I'd guess it's for the Lakers' first rounder.
EDIT: Yeah, it is. Lakers needed a PG so it was a deal they had to make.

Ok, now that at least makes sense. I don't agree with it from the Cavs end, but I can see the logic.

Including Walton would have been ridiculously good for the Lakers.

That wasn't in the link 1 minute ago. I finally gave up and edited Walton out of the title, then the article updated and he popped in. Title back.
Extremely good for LAL, although in light of the Portland trade, I will simply call it decent.
