Seems odd for the Cavs unless a Sexton trade is happening

Trying not to read into it too much as Rubio is a nice fit with either Sexton or Garland due to his size, but perhaps the addition of a guard tells us something about Sexton. Probably not.

I guess all that reported interest in Rubio was exaggerated....

MIN trying to avoid the tax or something?

Makes me sad, but oh well. Guess Minnesota really wanted to avoid the tax.

So long Colin Sexton.

Conversely I like this for Minny as a balancing move. Don’t like it for Rubio as he continues to just get flipped.

Exactly here. Like it for Minnesota.

Cleveland desperately needed some leadership and this should help. I may be misremembering, but wasn't Rubio not the biggest fan of Love? I seem to remember him calling him out in Minny at one point.

Cavs will play Sexton and Rubio together.

I liked Prince but I guess this was another Drummond situation where the price was so low we had to bite?

Uh the Drummond price wasn't low at all. You took on an addition huge year. This is a solid value deal for Cleveland. That absolutely was not and we all knew it at the time.

Updating op. The 2nd and cash going the wrong way originally, think Woj deleted.

Minnesota's top reporter is contradicting Woj. We will see.

So if this new report is true then Sexton has to be gone because they are spending money and assets on Rubio. And it certainly makes more sense as I have Rubio more valuable than Prince.

Who won the trade?
