I think it’s totally unfair that after the Cleveland Cavaliers traded Zydrunas Ilgauskas to the Washington Wizards for Antawn Jamison, the Cavs get both players.  The 7-foot Ilgauskas, whose name means “long” in Lithuanian, was bought out by the Wizards and then resigned with the Cavs.  It’s not right – the rich get richer.  So the Cavs trade a two-time all-star, Big Z, for another two-time all-star, Antawn Jamison, and then get Z back.  If the Cavs win it all I don’t think it will be an exaggeration to say the title will be tainted.
