I think this is the most realistic base if Cleveland want to make a huge change but it’s more realistic to trade just one of Garland or Allen and just retool the team.


I'm off the opinion that if you trade one, you should trade both and get as much value in return as you can. Also, Allen/Mobley makes Mitchell/Garland work and vice versa.

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.

You definitely have a better understanding of the Cavs than I do but for a team that got that good in the regular season I would generally prefer a tweak rather than a big changes.

You could definitely be right though.

I'd run it back. We were 0-2 without Garland in that Pacers series so the idea that we'll get better by trading him leaves me skeptical we're better trading just him.
