The “Cleveland Plain Dealer” has reported that as far as Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown is concerned he has no desire what so ever to engage in any trades in the foreseeable future. Cleveland is in first place in the NBA Central Division with a record of 25-4, second best in the Eastern Conference behind the Boston Celtics, as well as the entire Association. The Cavaliers went through an off-season trade that brought point guard Mo Williams to the club from the Milwaukee Bucks. The addition of Williams along with Delonte West have solidified Cleveland’s back court. There has been speculation that the Cavaliers could possibly trade Wally Szczerbiak to acquire some additional help in the front court. Szczerbiak was put on the injured list on Saturday with a bruised right knee, and is expected to miss about a week.

Brown who took Cleveland to their first trip to the NBA Finals in 2007, is very satisfied with the current makeup of his team. His philosophy is it isn’t broken it should be left alone. He told reporters “Any time you have a team that is playing well, whether you have chemistry and whether you don’t, it’s is risky to break it up. We do have pretty good chemistry. That is something I don’t even think about doing right now.”
