    21ppg
    46% FG
    41% 3pt
    7+apg

    Yeah, he would be huge, there are conflicting reports though, some say he is on the block, some are saying not true....

    Usually when there is smoke there is fire....but this is the kind of thing I wish the Rox would pursue....

    careful, DD, "on the block" could be construed as racist. might want to rephrase ;)

    They just drafted Amen. I gotta believe they wanted a 2 year player ideally at PG.

    Reported by the least credible person out there, Sam Amico

    That being said, I do think Cleveland is up to something big and bold.

    Why would they want to trade him?

    They're not trading him to the Rockets. Only way they trade him is for a top 15 player.

    Allen is probably available though

    Don’t show these rumors to KPJ. He might go into Toyota center pissed off and paint everyone’s nails black.

    Is he on the block??? I haven't seen a reliable source say that but if he was I'd easily give all the Brooklyn picks + anybody other than Jalen, Sengun, Jabari and Amen. Yes even Tari and Whitmore. Garland is really really good. One of the best young point guards in the entire league. I don't believe he's available though.

    Garland is indeed a stud. Plus it seems like he could grow with Amen and be a 1/2 down the line. Problem is though Im thinking Cleveland wants to upgrade talent levels in the vet sense.

    They'll ask for Amen or Jalen or both.

    It doesn't seem like they are actively trading him, but if they are then the Rockets would be out of the picture. The Cavs are trying to be very competitive now, not try and develop some high draft picks.

    I think Jarrett Allen might be the one who could shake loose not Darius.
