Trade for Kyrie Irving?

I think it would be worth a shot, give he and Love a one year chance to make something happen

I believe Cleveland has the salary to absorb a straight up Pek for Irving trade, could look pretty nice for them especially if they covet Wiggings over Embied.

I think Cleveland would be dumb enough to do it.

Pek isn't a guy you trade for if you are starting fresh, and how does that work if they covet Embiid? Even if they covet those two guys, what does Pek have to do with them drafting them? They already have the pick.

I don't think Cleveland thinks they are starting fresh, they are pretty delusional in my opinion being as they traded for a one year rental of Luol Deng. I said it would look nice if they covet Wiggins over Embiid, then they can solidify 2 positions with Andrew and Pek. If they want Embiid then yes this scenario would never work.

My bad on the quote Bloop. I still don't see them moving Irving for Pek because that matches an oft injured 28 year old center with a very young potential star. Not a great pairing in my mind. I think they could do a lot better for Irving.
