    I'll take "things to make Dame ask for a trade" for $1000 Alex!

    If it's Sexton for CJ better add Love. Not a huge Colin fan but he's serviceable.

    Makes absolutely no sense. Even if it was in the situation where Dame asked for a trade, Sexton is up for extension, and likely going to want a near max or max deal. If you're moving on from Dame, I don't want to immediately hop right back into cap hell.

    There's no chance in hell we trade Dame for Sexton.

    Love is washed. He looked awful in the game yesterday.

    Dame for Simmons+

    CJ for Sexton and who knows what else but Love definitely wouldn't make any sense.

    Yeah, sorry, I worded that poorly.

    The tweet I posted said he's on the radar, "if needed", so I meant, if we trade Dame to a different team, and then turn around and trade for Sexton in a separate or 3 team deal. But, overall, it still works out to Sexton ++ for Dame, and I agree, not happening.

    I don't want Sexton. If Dame goes, so goes the entire roster. Blow. That. Shit. Up.

    The Cavs are 16M under the cap which means they could take back an extra 20M in a trade.

    God, no. There's a reason they want to trade him. Why would you trade a young "star" if you're Cleveland? Answer: he's a ballhogging loser.

    (I presume the trade would be something like CJ for Love+Sexton. Ugh.)

    Here's hoping they went something like this:
    "How stupid would we have to be to trade for Sexton?"
    "Lol. Yeah."

    That's the only way we'd be taking Sexton... I think he would be part of our youth movement. Like I said, Dame goes to Philly for a package that centers around Simmons... CJ goes home to Ohio for Sexton and filler because the Cavs can take on all but 11M of CJs contract... and the blowup goes on from there. RoCo would probably go, I would think if Simmons came in that Nurk would go, DJJ is pretty young so he'd probably opt in, Norm would be out of here for nothing.

    When I hear Sexton, it just seems like it would be a young team based around Simmons and Sexton. Honestly, if they're blowing the whole thing up, that doesn't sound like a bad place to start.
