CLE POR

Stole the premise from Spens1

McCollum, Leonard for Hill, JR, #8

CJ is a hometown kid that can be electric with Bron or without.

Blazers can use the salary reduction and Hill is still solid with Dame.

I just don't see any way the Cavs take back Leonard given the fact they're in the repeater tax.

I could potentially buy it for the Cavs since I think McCollum would be great as a pg, would give them a deadly offensive threat and creator off the dribble that they lack since Irving left and he is only 26 and locked up for 3 more years so he could be built around or redealt if Lebron doesn't stick around (I doubt they'll know Lebron's status prior to draft).

Don't see Portland being interested in a draft pick at this stage of their development. It's a big talent downgrade for a team that is built to win sooner rather than later. I could see them dealing McCollum potentially but not for a rebuilding package. Maybe bringing in a 3rd team to give Portland more win-now pieces for the pick could work but I'm not certain what that is.

Middleton really looks like he fell of a cliff to me.
