Well the Cavs can really help the cost of trading for him by also trading for Stevens

Russ/Delly

Garland/Porter

Cedi/Wilder/Stauskas

Love/Nance

Stevens/Henson/Z

that would be a pretty solid Eastern Conference team

It’s going to take a lot more than Sexton and expirings for Russ and Adams. There will be other bidders.

No, absolutely not.  Russ won't make the Cavs a title contender so no reason to make the move.  Now I would be perfectly fine helping facilitate a 3 person trade where we send OKC a bunch of expirings and take some bad contracts from teh team getting Russ for a bunch of assets though.

Sell off who you can at the deadline and load up to go sign Caris Levert from BKN when hes a RFA next offseason. He played at UM under Beilein. Not sure he would be open to leaving the Nets on the verge of getting KD back in 2020/2021 but he is the 'on the cusp' type perennial all-star the Cavs could actually throw a max contract at.

That's another Guard, we have enough guards.  We need to get more forwards.

Hes 6'7, hes a big SG that also can easily play SF especially in todays small ball 

I'd rather go for a SF/PF hybrid considering our only PF is Love.  Also his 3pt % isn't great.

Yeah that would be ideal, but if Levert is available who looked like a stud before his injury last year--thats not somebody the Cavs can pass up on. As we know the Cavs arnt exactly attracting any type of high level FAs and with Levert he is a type of guy you can go gamble on. Hes young, trending upwards and has familiarity with the coach. The Cavs also have Nance at PF behind Love who they signed longterm so its not like there is nobody.

If the Cavs can somehow stockpile assets with Tristan/Love/Clarkson/JR they could go make a run at Levert and Hayward who is a buy low candidate

well yeah but im not about to try and guess what picks get involved. Yea there might be other bidders but there wont be many because of Westbrooks contract and even less if they try and package him and steven adams together. Westbrook might want to play in Cleveland because of his connection with Love

I dont mind Russ, it would just sabotage the coaching hire yet again.

Like with Blatt, was hired thinking he was going to take over an extremely young team and grow and develop along with them. James signs and it changed the complexity of the team and its season goals. You make this move with Russ and your basically screwing over John Beilein
