Cle is looking to move Max Struss + Dennis Schroeder + 2x 2nd Rd Picks to clear cap space.

Opposing teams are wanting Cavs 2031 1st Rd Pick but Cle is being patient for now & dont plan on move that 1st Rd pick at this time unless its in a trade that improves roster.

Mobley is untouchable from Cavs Pov. Unless a god father offer from OKC of J dub & multiple 1st Rd picks or chet & multiple 1st Rd picks & swaps. Im talking 4+ 1sts plus few swaps.

As for Brown - Cle offered Allen Struss & Schroeder & 1st Rd pick but Cs after signing Mitchell Robinson, went w more draft assets + PG who they see as a perfect fit next to Tatum.

Brown had privately demanded a trade tho Brad asked jb not to say anything publicly & he would move him. He kept his word. The fray b t Tatum & brown was too much.

Thx Jason Kidd for split w comment in finals saying Brown was best player on Cs & then he got finals mvp, tho Tatum raised the banner. Then browns social comments made situation untenable. Brad Stevens had gun to his head & promised he move JB if he didn't demand a trade publicly. He kept his word.

Cavs missed out on JB but they did try to Secure the deal.

Cavs plan B is Jonathan Kuminga & LeBron James after missing out on Brown Trade.

Look for Cle to move Struss & Schroeder incl 2x 1st Rd picks.

Cavs plan keep Big JA unless a top 15 wing is available in a trade w Allen.

There is Tre Murphy iii in New Orleans.

JA + Struss + Schtoeder + All Cles picks & swaps could be moved for Murphy + Missi + H Jones.

This is possible but unlikely.. so barring a trade.plan is get off struss $ & Schroeder $ using 2nd rd picks.

Potentially they would use that 1st to get off $ if James committed to pay him more $.

Atkinson coached Kuminga & That is their plan to replace Dean Wade...

They see Kuminga as versatile defender & adding LeBron fills out wing depth.

Also rookie Maleek Thomas who comp is Devin Booker will have big role Potentially as backup pg.

Hes a sniper from 3 & played off ball last year but in HS was on ball.

Cle plans playing him at pg in summer league.

And remember Isiah.Hartenstein on cavs. Cavs fo found him as udfa...

Cle let him go bc had too many bigs.but cle may have found a future JA replacement in udeh jr from Miami. He s on a 2 way deal & similar size & archetype as JA but hea grown man body already at 22 hes 6 10 & 265 w no shoes.

Shot blocker, rim runner, screen setter off rebound lob threat. Look for him at summer league to set screens for Maleek Thomas. Thomas comp is devin Booker to me. Hes a gym rat & straight sniper from 3 w a quick release & unlimited range & confidence. He will be a star in this league & steal of draft!

So Cavs fans be patient.

Plan B will happen once Struss & Schroeder are dealt.

Cle trying to hold onto that 2031 1st at all costs.

They have 2x 2nd rd picks to move Struss & Schroeder. Once they find a partner they will sign Jonathan Kuminga to a deal as he is familiar Kenny Atkinson system & it will bring DeAndre Hunter full circle w ATL. Its crazy how it ll work out.

Then lebron will sign in Cle & lastly Harden will restructure &.sign.

Its why LeBron is being patient & in no hurry.

If he wanted GSW he would just sign already as they can offer him deal now.

Cle needs more time to move $ around

So cavs fans be patient.

Cavs have 141 turnovers this postseason. Most in any 8 game stretch in playoff history.

We had 20 turnovers in game 1 vs Detroit. They scored 31 points off of that. That’s the game right there! We literally gave them the game by being careless with the ball!

Type of stats that’ll get a coach fired ASAP!
