Cleveland/Warriors 

Post#1 » by bgrep14 » Thu Nov 28, 2024 4:34 pm

What’a the trade difference between Okoro and Kuminga if both teams traded straight up? Okoro is locked into a pretty team friendly contract and Kuminga still requires an extension.

Probably too big for the Cavs to meet, and Kuminga doesn't shoot well enough to play with the core 4.

Yeah Okoro isn't really what we want or need; on the flip side, Kuminga isn't a good fit for Cleveland for the same reasons he's not cracking the starting lineup in GS (not a 3, unreliable outside shooter).

I doubt the Warriors would look at this. We need a different sort of player from Okoro.

This, Kuminga is a horrible fit with our starters.

Cavs need a big wing defender who can shoot, not another 4.
