The list of candidates to replace Jim Paxson in Cleveland is literally growing by the minute.

Several executives who already are in top jobs might want to make the move to Cleveland.  They include Portland GM John Nash, Denver GM Kiki Vandeweghe, Minnesota GM Kevin McHale, Seattle GM Rick Sund, as well as former Toronto GM Glen Grunwald.

Many lesser names might attract Gilbert as well, such as Dennis Lindsey who is the Houston Rockets vice president of basketball operations and Lakers assistant GM Ronnie Lester.
