Ehhh that’s it? Only the Cavs made it exciting with all the moves

I’m so disappointed to see the Cavs improve their roster. They sent out a bunch of trash and got back some decent pieces.

Would Joe Johnson get bought out? How has he been this year in Utah?

If I’m DJ I don’t end up like Blake having my expiring being dealt anywhere. Should opt out and choose his landing place. Can’t believe the clips didn’t move him for anything.

This, it's ridiculous and almost seems fixed. Oh well I guess we'll get to see Cavs/Warriors for the hundredth time again.

I don't think DJ should opt out... I don't see anyone giving him $24 million for 1/year anymore... or anything close to that.

NBA has been rigged for some time now.

I think he will get close, but I am sure he's looking at a 3-4 year deal in the $20 range. 3/60 seems about right for a one trick pony.

Looking at it realistically the Cavs really were the only team willing to take on future money (Clarkson and Hill) and also give up a 1st round pick. Both the capspace and picks are at a premium in this league now.

Cavs didn't improve much by this trade, but i appreciate the attempt to change something

They improved tremendously. Removed deadweight/egos/fossils/net negatives in IT/Wade/Crowder/Shump/Frye and added young, defensive minded wings that can also score (other than Nance)

As Cavs fan i hope so. Maybe i think like i said because i was romantically attached at the reunion of LBJ and D Wade, the duo Jae and IT, and a D-Rose come back magically at his best times. That wasn't work, that's why i'm not enthusiastic, but i hope these fresher guys can help the team to find itself again

Trade deadline has not been kind to us so far

lol sames. I am a HR Director but my interviews that I do are all virtual interviews, not in person....and every interview I did today I had Woj's twitter page in the background and my phone was going blowing up after every Cleveland trade. Such a unproductive day.

I think otherwise and that you guys got much more dangerous.

Giving up D. Rose and Crowder for Hill and Rodney Hood was a win.

IT who was never a good fit next to Lebron and Channing Frye who is in his latter years for Jordan Clarkson and Larry Nance was a huge WIN! Those Young (EX laker) boys are hungry!
Which leads to me to think what a huge gamble on the Lakers FO part.
I get clearing cap space for the home run this summer but if that fails then what?
You just gave up huge pieces in your young exciting youth core.

Giving up D. Wade for a 2nd rounder was the only loss but it was made for personal reasons imo.

I expect the Cavs to be rejuvenated and exciting again as they should make the Finals again this season. (Or Course pending on KLOVE's health) Young additions who are hungry and skilled where I feel they will complement LBJ well.
