@John_Sabol Just because he said he's not returning to the Lakers doesn't mean a S&T is out of the equation. The Cavs can only offer so much as a free agent

Now that LeBron James is leaving L.A., you can officially end the “Jarrett Allen to #Lakers for LeBron” trade rumor that made absolutely no sense. If LeBron really wants to have a shot at winning another title, he’s better off signing with the #Cavs than #Warriors. East > West

We’ll see what happens, but you’re telling me that Donovan Mitchell James Harden (we’ll see) LeBron James Evan Mobley Jarrett Allen Isn’t the best starting five in the East? #Cavs

@chrisjamesbueno @H_Grove Can't trade Harden, he opted out which means he's a free agent and no longer on the team. If he even thinks the Cavs are going to trade him he won't re-sign

@H_Grove Trade Harden and move Bron at the Point. Too much redundancy in the playmaking division, need a 3&D wing to do the dirty work.. no grit in the Cavs roster at the moment.

@FeartheFroPod It's accurate, it removes his cap hold so we are currently 29.1 million under the 1st apron and 42 million under the 2nd apron not counting the pending Bryant signing. When he opted out it removed the cap hold temporarily until he signs a new deal.

Fear the 'Fro: A Cleveland Cavs Podcast
True Chris, but practically speaking, our TPE's are useless because they trigger a 1st apron hard cap. To use the Lonzo TPE ($10mil), the Cavs would need to finish the transaction under the 1st apron. If Harden takes $30mil, they're still $4.7mil over the 1st apron as of now.

@FeartheFroPod We do have a 10 million trade exception

@ChrisWhatman Two issues. 1.) We can't go over the hard cap for any reason and that includes Harden's new deal. 2.) Harden's massive cap hold is still on the books ($57mil). We could negotiate details now, but Harden has sign 1st to free up the difference between 57 and his new deal.

@FeartheFroPod There's no cap hold for Harden right now. Dean Wade is the biggest cap hold we have right now at 12.5

@FeartheFroPod Don't we only need to finish the TPE transaction under the 1st apron? Like couldn't we do it tomorrow(for example) while under the first apron and then later Harden signs go over the first apron? We only 1 roster spot open right now(based on carrying 14).

@ChrisWhatman In that scenario, James Harden would have to sign for $16 million or less this season. Are the other moves you elude to swapping out salary for nothing in return? What were you thinking? And did you have a player in mind with the 10mil? Are we talking Kuminga via S&T?

@PulseCleveland Lol people saying we developed guys that were already high lottery picks.. Or including Ty Jerome when he was a FRP in 2019(NCAA champ)and just injured a lot. Mobley development has been very stagnant and if anything went backwards this season from DPOY to zero votes this year

@Peter10DM @PulseCleveland 2 way players? Ty Jerome played 72 games out of 164 in 2 seasons and he sucks defensively. Garland sucks defensively. Merrill, drafted in 2020 by Milwaukee(got a ring) and has played for them, Memphis & Cleveland. You think we developed him? Mobley maybe but his game is the same

@SleeperCleCavs There's only 1-2 roster spots currently available. If we carry 14(which has been normal lately then we only have room for 1). If we decide to carry 15 then we have room for 2. This is accounting for Harden, Bryant and 2026 draft pick Thomas

@devinwats @realcavsfans We didn't have the salary room or picks to offer, our cupboard is bare. We only had future 1 FRP and 2 pick swaps to offer

@ChrisWhatman @realcavsfans And Giannis didn’t want to be here. If he did and the Cavs had interest, a deal would have got done. The harden restructuring has been the worst kept secret.

If the Cavs are bringing back Bryant on the eve of free agency on a veteran minimum deal, they must not feel too good about their pathways to improving their 4/5 spot.

@JCowleyHoops Cavs are no longer in the 2nd apron... They're currently 42 million under it after Harden opted out. They will finish in the 1st apron after free agency but out of the 2nd apron.

According to a source, the Norman Powell rumors have some legs and also keep an eye on Cleveland with a Max Strus trade. Powell is a FA, while Strus has a year left at $16.6 million with the Cavs in the second apron. He's always wanted to be a Bull.

How would you feel if the Cavs came out of this week with Wade re-signed for 10mil, Kuminga, and Landale?
