garnett he is underrated if that is possible.

I’m DONE!!! I don’t think words can express my anger, I’m officially done with this team. They traded one of the few guys I still liked and one of the few guys that even cared about team anymore. I thank God that I just moved to N.C. so I don’t have to watch the Indians b/c I would rather watch a 24 hour marathon of Jon & Kate Plus 8 than watch this pathetic excuse for a team.

We really have turned into the team from Major League except our owner isn’t a hot cougar, it’s an old, wrinkly man who has similar characteristics to Ebeneezer Scrooge.
