I think there is a stronger possibility Tristan is relocated than people think esp after the Nance extension.
Not sure what he would bring back right now given his pay scale so it probably wouldn't be the first domino...but
I also don't think they are paying Thompson Nance and Love as much as they are now for very long.

Hill (or an outside chance on JR just because I think that the Pelicans may be looking to offload Solomon Hill). Honestly, I kind of want to hold onto Hill until Sexton is ready to start but I don't want Sexton playing in the same back court as Clarkson in that second unit so I'm conflicted.

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.

Nothing's going to happen quick, but I would consider JR gone, and Hill will be here next season if some contender isn't desperate for him like we were (I still don't even understand why we were, as much as I love him).

I feel like Nance is too small to be a full-time center.
