Looks like Rebuild trade rumors are starting already

Yeah, looking it up, any team in the 2nd Apron is immediately restricted from aggregating players in a trade.

So sending multiple to acquire anyone is a no go. I don’t even think they can do 2 for 2. The rule is Zero Aggregation once over the 2nd Apron.

So the Cavs would need to dump Hunter for nothing to drop below to make that AD trade for Garland and Allen, but I don’t think that helps them that much.

They need to trade Hunter for role players. That’s the ideal I think for them this year. He’s not been a good fit.

They should make a run at Giannis or AD.

See above post, same for Giannis, I don't think there is any way Cleveland can add Giannis due to his $54M salary.

For teams to enter the 2nd Apron moving forward, they better fucking love their team. Because entering the 2nd Apron with a team means you exit the Apron minus some of it, and it won’t be an advantageous loss.
