    Cavaliers add Marshall
    1:17 p.m.

    By Branson Wright
    Plain Dealer Reporter

    The Cavaliers continued to bolster their roster by reaching an agreement with free agent power forward Donyell Marshall on Tuesday.

    Marshall, according to sources, will sign a four-year deal worth between $20 and $25 million. Marshall, who played in Toronto last season, averages 12.4 points and 7.3 rebounds over his 11-year career.

    Marshall, guard Larry Hughes and center Zydrunas Ilgauskas are expected to officially sign free agent contracts with the Cavaliers on Friday, the earliest date free agents can sign with teams.

    Ferry is doing a great job so far. LeBron has to be excited about this. All they need now is a solid PG.

    They don't have much money left after signing Marshall. I wonder what they'll do now.

    Won't they play Hughes at PG, most likely?

    Or maybe he and James will share point duties.

    Aren't they still going after Marko Jaric? Can't they still afford him?

    No. They only had ~$6M left and it looks like they just spent it on Marshall.

    Larry Hughes
    Lebron James
    Donyell Marshall
    Zydrunas Ilgauskas

    not a bad group of guys to build your team around. The Cavs improved quite a bit this offseason, they're gonna be good.

    Maybe. But as of this article this morning, they still wanted a starting PG.

    They are in the market for a starting point guard, they want to upgrade the power forward position, and they still need overall depth. The problem is, after officially signing center Zydrunas Ilgauskas and guard Larry Hughes on Friday, they'll only have between $6 million and $8 million (depending on where the salary cap falls) to get all of that accomplished.

    Now that they have Marshall, it will be interesting to see if they try for some sort of trade involving Gooden.

    Excellent signing. It should certainly be enough to put them into the playoffs now.

    The Cavs are addressing key needs in their 8-man rotation.

    that's true. but what teams have gotten worse?
    i think the clippers and sonics have, the wizards, the grizzlies (although hakim warrick was a great pick, imo), the suns (if they lose JJ), the bulls (if they lose curry),

    Luke Jackson's back injury seems to have healed. He had a good Summer League showing and the Cavs team went 6-0.

    I guess the plan for Cleveland is to now try to move Gooden for a starting point or for a trade excemption from a team like Atlanta once they strike out again in free agency and have tons of leftover capspace which could be used to take Gooden without having to send somebody back to Cleveland. Assuming Cleveland used up their remaining caproom on Marshall, all they now have to work with are minimum salary slots.

    If you're Ferry do you "rent-a-Payton" for a two year deal with team option for the second year?

    He's a point forward - they still run smaller guards.

    Last time I check, JMac is not a bad PG. He has one of the best Assists to Turnover ratio in the league. He had a bad year last year overally though. However Eric Snow, Larry Hughes, Jeff McInnis, and Lebron can all play some point.
    McInnis is an unrestricted free agent. And they aren't talking about re-signing him.

    Yeah, I'm also thinking he won't be coming back.... him and snow aren't pretty happy in CLE.
