Lakers Jordan Clarkson & Larry Nance to Cavs for Isaiah Thomas, Channing Frye & 2018 1st Round Pick
- Thread starter Morethan1
- Start date
this is why the Cavs arent very good. I dont knock them for the IT trade but they did panic a bit because contrary to popular belief, that WAS NOT the best they couldve gotten for Kyrie....they just wanted that BK pick so damn bad.

Eh, not really. They've both played like trash for most of the season and they are both on horrible contracts.
I guess they couldn't find a sucker for either one
Wade to Heat (for heavily protected 2nd rd pick)i need a recap of all the moves made - someone make sense of this for me. where is @jarule
IT, Channing Frye, and 1st rd (top 3 protected) pick to the Lakers
Derrick Rose to Utah
Jae Crowder to Utah
Iman Shumpert and Miami's 2020 2nd Rd pick to Sacramento
Jordan Clarkson to Cavs
Larry Nance Jr. to Cavs
George Hill to Cavs
Rodney Hood to Cavs
Joe Johnson to Sacramento
Mudiay to Knicks
Devin Harris to Nuggets
McDermott to Mavs
That’s pretty much all I can say ...they improved their 3 point shooting which should help spacing for Lebron ...they got a little younger and traded Wing defense (Crowder) for Guard defense (Hill)...it’s not a magic pill but it’s decentLooks decent on paper

Magic needs to tell palinka to get Fizzdale.
That's because nobody wants them due to the fact they're garbage, plus they have high salaries & it would be hard for most teams to make any future trade deals with either player.
I dont think it will be that bad, these guys coming in arent egomaniacs and they have some history with each other (Hill/Hood and Clarkson/Nance) so I think lockeroom could come together pretty quick.
not thrilled about Clarkson's contract, however, he has looked beastly in some games this year, perhaps he could be a star in the making. I dont think Hood wanted to be in Utah and he has good potential too. I think Hill is on the downside....however, he is solid all around still. Nance brings energy and athleticism, something TT has been sorely lacking.
They did good in getting rid of Shumpert though.
