Charlotte trades: Rozier

Pf: Banchero/ Wagner
C: Capela, Bitadze
Harris and ingels could also be package for a better starting SG but I love Suggs and need to save money to resign Paulo and franz.
Thoughts? How off am I?
20 Jan 2024 16:15:41
No on the Atlanta side. You are about 2 1st round picks shy. By you own calculation you are getting two starters and upgrades. Fultz can’t shoot. Carter is an OK Backup, and Howard is an unproven projection from the back of the bench.

Cleveland: D Green
15 Jan 2024 09:24:48
Warriors will take Allen themselves.
15 Jan 2024 15:32:08
No
This gives them capspace to sign a free agent next summer
Both Hayward and Bridges are expiring.
Goldenstate would have 54 million in capspace next year so they can sign P Siakam without losing Kuminga/ moody or picks.
=> And thay can keep the 2024 pick with a little luck
=> And they can use their mid level exception

Why does Cleveland do this?
15 Jan 2024 23:12:39
Green is a good fit next to Mobley
The tandem Green-Mobley would be better in offense and defense over the tandem J Allen-Mobley
C:Mobley

Lol Allen is better offensively than green is today. Low value. Low character cavs say no.

Hornets - Sixers - Blazers
Hornets : J Grant, F Korkmaz
Why: players doesnt normally sign in Charlotte during offseason, so they trade for a player who can help Lamelo build atleast a playoff contender
Sixers : G Hayward
Why: they add a wing who can facilitate, a good complimentary player for Embiid & Tyrese
Blazers : M Morris, K Martin, J Bouknight, 1st round pick from Sixers with top 18 protection, 1st round pick Charlotte top 8 protected, pick swap from Charlotte in 2026
Why : gain assets for the rebuild, they can use Morris to gain more at the deadline

you are not trading away your young franchise player, unless you are Sacramento.
21 Nov 2023 23:46:26
Charlotte is still a lottery team.
They should consider 5 draft picks for their star.
23 Nov 2023 04:32:21
They trade their star for 5picks then select horribly in the drafts. You dont trade away a franchise cornerstone just like that. You build around him, not trade him.

My dream Cavs re-tool
Trade #1:
Cleveland gets: Scoot Henderson, Anfernee Simons & Jusuf Nurkic
Portland gets: Darius Garland & Jarrett Allen
Why?
Cleveland chooses to go into a different direction. As of now, their ceiling is second round, which is not enough. Scoot is a great fit next to Mitchell. Simons would be a great bench piece & Nurkic is added to match salary, but he could contribute as well.
Portland goes for players who are proven & young as well. They then have the ability to trade Lillard for players that fit next to Garland & Allen.
Trade #2:
Cleveland gets: Brandon Miller & Mark Williams
Charlotte gets: Evan Mobley & Ricky Rubio
Why?
Cleveland mixes it up to try & have a higher ceiling by going for younger players with high upside. Miller has star potential & Williams has a high ceiling himself.
Charlotte gets one of the best young players in the NBA, a good fit next to LaMelo.
In these scenarios, the Cavs do this to build around Mitchell. He's the future of this team, the best player on the roster & the only one who is close to being a superstar. If you put together a winning team next to him, he'll likely stay. Besides, the Cavs can offer him much more money compared to other teams.
Coaching change
Cavaliers fire J. B. Bickerstaff in favor of an assistant coach who is highly regarded in Charles Lee. J. B. Bickerstaff is not very well liked amongst Cavs fans thanks to some questionable decisions & poor adjustments.
Sign Wenyel Gabriel
New Cavaliers line-up:
PG: Scoot Henderson / Ty Jerome
SG: Donovan Mitchell / Anfernee Simons / Max Strus
SF: Brandon Miller / Caris LeVert / Isaac Okoro
PF: Wenyel Gabriel / Georges Niang / Dean Wade
C: Mark Williams / Jusuf Nurkic / Damian Jones
Coach: Charles Lee.

