Figured we could separate things a bit.



@GoodmanESPN: Knicks send Chandler, Felton to Dallas for Calderon, Larkin, Dalembert, Ellington and No. 34 and 51, sources told ESPN. Deal is done.

Anyone buying the Cavs trading the pick rumors?

Also Bill Simmons can GFH, but this was an interesting article:

Chandler and Felton can help Dallas if Dallas is cooperative this season.

Unless its Cousins, that trade wouldn't benefit the Cavs. Probably something along the lines of what the Kings were sending the Pistons for Josh Smith and Jeff Green going to Cleveland with the Kings 1st round pick.

Saw a tweet the Knicks will likely cut Dalembert and use Calderon as a recruiting tool to get Marc Gasol in New York after this season(14-15).

If the Jazz offer is legit, not sure how the Cavs can't pull the trigger. Same with the Orlando offer.

Cavs have too many holes that could/would be filled by both those offers, while still potentially (probably) getting Embiid, at much less risk.

Jazz giving 5, 23, Favors and Burks for the #1, and Dion/Jack

Orlando giving 4. 12. Afflalo for #1 and Dion/Jack.

I wonder if Cleveland would pull the trigger and deal the pick for Love in hopes to lure Lebron to come there, then Love changes his mind and signs long term.

Nope. I'd hope they are smart enough to not gamble like that.

If LeBron signs with us, or would tell Gilbert he was definitely coming, I think thats the only way Cavs would gamble on picking up Kevin Love, without a guarantee.

Windy said some shit this morning about LeBron and/or his people inquiring if Dan Gilbert would ever sell the team.

To me, that says he's not coming back so long as Gilbert is the owner. And I can't blame him.

I know gilbert has said dumb things, but I like him as an owner. He does want to win, he's not just about making money. He also is willing to spend money to win. I want LBJ back badly, but if he dkesnt, then owell.

I'll just be dissapointed if they trade #1. Because I think Wiggins is going to be awesome and it'd suck to trade out and then him be awesome and we are still losing. Not to mention if we don't win this year, kyrie is likely gone.

If Kyrie can't lead the team to the playoffs in the Shitty East, I'm not so sure, I'd be that sad.

On Mike and Mike this morning they mentioned an article by Broussard(lol i know, he's not the best) saying what 5 teams LeBron will likely choose from. Not on that list was the Clippers because LBJ doesn't know how well his game would mesh with CP3. LeBron can basically be the PG(even though Chalmers was one of the factors in why the Heat lost) Greeny then mentioned the Cavs and wondered how well his game would mesh with Kyrie's. If he is turning down the Clippers because of their PG, how is Cleveland a possibility?

This. Though I have to admit some of these offers are pretty intriguing so far. This isn't like other draft years, we could trade down a few spots and still get a damn good player. I've always been a huge fan of Cousins (the player, not the head case).
