Trading for Aldrige vs IT

I am just curious if anyone wanted an Aldrige for Kyrie trade here after the end of last season.

Eh, I think it would've panned out similarly to the IT deal but better since we wouldn't have traded him; he and Love would've overlapped a bit.

No didn't have that kind of value really because Love would have had to be shipped out, and LMA was not playing like he has this season with Leonard out.

Isn't Love on the trade block 24/7 anyways?

I wanted, and want, no part of LMA on his contract. From the Cavs perspective, the Brooklyn pick is worth more than IT or LMA. Add in the fact that IT helped bring back Nance, and it's really a no brainer IMO.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.
