Cavs close to multiple trades? (Hoopsworld Speculation)

[MirORich]

Ok.

-Please list some examples of FA contracts signed in the NBA the last few years that you wouldn't consider "overpaying for"

-What good is a bunch of salary space going to do us?

-Since we have no need for role players anymore(what, important 'roles' don't exist in the course of a basketball game without LeBron), what type of players should we be bringing in. What type of players will sign with us?

I would have liked Childress if he could play with lebron in a big lineup, now he just looks like a guy we may overpay for.

 

[gratefuldead]

I think we should move on Childress just because of his afro. He kind of looks like a video game character. the cavs could have another free wig night.

People who don't want Al Jefferson are blind.

The guy is a 20/10 young big man with a ton of talent.

People act like going into a full blown rebuild is the right thing, when it's not. Dan owes it to his fans to figure out a way to stay competitive while rebuilding.. Trading for Big Al is a step in the right direction.

Honestly, who are we going to get that is better? Big Al is a very good player with All Star caliber talents.

Also, the whole "run and gun" BS is way overblown. The Cavs are not mirroring the Suns or Knicks here.. Byron still runs PRINCETON sets.

Not only that, but look back at a lot of the running teams of the NBA and they all had a center that lagged behind.

You get me Big Al and Collison and I'll be a VERY happy guy.

No doubt...I agree 100%...those 2 would be a great start

1. #Cavs have had talks with the Wolves about Al Jefferson. Not serious at moment. Wolves want assets in return not just salary dump.

Source in Vegas just said talks between Cavs, Hawks heating up. Hawks supposedly have sight sets on Mo Williams, Shaq (a UFA)

I was just coming to post this. Who all would be involved? You would have to think Childress? Maybe Smith or Bibby?

 

[CavalierFan7777]

no idea...but i'd LOVE to get Josh Smith

my dream scenario: Bibby + S&T Childress + Josh Smith for Mo + S&T Shaq + Delonte

the probable scenario: S&T Shaq + Mo for Childress + "....."

Josh Smith?....didn't it say Atl was shoppin him...I think he is a tad overrated but if we are gonna run he would be the guy to look at...big time finisher and shot blocker....M.Williams may be possible ... he still could develop nicely

 

[AM24]

What would Atlanta want with Mo Williams?

Bibby is getting older but he is still their starting PG and has 2 years left on his deal. I've always said Mo could excel in a 6th man type roll off of the bench, but that spot is very occupied by Jamal Crawford. Just not seeing the fit.

I would like to see something like:

Cavs get:
Josh Smith
Marvin Williams
Jeff Teague

Hawks get:
Mo Williams
Shaquille O'Neal

Then we could move Marvin and Delonte to Golden State for Beindrins and CJ Watson. Since Warriors are front court loaded.

 

[CalBuckeyeRob]

I am all for any trade that improves Atlanta or Orlando in knocking off Miami since that should be our short term goal during the rebuild.

Yeah, maybe when we're done we can send Jawad Williams and our 2031 2nd rounder to New Orleans for Chris Paul, Marcus Thornton, and Darren Collison. Jeez.

I like the first trade, but I don't like the second one.

Josh Smith - while a moron - is worth far more than that on his own. That deal sucks for Atlanta. Any deal we offer for Smith will suck for Atlanta to be honest.

 

[cavsguy13]

Why would ATL trade Smith? Thats stupid. Hes a great defender. We're likely looking at Childress, Williams, and Teague.
