    Why would they trade for Scoot when they have Bronny?

    Ant + Jabari (for matching) for Vanderbilt + Vincent + Knecht + 1FRP.

    I think they prefer Reaves over Simons.

    But I just read that Miami doesn't want to take on any long term contracts.

    Why would they rock the boat? Everyone is contributing. I guess Max Strus would have to be the main player we'd get in return... and why would we want that?
    Sacramento is more plausible, but they probably need to work out who works best for Doug Christie. Looks like Trey Lyles is playing well, and he's usually part of any proposed trades.

    Last two weeks scoot averages:
    46% FG
    13 pts
    3.6 rebounds
    6.3 assists
    2.2 steals

    playing 30 min in 2 of those games

    Even without that, that would be ridiculous to do at this moment.

    Yeah, I agree. Maybe Cleveland wants him for depth purposes.

    I'm inclined to call bullshit if for no other reason than the author called Grant "coveted" twice. Maybe he has a different definition of coveted than I do

    the problem with a Cleveland trade:

    upload_2025-1-6_10-26-6.png

    about the only appealing trade would be LeVert/Strus + Niang. LeVert is playing extremely well for the Cavs. Going from LeVert-->Grant is a major downgrade for the Cavs, this season at least; very skeptical the Cavs would do that (and I'm just as skeptical about Okoro being part of it). I'm not going to bother to see if Strus + Niang works in the CBA; looks like it will. It sure doesn't meet the young prospect requirement.

    that leaves the 1st round pick(s) requirement, and unless I'm reading things wrong (I'm probably missing something), the Cavs don't have a 1st to trade till 2031

    Somewhat offtopic, but this Barry dude who kept tweeting that Portland was insane for not accepting Duncan Robinson for Dame is still miserable af:

    Nothing Miami was offering was better than Jrue Holiday...

    Or even close.
