    Ken Blaze-USA TODAY Sports The Cavs looked sharp in their first game after the All-Star break. The Cleveland Cavaliers got back at it Thursday night, searching for their first win of the regular season against the Chicago Bulls and in the first game without Anderson Varejao as a member of the roster since 2004.

The premier free agents never had to consider the notion of taking up residency on Lake Erie's shores.  Instead, the Indians' offseason moving and shaking -- or, perhaps more appropriately, their wiggling and twitching -- came in the form of one-year commitments to veteran position players Mike Napoli and Rajai Davis. Napoli is expec..
