That would be a shortsighted disaster for them.

Too much salary.


I think we could match salaries with some combination of Delly/Telly+. Hill would have been a really nice piece coming off the bench for us.


I agree, but I'm not sure Sac would be interested in Telly/Delly and or Snelly.

I don't know how other than the first to LAL people don't like the end result of the CLE deals so far. Crowder and IT were a giant flop in CLE and they completely transformed their team and still have the BKN pick.

I'm a lot more worried about them now, then I was an hour ago

NBA must've passed a rule that only Cleveland can make trades at the trade deadline.

Again lebron only thinking of himself, it's a win win for him. He can now roll with younger dudes in the playoffs. Should he lose, which he will, he will simply join the lakers who have started their cap space process.
In reference to our title winning year

I kind of agree. Not totally sure this will work, didnt really fix their frontcourt issues, but their previous roster configuration sure as hell wasn't getting them anywhere. Just getting IT the **** out of there will kelp a bit. Apart from giving up their 1st they didn't surrender anything particularly valuable., they still have the BKN pick which is the most important thing for them. Idk, it might be rearranging deck chairs but Lebron is still worth rearranging them for imo.

I actually thinks this gives the team some young pieces to build around while improving this year.

Wow. No idea what to expect out of Cle. Most of their deals feel like dumping older players so when LeBron leaves at least the team looks a little younger. And as constructed they weren't going anywhere. But still. WOW.
