On ESPN radio this morning Mychal Thompson (aka Klay's Dad) said that Kyrie won't last in Cleveland, as the Cavs need to find pieces that work with Lebron, like the Lakers did with Magic. He threw out trade scenarios (most highly unrealistic), but he said Trey and Gordon for Kyrie. The co-host Ramona Shelbourne said Utah would probably part with Trey but not Gordon. Would you do it?

I think the best trade out there for the Cavs is with the Celtics. Kyrie for Rondo.
 
No real interest in moving Hayward in a deal like that mainly because I don't see how it solves our problems. One step forward two steps back kind of thing. If they would take Burke, Kanter, and GS 1st plus another pick I'd be interested but I doubt that moves the needle for them either.
 
Cavs would look a lot better with Hayward or Favors. Wasn't there a deal on the table for the #1 pick for Favors and #5? I bet Cleveland wishes they had pulled the trigger on that. I suspect they still could still have gotten Love with Exum instead of Wiggins. . .

DL denied Favors was part of the deal. Maybe Lindsey had talked to the Cavs and they countered with Favors plus the #5 for the #1 at which point DL said no. In any case, even IF Wiggins turns out to be a decent pro, I think having Favors PLUS Exum is much, much better. It's just too hard to find quality bigs. I just don't see Kanter/Gobert as being what we need at the 5.

LOL. I wouldn't do Irving for Hayward straight up. We've seen having an all-star PG is not all that important for championship success. Irving and his zero assists would be quite the fit in Quin's system. I'd much rather have Hayward and his 5 assists/per from the SF position. Besides, we already have our PGOTF in Exum.

Do not like Irving. And Hay is as close to untradable as it gets for the jazz. They love him, and rightly so. If I had to bet, I would say he and Favors retire as jazzmen.

Exactly. With Exum on the roster there are only a few PGs I'd trade Hayward for - Irving isn't one of them.
 
I mean, did you see Irving last night? He practically brings nothing to his team and plays no defense.

Funny how LBJ is basically throwing him under the bus. They got into a heated exchange in Portland and now Kyrie responds with a zero assist night. This could get ugly...well, I mean uglier. Four games into the season and Cleveland is already imploding. They must be ready to party in South Beach.
 
Lol @ this thread. Yep Kyrie is garbage and Hayward is an all timer. Make this thread yesterday morning and the reaction is 100% opposite.
