Mo Williams, Antawn Jamison likely to stay Cavs after deadline

"With the NBA's trading deadline less than a week away, the Cavaliers have cast lines out across the league. Now they're sitting back waiting to see if anyone bites.

There's a good possibility no one will.

Despite being one of the more active teams, the uncertainty surrounding the collective bargaining agreement and the likelihood of a lockout after the season is hindering the Cavs' ability to maneuver before Thursday's 3 p.m. deadline.

Barring the unforeseen, Antawn Jamison and Mo Williams will both be Cavaliers after the deadline, according to multiple league sources. Williams is still due about $17 million for the next two seasons and has been injured most of this year, and Jamison's

$15 million salary for next season has scared off potential suitors.

The possibility of a hard cap and the overall uncertainty of how the salary cap will be structured in the new CBA has left teams hesitant to take on large contracts. Not to mention both Jamison and Williams have defensive issues, and both are having the worst shooting seasons of their careers.

Two players drawing the most interest are Anthony Parker and Ramon Sessions, but the Cavs could keep both players for varying reasons. Sessions is only 23 and blossoming into an important piece in the Cavs' rebuilding efforts."
