For a significant chunk of the season the Los Angeles Lakers have been the talk of the NBA in terms of the trade market. However, recent reports suggest that the trade market is heating up elsewhere, particularly in Cleveland.
With respect to the Cavaliers, it makes complete sense due to their desire to return to the NBA Finals. Despite said desire, such an ambition seems lofty the way they are currently built.
After Tuesday evening’s loss against the Spurs, Cleveland has claimed a victory in just three of their last ten games. A lot of the losses have resulted from playing awful defensively.
