I don't think this is true. Can someone else confirm?
I can confirm that it is indeed false.

Neither of these guys is the best player on Orlando's team.
If you make this trade, you're asking them to be the best players on the Cavs.
Given Orlando's history, how does that make you feel?
I met with Koby and Dan this morning and passed along your trade idea. Their response was:Cleveland trades: Collin Sexton, J.R. Smith & Tristan Thompson
Orlando trades: Evan Fournier & Nikola Vucevic
Why for Cleveland? Acquire a couple of established players that fit into the roster. Fournier is severely underrated and Vucevic gives us a back to the basket big, which is very useful in the playoffs - get rid of two bad contracts in the process.
Why for Orlando? This is all about getting a very good prospect that could be their future at point guard. The Magic are a rebuilding team so trading away two win now players shouldn't hurt them at all.
PG: George Hill | Jordan Clarkson
SG: Evan Fournier
SF: Cedi Osman
PF: Kevin Love | Larry Nance
C: Nikola Vucevic | Ante Zizic
I realize that frontcourt defense could be an issue, but I don't think Vucevic is a downgrade in that regard over Thompson.
