It works, salary-wise, if it's IT and Crowder and Zizic for Irving. IT/Crowder/Zizic total about $14.7MM. Irving makes just under $18.9MM this season. If the outgoing salary for Boston is under $19.6MM, which it is, then they are allowed to take back up to $5MM more. So this works. |

Boston is going to be legit for the next decade
Horford
Tatum
Hayward
Brown
Irving
They will have the assets to go after Anthony Davis too (so long as they don't trade Nets or Lakers/Sacramento)
As long as Cleveland can get a few of those picks Boston has stockpiled, then they're making out well too. |

IT/Crowder/Zizic combination would save the Cavaliers $19M in taxes. Tax bill goes from $78.4M to $59.2M. |

Seems like Shams is the one BREAKING NEWS first now. Woj is now obsolete. I hated the fact he went over to BSPN. |

Wouldn't be surprised if that trade goes thru. Both teams up end happy. |

If they give up the one of: Lakers pick, Nets pick, Tatum or Brown I will be so (bleep) happy. _________________ “Life is too short. You have to keep it moving.” - Kobe |

Plus if they also get a decent pick it can fuel a post-Lebron rebuild. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

This is something that crossed my mind and it might be laughable but HYPOTHETICALLY
If the Cavs get Nets or Lakers pick and they're obviously trying to compete, you think we can trade Brook Lopez for the pick?

Pretty sure they are receiving the same texts from agents or "source". Shams just faster typing I guess lol |

Also trade doesn't guarantee Lebron doesn't bolt. Thomas is a free agent after this season so he could very well end up on another team. Cavs could end up clearing salary for another rebuild. |

Are any of Celt's draft picks included? If not, that seems like a lop-sided trade IMO. Once LBJ leaves, they are going to be rebuilding so might as stock up on picks now. |

Love has another year on his contract so he will probably be stuck on the Cavs for 1 year if they blow it up unless they find another sucker to take his salary. I guess his expiring contract for 2018/2019 season will be valuable for some team that wants to clear cap space. |

Rare trade that I think is good for both sides. Cavs were kind of screwed and got an all-star plus a potential top 5 pick. Celtics become a better team right now. Cavs-Celtics games are going to be something. |

That pick makes a difference. 2018 draft is supposed to be pretty good. |

Woj still winning the head-to-head, not even close actually.
