THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT #BELIEVELAND
Trade Mitchell now. He's worth more now than next year. It's delusional to think of him remaining long term. Hell even a local man, Lebron, left as a free agent, TWICE! Garland was better in the playoffs, and will improve faster if he doesn't defer to another guard.
If Cleveland is smart they will get ahead of this and trade him and just take the L. Get the assets and try to keep building around Mobley and Garland. Cleveland has to realize they have time and don't need to be win now. But they will lose Spida for nothing if they wait.
Listen I think you guys are trying to talk yourself into hypothetical scenarios of why he didn’t sign the extension It’s clear as day the man wants to play in the NYC market The Cavs could win the championship n I’d argue he will still leave this is a unpopular opinion when I’m about to say I think the Cavs pulled the trigger too soon on going all in (Why do i say this you ask) no one tends to come to Cleveland. That’s a superstar in free agency even when LeBron James was in his prime with the Cavs, he couldn’t get it done with bringing a superstar via free agency I felt like the Cavs should’ve kept building in the draft, acquiring assets and then taking a swing now you got a star who I believe the minute he could opt out of the last year of his contract he will and leave in free agency and let’s be real the Cavs even if they trade him with a year remaining on the contract are not going to get as much as they paid out for him I think Evan Mobley, taking a leap is the key Evan Mobley becomes a top 15 minimum player in the league is the key to this franchise in my opinion.
