Cavs sent FOUR picks to Detroit for #30. What a bunch of morons. You have the least talented roster in the league, why would you need Keldon Johnson that badly? I guess they'll just suck until they land a few #1 picks in a row again.

Has KAT started playing defense yet?

Why create the extra cap space in moving Baynes if we’re going young?

We can take on bad contracts to acquire more picks which we can hold on to for dear life to trade for more future picks.


And in the process get allllll da assets

According to spotrac we have "practical" cap space of $38 million already.

Absorb it baby.

Worse comes to worst Yabu is owed 3 million, so we can do it right now no matter what the figure you think is.

Yabu + cap space or pure cap space.

No Cp3 please!!! :nonono:

A few years ago I would have laughed, but last two times they had cap space they got Horford and then Hayward. Durant would be have been nice, but oh well. Maybe they get him this time.

Why would Durant want to sign here lol

I have no idea why any player would want anything. Seems as likely as anything else. Maybe he likes Marcus Smart or something.

Keldon Johnson to San Antonio, great destination for him, if they can build him up, he and Murray could be their future backcourt


FWIW, this is written syntactically like a CHL post.

And now I'm wondering whether I've seen you two in the same place...

I keep getting excited about the cap space and then someone says Chris Paul.

We worked out both Porter Jr. and Horton-Tucker. Have seen a lot of Horton Tucker, and if he doesn't work on his body he is absolutely going to bust. But he is young and has a ton ton of upside with what's left in the draft. Anyone know how his workout was with us?

I saw him play a game in HS and he was chunky too. But he's only had 1 year in an NCAA strength program.
