Remember that one guy who we signed for $60 million, got injured a ton, and when he did play made a mockery of the game of basketball?

Yeah, that guy, what was his name again?

He put up 20 shots a game, only to make roughly 30 percent of them...on a good night.
Larry something, right?

Ah well, I can’t recall.

Mo Williams has made me forget everything about that disaster.

The first year Cavalier has been a God-given saint to this years championship contending team.

After somewhat of a “slow start” this season, Mo has been banging on all cylinders averaging career highs in points per game (18.1), three-point percentage (43.8) and free-throw percentage (93.6.)

While he may not be a true point guard like a Chris Paul or Rajon Rondo, this guy can shoot and actually hit shots when we need them.

He also doesn’t embarrass himself bringing the ball down the court or when attempting lay-ups (see: Eric Snow.)

In fact, Mo has perfected what is now called the Mo Flow, which is his running floater a few feet away from the basket.

It’s the first time since Andre Miller that the Cavaliers have had a point guard who can impact a game so positively. Although back then, Miller’s services and accomplishments were completely wasted by garbage players.

Mo has taken so much pressure off LeBron James and has allowed our team to move the ball like we haven’t see in years.

He isn’t selfish, doesn’t clash with teammates and he has taken the role of second fiddle to LBJ perfectly, a role that Larry (what was his last name again?) or Ricky Davis couldn’t accept.

At this point in the season, it seems Mo is getting better game by game.

Even on a rare off night Wednesday where he only shot 4 of 17 from the field, he hit the go ahead three-pointer with 6 seconds left, then two free-throws to seal the deal.

I really expect him to flourish in the playoffs, a player that emerges into a true bonafide star when this season is all said and done with.

I don’t think fans have really come to appreciate or realize how important Mo has been to this team’s record breaking season.

The only thing important thing about Larry is, no one can remember him.

That is something fans should appreciate.
