Cleveland: Porter

Portland: Reath

Portland gets an extra year of control out of Porter and gets their 3rd PG to cover when Scoot or Holiday get hurt

Cleveland has no backup Center and Reath has a 1 year contract that can fill that void.

It’s fine

Meh, I'd probably move RW3 first. Can't count on him being healthy if he's needed.

With Garland missing the beginning of the season with the toe surgery and Jerome gone, the Cavs probably need the PG more than the C.

I disagree. They have Ball, Tyson, and Mitchell to handle the ball even if Garland misses the start of the season. Regardless, they could make this trade whenever he comes back if both teams want to wait.

Tyson and Mitchell aren’t PGs and Ball’s injury history means you shouldn’t count on him.

I'm keeping Porter, i think he's going to play a lot this year...hopefully he's up for the challenge.

If legal, I'd do it.

In his time in Portland I have to wonder how much has been real injury and how much was tanking or giving other guys minutes? I imagine that a lot of the time, if it were a playoff series, Williams would have been on the court.

Personally I expect him to get a lot of minutes this season for us.

BTW I am ok with this trade.

Tyson played point guard in college. Regardless, if you don’t consider him a natural point guard both him, Mitchell, and Tyson operate as primary ball handlers.
