Holy crap, KG is a bust! It's over in the leagues where I picked him in the first round! I'm taking trade offers right now, maybe I can get Kirilenko in return. If I'm lucky. Pierce has all the points, but not much else. I know that will change over the year, so if you've got Pierce, enjoy points. Look at Delonte West, getting nearly 17 minutes in the first half and hasn't missed a shot since pregame warmups. What are you waiting for in your shallow leagues - pick him up now! Seriously, West could be a nifty player on your team if you need a PG but have punted assists, as those steals could pick up, and he could approach 50% FG in the Cavs offense (both plays, LeBron left, LeBron right).
There's something interesting in the Cavs boxscore from half 1. Ben Wallace played 13 minutes, got 3 boards and a blocked shot. No way in H, E, double upside down sevens should Wallace be anywhere near your squad, but he picked up some serious PT, didn't smother the boards, and took no shots. That means Cleveland's O has to come from the other 4, which is nice. Of course, a lot will go to Bron-Bron, but that's plenty of pie for Mo Williams and Delonte West and Ilgauskas. You know this coming in to the Cavs this year, but watching it play out on TNT and Yahoo boxscores makes it all real. The non-LeBron Cavs are players to watch all year, especially the 2nd half as there schedule is much more fantasy H2H friendly, with 4 gamers abound.

Ignore nearly everything I said regarding Delonte West and the Cleveland offense. Obviously Boobie Gibson wishes he could be good as he thinks he is, and West has got to get more aggressive. No reason he didn't do anything on the floor in half 2.
It looks like Wallace will get 1st half minutes, Varejao 2nd half minutes. Andy does do enough good to merit a serious play.
