Figured I'd start this thread up rather than shut the original idea thread down. Offseason ideas go here. Thanks - Cap

OrangeBlueSkies' post starts here:

Kevin Knox, 19, 21 for Colin Sexton? Is this not possible? Who says no?

Maybe if you and two second round along with that they might budge, But I highly doubt it they never trade there young players

Cleveland really has no incentive to trade their starting PG, this is a pipe dream

Cavs want absolutely nothing to do with that.

Sexton is not the answer at pg. Get CP3, Lowry or Conley... Trust in Leon

At minimum it would be Dayton's favorite homeboy Obi Topin + probably IQ + 19 and/or 21

FWIW

Leon was his agent, if Sexton is on the market we're going to go after him :lol:

Agreed. Not sure why they would want to trade Darius Garland.

Why would anyone want Sexton? A player who was hated so much on his awful team that players on his own team would call him out for how selfish a player he is..I wouldn’t want him for free..people need to stop looking at stats and actually watch the player play but also pay attention to why player would be available in the first place

Collin Sexton apparently isn’t the most popular player in the Cavaliers locker room.

The 22-year-old guard, who’s in his third season with the Cavs, has reportedly frustrated teammates with his style of play.

“Various Cavs players still grow frustrated by the way Sexton dominates the ball, and opponents taunt them by saying during games, ‘you know he’s not going to pass you the ball,'” according to The Athletic.

I also think this is more likely and I still do it. If we could hang onto IQ and throw in #32 I'd like it even more.

So you are trading basically 3 1st plus last years lottery pick for a player the cavs one of the worst teams in the league don’t want? Again I wouldn’t take him for free

Yes. I am not a fan of Obi or late first round picks. I like Collin Sexton's toughness and he had all-star caliber production this year (24+ppg on solid shooting numbers).

See above about what his teammates thought of him..I don’t want him anywhere near the knicks, and I reiterate I wouldn’t take him for free

This board has a fetish for stupid point guards. We already had DSjr

Solid intel.

I'm not advocating. I'm just pointing out the synchronicity between Sexton & Leon + Obi & Ohio. As selfish as Sexton may be, keep in mind he'd be replacing Elfrid Payton.

If it costs Obi + a late FRP to replace Elf with Sexton, I wouldn't be mad at it.

I predict that in the next few years you'll find that you think differently (especially about not taking him for free). The Cavs were horrible and Sexton is clearly not the type of guy who can carry a team on is own (at least at this point in his career) but I believe he is still one of the top young PG's in the league. The frustrations of losing can make people say a lot of bad things about a player who otherwise gets praised when you're winning (i.e. Russell Westbrook, Pascal Siakam, Kevin Love, Devin Booker, etc.). Sexton, RJ and Randle is a legit core of young players. I'm tired with our fake @ss "young talent" (i.e. Kevin Knox, Alonzo Trier, Willy Hernangomez). Again, I'm willing to bet that you'll admit that you are wrong on Sexton at some point in the future (as soon as his team finds success).
