    The police should arrest the Cavs GM, really.

    How weird/wild would it be if we did all of this work to jump into the 2 slot, and then we turn right around and deal it to OKC for Harden?

    DM needs to be fired if he does that. I don't think he will do it.

    I don't know what Charlotte is thinking, especially if they have a realistic shot at James Harden. He's better than any player that they could draft or acquire from the other teams.

    You ALWAYS go for the proven player when faced with a choice like that. Unless the athlete you're drafting happens to be LeBron James caliber guaranteed superstar.

    I'd trade #12 for Varejao in a heartbeat. People really think that #12 is worth more than a starting NBA PF who averages 11 and 11 and defends? Insanity.

    No, the word is Charlotte would've agreed but OKC didn't want to trade Harden.

    If he had a solid jumper, then yes. I wouldn't do that.

    Andy V is actually good at basketball.

    12 is very good value for him.

    Varejao on a vet min. MIGHT be worth it.
    Varejao with his current contract. Hell no.

    It would be stupid because you can package #12 for a higher pick. Varejao is not worth something that would've netted us a top 8 pick. Plus he has no upside left.

    you want him for a team thats ready to contend thats the only problem... not a team needing a direction or rebuild.
