Hear me out though - he's already a legit scoring option. Say what you want about the scrubby Cavs, but the guy still put up 24/3/4 on 47.5% FG. 1.6 treys on 4.4 attempts (37.5% 3fg) and 81.5% FT (6.4 attempts). Averages a steal a game, but also is a supreme fiesty chivato.
Cavs certainly don't seem wedded to him, and given they'll likely have another high pick and he's coming up for extension kinda talk, I could see a trade.
Wild thoughts...Sexton and Love for Herro, Igoudala, Dragic and Achiuwa? Obviously Iggy and Gogi won't be long for the roster, so it's really about getting back rookie salaries that fit better.
Sexton
Robinson
Butler
Love
Adebayo
Love would expire in 2023, which at present is the same offszn as Jimmy if he took up his PO (it's possible Jimmy negotiates an extension though...but if not, that's the reload offszn). Mind you, I'm still trying to work out if Love can actually play anymore or not. Is it a case of the Blake Griffin's (e.g. guy doesn't want to be there anymore and gives minimal effort), or is he just old af and broken down?
Cavs would deserve the scold that they would get for that trade-- I don't see it.
Sexton will have to force his way out (unless CLE gets a good pick back in return) imo
:)
