Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
It’s fairly clear at this point the Cavs need a larger guard to play next Mitchell. Here are a few trade ideas for Garland what are the best offers for Garland. What would it take to get Dyson Daniels from Atlanta?
Orlando: Suggs, da Silva, 2025 1st, 2027 1st, 2029 1st
Nets: Johnson, Clowney, 2025 Nets pick, 2027 Knicks pick
Pelicans: Murray, Missi, Jones, and New Orleans 2025 pick (plus okoro)

Nets is fairly close IMO...
I wouldn't do the Pelicans deal if I was the Cavs
Defense wins draft lotteries!

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
Cavs cant aggregate salaries IIRC so I think the Pels deal is off the table. Definitely like the Orlando one the most but don't see that happening on either side.

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
Nets feels closer, but all three teams are good targets and I generally like the framework. I'd adjust down the offers (some more than others) but I like the overall direction.

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
I don't think Garland has this much value. I wouldn't be opposed to the Nets pursuing him, but not at this cost.

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
Is Garland Steph Curry?
Garland is an inconsistent player whose post-season career resembles Austin Reaves.

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
Atlanta isn’t giving up Dyson Daniels. I wouldn’t loop Atlanta and him into deals like this.

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
yeah these are all high, but he is the player to move. His salary is high enough for the Cavs to get back a replacement guard, and either duck aprons or fill another need. And there are definitely teams who would like to have him.
I just don't see teams paying this much for a guy who has put some nice RS numbers at times with the luxury of getting the 2nd best perimeter defender every single night, but hasn't consistently shown up in the biggest games. Heck even back in the Sexton days, Sexton was the guy stepping up at crunch time not Garland.

Re: Darius Garland Trade Proposal Ideas
As other said, this is a bit much for Darius Garland. Atleast 1 player included those other trades players are worth atleast late lottery pick themselves(Jalen Suggs is easily worth a top 10 pick). Ether one of the players needs to replace with a less valuable player or one of the picks get removed.

The bolded is just factually inaccurate.

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.

Agreed. I've got Daniels at a higher trade value than Garland. I'd give up significantly more for him.

Yes its a small exaggeration and its a switching league and all that. But what is true is teams are more concerned with Mitchell than Garland. And he absolutely benefits from that both with defenders and game plans.
And a new team giving big value for him would be asking him to be the primary perimeter offensive player. Maybe he steps up and does that, but we have enough evidence to at least have doubts.
Even if you personally don't.

Oh I think this is too far. Daniels is about to get paid and once he's on a big money contract, his value changes meaningfully. I like him too, but we almost never see big trade packages for players like this.

Yeah, I can definitely see that, even if I'm not quite there yet. But, I'm also cautious to not overrate Daniels just because of his insanely high steal rate. He IS a quite good defender, but he's also feasting a ton in the passing lanes. Not to equate the two, but I remember when Jamaal Tinsley was assumed to be a good defender simply because he had a high steal rate, but he also just feasted in the passing lanes. Daniels is yet to be a guy who can "get a bucket" or truly run an offense, though he's shown to be a really solid secondary distributor.
