And owner.

The amateurish Gilbert is a big part of the problem in Cleveland.

I like the acquisition of Deng for them, and getting rid of Bynum was great. The Sacramento first rounder is rough though. I don't think the market for Deng was that high and that's a prime pick in a loaded draft. They could be trading Deng for one of Wiggins/Parker/Embiid.

The Kings pick is top 12 protected next year, and top 10 protected several years after that.

It is really a toss up whether him or Taylor are bigger problems for their teams.

For a couple months of rental ( 0% chance he resigns) and the biggest upside is that you can get in and get swept in the playoffs

Ah. That makes it not so bad. I saw it turns into two second rounders if it isn't conveyed by 2017.

I wouldn't be sure about that. The Cavs will have quite a bit of money available and likely view him as a long-term part of their team. I doubt they would have given up that much for him if he didn't indicate he was open to resigning with them.
