The longer the Delonte West ordeal plays out, the more the Cavaliers might get used to Anthony Parker as their startingshooting guard.
Parker, signed to a two-year contract in the offseason, has lived up to expectations through the first week of training camp.
The 6-foot-6, 210-pounder was a starter in all three previous years in Toronto. When asked if it mattered to him whether he starts or comes off the bench, he gave the politically correct answer.
“It doesn’t matter,” Parker said. “Either way, I’m going to have some opportunities. I’ll be on the floor with LeBron (James) or Shaq (Shaquille O’Neal) regardless.”
