Is this why LeBron took time off? To activate "GM" mode?

Anyways, excellent move from the Cavs. They've been on a roll lately.

2 future 1sts for Mozgov? Unless 1 of them is heavily, heavily protected...it's an overpay

This isn't legit until Game6 reports it.

So funny Carlisemo is on with SVP in the middle of this while talking Cavs.
Where the offseason has more buzz happens.

Who knows what they'll get on paper, but I think this means Denver will win the lottery next year.


HU? Because they gave up Mozgov? Lol. Even if you believe the NBA lotto is fixed and they reward teams... giving the Cavs a marginal big man does not qualify. If the Lotto is fixed... NYK will be winning it this year.

ehh, come to think of it...if its like the OKC pick and their own 2018 pick (top 20 protected or some ish)...its w/e. You got Lebron today, you do what you can to win right now. As long as it's not unprotected, its not a terrible deal

Very nice for Denver. I liked it for Cavs for one 1st not for 2.
