Hi Getthesenets,

I hope that all is well with you!

Nothing major from what I hear from the various beat reporters. It sounds as if Love's knee might be a serious concern. But the Cavs are strapped and really cannot make an impactful move. I'm still scratching my head why LeBron complained a few weeks ago when he knows fully that a big trade can't happen.

The Oakley reaction has been very much in his favor, not just locally but nationally. We are glad to have the good Dolans running the Indians rather than the disaster that is the Knicks. They've been dysfunctional since the Isaiah Thomas fiasco, followed by Carmelo and Phil Jackson.

I'm sure Oakley is not innocent in all this, but it appears (for now) that Dolan has the thinnest skin this side of Donald Trump.
