Cleveland HAS to trade JR. They can get draft capital for a guy even if the receiving team immediately cuts him because his contract is minimally guaranteed. Easy draft picks/prospects for a salary dump situation. Actually thought they would deal with the Nets before the Hawks beat them to it.

Victor was already good in magic but I don't see him as the two times all star if he got traded straight to the pacers or if they kept him. What made him what he is today is Westbrook and himself. He did similar workouts that Westbrook did and even worked out with him in the offseason but still got traded to pacers and now he is doing great. If anything okc gave up to early on him like they did with James Harden.

For AD, you have to do it, but it pains me to see nothing left after all of those bad years and lottery picks. Still, if they trade for AD before free agency, that trade combined with Lebron should draw another max contract type to sign once FA starts (Kawhi? Jimmy? Kemba?) and they can sign vet min guys around them.
