Zach Edey is going to be a guy that NBA teams can trust to contribute in a big way on offense, it'll just be extremely matchup dependent whether he can stay on the floor on defense.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Has Been Waiting For This

by Kevin Yeung

Jaime Jaquez Jr. is playing meaningful playoff minutes as a rookie, showing that craft has perhaps become an underrated quality in the draft, compared to more traditional traits such as wingspan, athleticism or shooting.

Panic! In The NBA Playoffs

by John Wilmes

After a dull weekend of Game 1s, a doubleheader between Knicks/Sixers and then Nuggets/Lakers delivered an excess of drama. You never know when a basketball cult might be formed or broken.

Basketball's Best Weekend: A Review

by John Wilmes

On the Cavaliers doing to the Magic what the Knicks did to them last season, Milwaukee saving up their competitive juices, New York's rabid hustle cult, Minnesota vanquishing their playoff inexperience, a nerve-inducing game in OKC and more.

Is this crazy?

CLE gets McConnell and Noel

Delly lite as the new backup PG and the athletic rim protector they need, plus some tax relief. Still have their TPE's to pursue guard help if they want.

Irving/McConnell/Felder
Shumpert/McRae/D Jones
James/R Jefferson/J Jones
Love/Frye/C Jefferson
Noel/Thompson/Andersen

PHI gets rights to Osman, contract of Williams, Carter, CLE unprotected 2021 and 2023 1sts

Solid return for Noel and clear the big man jam. Another well respected vet for the locker room.

Bayless/Rodriguez/Barber
Henderson/Stauskas/TLC
Covington/Grant/Carter
Simmons/Saric/Holmes
Okafor/Embiid/Brand

MEM gets Dunleavy for Carter

Shooting for nothing.

Conley/Baldwin/Wroten
Allen/Daniels/Adams
Parsons/Dunleavy/Ennis
Randolph/Davis/Martin
Gasol/Wright/Green

I don't see the Cavs giving up 2 firsts even that far in the future

Rather have expiring Carter than 2 years of Dunleavy, and I didn't think MEM would care about the extra year since they could use the shooting, that's all.

Especially that far out into the future. Also, we'd have to ship out Shump or Frye to re-sign Noel.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.
