What can the Cavs get J-Rich for? 

Post#1 » by LeBron+CavsFan » Sat May 24, 2008 2:08 am

As a Cav fan, I'd do anything it takes to bring in an SG like Richardson. We have a ton of expirings, a decent veteran, Eric Snow, 4 youngs with potential, and we'd be willing to take in salary just to get J-Rich. LeBron James is not in any trades for obvious reasons, nor is Zydrunas Ilgauskas, because he only has a couple years left, and the Cavs are honaring him, by letting him remain a Cav. Any thoughts?

I don't think the Cavs have what it would take to obtain Swish from us.

Sorry.

Why would we want to trade J-Rich for anyone on the Cavs not named Lebron? It wouldn't work.

Sorry, I was just asking.

He is most Cavs fans #1 option, but if we can't get him we go for Redd, or Mike Miller.

Mods, I'm sorry for this topic. Feel free to lock.

No reason to lock as it was genuine question (I hope), not like you came here and asked for Swish/Okafor for Devin Brown/Billy Thomas deal.

Basically, outside of Lebron the Cavs roster is very very ordinary. I wouldn't mind having Joe Smith on the roster for some vet experience and I like Delonte West, but realisiticly they aren't even close to Swish talent-wise.

End of the day we need talent, we have the role players already established. The only way I'd like to see Eric Snow in Charlotte is on the bench dressed in a suit working with Brown.

The Cavs are a great team, but the guys that are good are too old. I'll trade you Earl Boykins for Damon though, cause Damon is the man.

Oh ya. I was just asking. I think the Bobcats are a very good team, and if I were a Cats fan, I'd want to keep J-Rich, too. If you guys draft Anthony Randolph, you will be very dangerous...

Felton
J-Rich
Wallace
Randolph
Okafor

Thats a great starting line-up, but you need some good role-players, too. We can give Joe Smith, and Daniel Gibson for something. Would you guys trade Okafor? He has family who live right by me.

I doubt the Cavs give up the players it would take to acquire Jason.

However, Dallas on the other hand would probably move one of the following combinations for Jason. Jason Terry and Brandon Bass or Josh Howard and Brandon Bass. It really just depends on what Charlotte is looking for!

I didn't think you would. Jason's contract is just not very appealing but Josh Howard may be of interest. It's not like Dallas has much depth on the bench so I basically threw a trade out there that was the most Dallas would probably offer.

Outside of Lebron I really don't think the Cavs have anything that the Bobcats desire which would be considered in a big trade . I think we did the Cavs a favor in the beginning of the season by offering Varejao that restricted free agent contract.

We scratched your back, and I think it's about time you scratched our back. Joe and Delonte would be nice, but they don't come close to getting Swish or Okafor.

For some reason when I looked at the Cavs roster I couldn't even bring myself to proposing anything bar a very minor trade. I'm guessing you wouldn't do a May/Harrington for Smith/08 2nd rounder deal.

Sorry, but your Cavs roster just doesn't have the tools (outside of Lebron which is just stupid asking for in the first place) for what your looking for from the Cats.
