The Cleveland Cavaliers traded shooting guard Dion Waiters to the Oklahoma City Thunder in a three-team deal Monday night in an effort to improve their chemistry issues.
According to Fox Sports Ohio's Sam Amico, Waiters continually clashed with head coach David Blatt and point guard Kyrie Irving.
Cavs coach Blatt told Waiters he needed spot-up shooter. Waiters resisted. Believes he's better than Kyrie, thought Kyrie "favored" by Cavs.
