Cavs Open To Trading Darius Garland

[Street Knowledge]

In a recent appearance on ESPN Cleveland, ESPN NBA insider Brian Windhorst was asked about the Cleveland Cavaliers being active in trade discussions this offseason. Windhorst said he believes the Cavs have already been active in trade talks.

Windhorst added that Cleveland is listening to offers for point guard Darius Garland and open-minded about trading him. Windhorst stressed that Garland doesn't want to go anywhere and is happy with his role in Cleveland. He added that the Cavaliers are listening, without actively shopping Garland around the league.

A year ago, there was speculation that Cleveland would move Garland if they signed Donovan Mitchell to an extension. After signing Mitchell, Cavs GM Koby Altman was clear that Garland would not be traded. Windhorst said that a year later, Cleveland is now open to the idea of moving Garland, if they believe that would allow them to take the next step as a team.

People were saying they can’t bring back the same core and hope for different results

 

[NotAHotep]

Makes sense. Can't have a backcourt of 6'1 midgets.

 

[CHICAGO]

OF THE COACH ONLY TO
LOSE IN THE SAME RD AGAIN
SO OBVIOUSLY THEY GOTTA GET
RID OF SOME PLAYERS NOW

Gotta make some type of changes and Darius Garland is the clear outcast, imo. Maybe try to get a bigger guard.

 

[SchoolboyC]

Garland and Allen both seem to be playoff droppers

I don’t think you can run it back again with the same four.

 

[Da_Eggman]

nobody wants that bum

 

[MikelArteta]

Dude was out there grinning in denim jackets

 

[42 Monks]

i've been saying this was coming they can't afford to keep him when his best playoff moments come in garbage time

watch cleveland and orlando swap suggs and garland then be surprised when they get more of the same problems

Allen's a non-factor in the playoffs every year because he's not good enough on either end to justify not being a 5 out team, but I'm not sure what his trade value would even be.


The Garland fit next to Mitchell has never been perfect either and he could actually get them something worthwhile in return.

 

[In The Zone '98]

Cavs should be trading for Giannis or KD

I’m sorry ik u mean no harm

But I really hate some of these new nba terms

“Playoff riser/dropper”

“Ethical hoops”

“Free throw merchant”



I couldn’t even imagine hearing sum this shyt on a court

They can get more for Allen than they can for Garland as teams could use an extra big more than they can a guard especially a smaller one.

At some point, Mobley is going to move to the 5, but today isn't that day and why Garland needs to go first.

They need more than Garland and they are too good for their picks to have any value.

garland and Allen can get em Durant no?
