Gibson a nice fit for Cavs bench

The Cavaliers solidified their bench today with Boobie Gibson’s signing. For the next five years, he can play that role as a knockdown shooter that teams need to come in the game when it’s established the other team is double-teaming the star. If Gibson was 15-20 pounds heavier and an inch taller, he might be a starter. As it stands now, his body is too frail to play good enough defense for an entire game against some of the point guards on the better teams in the Eastern Conference. It was a good signing, and it will further allow the Cavaliers to let the core group Danny Ferry put together in the middle of the season last year mature. They never really learned how to play with each other well enough to do some damage last year. That should change by opening tip in November.