Apologies for the spam. I had to modify my trades, didn't realize they would all be posted.
18 Sep 2023 07:01:43
Cleveland gets: Scoot Henderson, Brandon Miller, Mark Williams, Anfernee Simons, James Bouknight, 4 2nds from Charlotte & 2 2nds from Portland
Hornets receive: Evan Mobley & Jusuf Nurkic
Portland receives: Darius Garland & Jarrett Allen
Why?
The Cavs need to do some moves if they want to get out of purgatory. I really doubt we're more than a second-round exit, if we're lucky. These moves are made with the future in mind. Each team gets something good. Portland proceeds to trade Lillard for pieces that fit next to Garland & Allen. Cavs also save some money.
Charlotte swaps Miller & Williams for one of the best defensive bigs in the league with tons of upside offensively as well.
Portland builds around Garland & Allen.
New Cleveland line-up
PG: Scoot Henderson / Ty Jerome / Ricky Rubio
SG: Donovan Mitchell / Anfernee Simons / James Bouknight / Sam Merrill
SF: Brandon Miller / Max Strus / Caris LeVert / Isaac Okoro
PF: Georges Niang / Dean Wade
C: Mark Williams / Damian Jones
Coach: J. B. Bickerstaff.
18 Sep 2023 08:49:52
Why would Portland trade Henderson for another pointguard?
I do like a Mobley for Miller swap.
18 Sep 2023 06:52:52
Cleveland gets: Mark Williams, Gary Harris, Chuma Okeke & '25 top 10 protected first from Charlotte, '24 & '25 seconds from Orlando
Orlando gets: Terry Rozier, Isaac Okoro, Dean Wade & Kai Jones
Charlotte gets: Jarrett Allen & Markelle Fultz
Why?
Cleveland sacrifices Allen to get Williams, who I think has a very high ceiling, & they also get depth with Harris & Okeke. They also get a protected first.
Orlando gets a 21 PPG scorer in Rozier & some other niece pieces.
Charlotte gets an all-star caliber big that fits well next to LaMelo, Brandon Miller & get a quality back-up guard in Fultz.
17 Sep 2023 22:37:37

The Cavs need to do some moves if they want to get out of purgatory. I really doubt we're more than a second-round exit, if we're lucky. These moves are made with the future in mind.

Charlotte swaps Miller & Williams for one of the best defensive bigs in the league with tons of upside offensively as well.
Portland builds around Garland & Allen.
18 Sep 2023 01:46:18
Then with that move you are in the first round exit purgatory at best.
18 Sep 2023 02:10:38
The new team has a much higher ceiling than our current one. Need a coaching change as well though.
18 Sep 2023 03:53:17
why isn't Cleveland, I mean you, building around Allen and Garland?

Miami - Charlotte - Portland
Miami get Damian Lillard & Gordon Hayward
- finally Dame to Miami
- sign Goran Dragic or John Wall
Lillard/Wall or Dragic
Butler/Jacquez
Hayward/Richardson
Martin/Love/Highsmith
Adebayo/Bryant
Charlotte get Tyler Herro & Jusuf Nurkic
- with FA's not really coming to them, they can go for a trade. Herro and Ball may not be good defensively but their offense will give opposing teams some problems. Nurk is a good vet who can mentor their young bigs
Ball/Rozier
Herro/Maledon/Simmons
Miller/Bouknight
Washington/Bridges
Williams/Nurkic/Richards
Portland get Kyle Lowry (release), Kai Jones, Duncan Robinson, Cody Martin, Nikola Jovic & 1sts from Miami (not sure how many they have 2 or 3) & pick swaps from Miami & a lottery protected 1st from Charlotte
- still not the best offer they can get but looks like Dame only wants to play for Miami so teams would be reluctant to deal for him. They can develop Kai Jones and Nikola Jovic to be part of their future front court. They should play Robinson & Martin and try to elevate their values come deadline
Henderson/Simons
Sharpe/Robinson
Thybulle/Martin/Little
Grant/Little/Jovic
Jones/Badji

When I saw Jacquez listed as a "SG" on the depth chart is exactly when I quit reading your take.
10 Jul 2023 13:55:58
SteveyNash, you sounded like our old friend shizee (if you are a member long enough) Making irrelevant comments just to trash someone. Really? Position "matters? "
10 Jul 2023 18:23:56
Psiphon
Umm, ya I think position matters lol… Just pointing out the obvious.
I can’t take the rest of your post serious when it seems like you don’t know what you’re talking about fielding a depth-chart like that.
Hopefully he’ll learn from this a be better next time. Maybe do some research and then he’ll be taken more seriously in the future.
If not, at least he’ll always have you to jump in and defend him.
