Cavaliers Trade Ideas: 2022-23 regular season edition

[AustinCarr]

Not sure if this helps or hurts the Cavs but:

Cavs: Vucevic, Derozan
Warriors: Jarrett Allen
Bulls: Kuminga, Multiple draft picks

Bulls would most likely seek more.

Thoughts/modifications?

Cavs are sending out about 30 million fewer dollars than that would require.

So how would you adjust

So how would you adjust

You really can't for that package of players (Vooch & Demarr). Well, you CAN if you are willing to gut the rotation. And those guys at this point in their respective careers (Both are on the wrong side of 33y/o) are just not worth what that would cost.

Darius Garland	$34,005,250	$36,725,670	$39,446,090	$42,166,510	$44,886,930
Donovan Mitchell	$33,162,030	$35,410,310	$37,096,620	$0	$0
Jarrett Allen	$20,000,000	$20,000,000	$20,000,000	$0	$0
Caris LeVert	$15,384,616	$16,615,384	$0	$0	$0
Max Strus	$14,487,684	$15,212,068	$15,936,452	$16,660,836	$0
Isaac Okoro	$8,920,794	$11,828,974	$0	$0	$0
Evan Mobley	$8,882,640	$11,227,657	$14,730,686	$0	$0
Georges Niang	$8,800,000	$8,500,000	$8,200,000	$0	$0
Ricky Rubio	$6,146,342	$6,439,025	$0	$0	$0
Dean Wade	$5,709,877	$6,166,667	$6,623,456	$0	$0
Tristan Thompson	$3,196,448	$0	$0	$0	$0
Damian Jones	$2,586,665	$0	$0	$0	$0
Ty Jerome	$2,439,025	$2,560,975	$0	$0	$0
Sam Merrill	$1,997,238

Mix and match 30million out of these salaries. Without costing a significant piece (Other than Jarrett), it would take Allen, Niang, Rubio, Wade, Thompson, Jones, Jerome, and Merrill to match salaries. And that doesn't take into account backfilling a roster that is now down just 8 active players (11 if you count the 2-way guys). So, in short, you don't do that.

I doubt they put us over the hump anyway... Doubt we will get anything done until the offseason if/when Mitchell doesn't sign an extension.
