Who on the team would you trade between now and next year? Who would you absolutely not trade?

I would trade Deng, Clark, Gee, Jack, Miles, and Varejao.

There is no one I wouldn't trade. Fact is, we are terrible, and I would trade anyone to make us better. We have no player that is so good that we can't trade him.
 
I would trade Jack to anyone who would take him if we don't have to give up more than a couple 2nd rounders as sweetener. Cut Earl fucking Clark, because no one will take him let alone give up something for him. The others it depends what we get back.
 
I'd trade be eager to trade:

Clark, Gee, Jack, Miles,

Open to moving but somewhat reluctant.

Varejao, Thompson, Waiters,

Don't want to trade:

Irving, Bennett, Zeller, Karasev, Deng, Dellavedova,

Don't give a crap:

Sims, Felix

your top 4 Clark, Gee, Jack, Miles would be fine with me, make MB fix the rest or fire him

I'de move CJ to the reluctant catagory. (I really do think he is finally coming of age and is very undervalued)
I would move Andy to the Don't want to catagory. (He's still my favorite player, I think he has a few more years left and is a great vet who's very important to a winning culture)
I guess I would move Deng to the reluctant catagory. (As long as we get a competent SF back by next year. Plus he probably won't reup with us and I would hate to lose him for nothing)
 
Anybody that is not committed to winning, even if that means playing defense.

seriously though, Jarrett Jack.

Do anything you can to move him for a bigger guard who can defend respectably.

Waiters only if you can get good value for him, which is doubtful at this juncture.

Varejao if you can swing Asik.

I'd like to keep Deng around and hope to resign him because I think he's our best long term option at the position.

Ultimately nobody on the team is untouchable if the price is right.

I don't want pay CJ what he will want given he will be a FA. I don't think Karasev would give you that much less than what CJ provides.

And yeah I go back and forth on Andy, Deng, and Waiters about 500 times a day.
 
Please for the love of god, trade: Jack, Clark

It would be a bummer, but at this point, you have to explore trades for: Waiters, Thompson

Do not trade: Kyrie, Deng, Varejao, Bennett, Miles, Zeller, Karasev, Delly

Don't care: Gee, Sims, Felix
 
Trade Karasev for a new washing machine because I'm tired of the board overrating youth and "potential" the last 3 years.
 
Must trade:

Jack, Clark


Could help a contender, deserve to be on a contender, would trade if the right offer comes along:

Deng, Andy, CJ


Could be an attractive piece for a rebuilding team, would trade if the right offer comes along:

TT, Zeller, Bennett


Not necessarily opposed to trading, but very unlikely to get an offer that brings back equal value:

Waiters, Karasev


Absolutely don't trade:

Irving, Delly


WGAF:

Gee, Felix, Sims
 
I would build around Irving, Deng, and Bennett. Maybe Zeller too. That's pretty much it. Blow this shit up.

I'd love to trade Andy to Oklahoma City and let him play out there for a legit shot at a title. I know they had a lot of interest in him before they traded for Perkins. C.J. is someone else that could serve a contender well as a viable bench player. As others have mentioned: Jack, Gee, and Clark can GTFO.

I'm all aboard the Trade Tristan train too. It's not just about his fit or lack of offensive game that compliments other players. For me, the big thing is going to be about how much he's going to command after his rookie deal is up. I'm not comfortable paying TT $30-40M over 4 years, sorry. Waiters can pound salt too.

If anything, I hope that this dumpster fire finally gets through to the Cavs that LBJ isn't coming back. And I hope they can make moves without tying themselves to the altar where they will be left AGAIN. All of this "OMG, the summer of 2014. Must have ultimate cap space flexibility because there's such a huge FA market nonsense." Let's be real - the Cavs haven't cared about anyone other than LBJ with that cap space.

So, I hope they can go out, grab a solid piece, re-sign Deng, and turn this roster around in such a way that the players can FIT together.
 
I'd like to see Gee stay if it doesn't cost much. I think a real coach could get some valuable stuff out of him. He was one of our best one on one defenders last year, can run the floor a little bit, play strong, and finish. And when things are more in rhythm, he can hit an open 3. Not a bad 12th guy to have. Works hard (?) and not a locker room problem as far as I know.

Maybe who we trade should really depend on who the new coach and GM will be Then fit pieces around what they see fit for the team. We might already have some valuable pieces that just don't look too valuable right now in this system.
 
The first person I would trade is...

Mike Brown

I would see if a local high school would offer you a pair of tickets to wrestling try outs. If they do, you can't pass that up.
 
Absolutely do not trade: Kyrie

Don't trade: Bennett

Open to trading: Tristan, Dion, Deng, Jack

Everyone else, I don't care about...
