Anybody that even remotely follows the NBA knows that the Cleveland Cavaliers did something rare on February 8. They traded six players, got four back, and shocked the NBA world with three huge trades.
The Cavs, who had a full 15-man roster, were down to just 13 active players, along with their two-way players from the Canton Charge.
This team didn’t only lose experience when they dealt the likes of Channing Frye, Isaiah Thomas, and Dwyane Wade; they also lost a couple of their most imperative locker room personalities. They can possibly get that back with veteran Tony Allen, that and much more.
