This is too much to give up for a late first round pick. It's gonna mess up team chemistry and the teams current winning ways. Dunno why Magic decided to help the Cavs like this. At least the Lakers will be dropping them come the end of the season.

Welp, I hope the scouting staff got something cooking up.

Let me add, I hope they got some heads up from PG13 before they made this trade as it does add more cap space.

clarkson and nance isnt bailing ANY team out.
Eh, it helps the Cavs out. They get rid of IT who LeBron and seemingly everyone else on the team dislikes besides Jae Crowder. Clarkson will just shut up and wait for LeBron to pass him the ball and shoot unlike IT. Nance gives an old squad some energy slightly better defense.

IT an expiring so they really didnt have to "get rid of him" per se. Nance and Clarkson not moving the needle

Windhurst sold me on it. Lakers will have the two max slots available for free agency now if they renounce Randle and stretch Deng plus getting a 1st out of it even if it's in the mid 20s. That does give them a chance to either keep Randle if they strike out or if they get someone to agree to sign then they can easily match any offer he gets.
