During RCF2, I thought it was interesting that Brian Windhorst pointed out the Cavs might want a young big with upside in any Varejao trade. Here are a few ideas I had.
1. AV to Utah for Raja Bell and Enes Kanter. Bell and the Jazz have had a total falling out and he is sitting at home waiting to be traded for a buyout. In this case the Cavs take on Bell's contract and either pay him enough to buy him out (thanks Dan Gilbert), or he makes the team at another player's expense. He is still a solid defender at least. Kanter is a 20 year old with toughness who can rebound and has range on his shot. Somewhat similar to Tyler Zeller, but with much more upside. Not utilized well by Utah last year. The Jazz get out from Bell's situation and also get a great defensive big, something Jefferson and Millsap are definitely not.
2. Same trade, but the Cavs throw in the Kings pick and its for Derrick Favors instead of Kanter.
3. The Cavs trade Varejao to the Clippers for DeAndre Jordan. Cavs get a young athletic player who fits their style. Clippers get a veteran who can fit with their team and help them win now. May be some picks involved. My biggest worry is that Jordan and TT would be one atrocious free throw shooting front court.
Let me know some ideas you have.
