    Larry's just in a bad situation in Cleveland. He doesn't fit. It happens.

    Doesn't Hughes make like $14 million a year? What a waste of cash.

    Michael Redd told them no when they wanted to sign him to a big deal...so they figured..."hey lets still sign someone, to show we're at least doing something"...Hughes had one good year do to the fact that he playin for a contract.

    The guy nearly makes the max, there's no excuse for shooting 35%.

    Rafer was shooting better last year from the perimeter. What he has done is be more efficient on drives. He's finishing better.

    Which makes their similar three-point shooting percentages even more sad.

    larry hughes has got to be one of the most overrated players ever offensively. the only thing he does well is get off his own shot. he's never been a good shooter. I don't know what the cavs were thinking.

    Is this the same guy who also made the CarlosLoozer.com website??

    It looks like Cavs fans have some serious issues.

    Why is he a bad fit/why is Cleveland a bad situation? His entire career, Hughes has played on teams that depended on perimeter scoring and steal-sparked fastbreaks. The Cavs don't run a system too disimilar than the Arenas Wizards, or Jamison Warriors. Unless you're suggesting that Hughes can only play well when he's part of that trio.

    His shots and opportunities haven't changed, but he's slacked on the defensive end some, and has sunk like a rock on offense. Lowest point production in a good 7 seasons. I honestly believe he just quit being scrappy on D, losing out on fastbreak opportunities, and his halfcourt offense game is being exposed.

    He was coming off a career year when they signed him. Remember they also signed Donyell Marshall during the summer after he had that incredible game with 9 three-pointers. This is also the team that was going to make Larry Brown their head coach and only changed their mind when public reaction went negative. They courted him while he was still coaching the championship-contending Pistons!

    The Cavs have very poor management. LeBron needs to leave that waste-dump of a frachise the first chance he can. Hard-luck Cleveland fans deserve better but they won't get it with the Cavs.
