Trade BI for Jarrett Allen and whatever else. Bring back JV and Naji.


1) why would Cleveland do this?
2) why would you resign JV if you just traded for Allen?
3) what does Naji have to do with a BI trade?

If Cleveland trades Spyder, might view BI as a replacement to some of those points.

I know everyone wants to move on from JV. But I would love to have him as a 2nd center. Seems like he could be a consistent go to scorer down low against backups.

Naji would be Treys main backup once BI is gone.

I’d hope we could get more since BI was the main piece of the AD trade, but at this point, I’d take the best offer that makes team better, before giving him the max.

Cleveland has to decide (this offseason most likely) if they want to go forward with Allen or Mobley. The 2 can't co-exist

I agree this would be silly unless he took a huge pay cut.

It doesn't work with 2, but if we let JV go we have room to bump up Naji. Now if we want to do that is another story.

I've defended Naji as incredible value, but that calculation changes when he's not making peanuts.
