They might make a move before the deadline but don’t fix it if it ain’t broke.

Sadly I'm very nervous we will move either Okoro or LeVert. I love both of them but I have this feeling one is gone.

I am a believer in staying put this year. I don't see a move that could really move the needle by trading Levert or Okoro. I've seen names like Bogdan Bogdanovic, Sadiq Bey, Tyus Jones, and Royce O Neale floated around with the Cavs but none of them really make them any better if at all. Would just be lateral moves. I would like to stay pat.

Me too. Expiring contracts play into this and that's just part of the NBA. I'll be anxious at the deadline that nothing happens.

As the clock has struck 3 pm today the Cavs have not made any trades. The roster will stay as is unless they pick up a player in the buyout market. I believe this is the right move I don't think there was a trade out there with the assets they had that made them any better. Only lateral moves seemed to be available.

This Cavs team is so fun to watch. If they didn’t lose that one game to the bucks they would be on a 18 game winning streak.

Just saw highlights of that. Incredible.
Reminds me of the Evan Turner buzzer beater from a similar spot on the floor in an OSU/UM Big Ten Tournament game.

The Cavs just lost to the Knicks without 4 starters. They're also a missed Strus full-court heave away from being 2-5 post-All-Star Break with only wins over the pitiful Wizards and Pistons. This is the 3rd year in a row that when the 2nd half of the season comes around and the intensity increases the Cavs seem to fold. Not feeling good about this team heading into the playoffs. See a lot of the same issues from the Knicks playoff series last year. Bigs get bullied when teams play physical and get out rebounded by a wide margin. Team also can't seem to score enough and the role players aren't hitting enough 3's Niang, Strus, and Wade. JB also won't play Sam Merill when the team has all its players and he is their best 3-point shooter. Reoccuring theme here in the 2nd half of the season which is not good. JB is coaching for his job in this stretch and into the playoffs.

I wouldn't disagree with much of what you said. Donovan is out at least 3 games DG turns the ball over way too much for an All Star PG Not a Niang fan at all EM can be great then soft as Charmin Merrill and Porter need more min Josh Hart goes straight to the Cavs bench and tugs on Donovan's necklace after a dagger 3 and the Cavs give zero reaction.There should have a fistfight. Total BS All of these except DM injury fall directly on JBB.....I'm sure I could think of many more. First round exit and he is gone.

It was unrealistic to think that they could keep up an 18-2 pace imo, although I do not disagree with the points made by browns624 or clb6110. Garland needs to get back into rhythm, too many turnovers. Niang during the streak didn't take any crap from anyone and he would need to assert himself in the playoffs or Hart will look like Nurkic with 30+ rebounds. Where Merrill and Porter fit in has become a mystery. I had hoped Mobley would put on some muscle in the off-season but no, too darn soft. Even Allen has looked out of sorts to me and the Cavs go as he goes.
I think they will right the ship but physicality is the thing for me. There comes a time when you need some brawlers.
OT: Stephen A. Smith is a punk.

Well Dean Wade went nuclear to save the Cavs he single handedly out scored the entire Celtics 20-17 in the 4th. Bad news now Mobley is hurt as well. Tweaked his ankle

Same with Undisputed, once Shannon Sharpe left there wasn't an adequate foil to Bayless.

I love Richard Sherman, Michael Irvin, and Keyshawn Johnson with Skip I'll admit to not tuning in lately, but when I have it's just been Keyshawn, who I like but it leaves a little too much time for Skip to yap. I know that it's a "good cop, bad cop" setup but I just wish that Skip would occasionally turn the page.

I haven’t been posting in here because this team is losing steam again in the 2nd half of the season for the 2nd year in a row. Feels like a 1st round exit in the playoffs coming. May fall all the way to the 5 seed. Hard to get excited about 45+ win seasons when the playoff success always looks bleak

Maybe they’ll be able to get some extra practice in eventually once their new practice facility is built downtown.
