26: NBA Trade Deadline, Cavaliers and Isaiah Thomas Lakers deal | Justin Rowan | Cleveland |...
- 6 years ago
Cavaliers made the splash at the deadline nobody expected, overturning their entire roster. CelticsBlog friend and Fear The Sword lead writer Justin Rowan returns to the show, and stunningly post-trade Bobby's higher on Cleveland than he is.
Rowan believes CLE gave up too much just to dump Isaiah Thomas, a "cancer" to the Cavaliers. But does maintain LeBron James will stay in Cleveland, due to his satisfaction with the moves.
Bobby and Justin get into what the moves the Cavs ripped off mean for Boston, and how both teams match up with Toronto, Justin's east favorite until further notice, as well as whether a Raptors Finals appearance would be good for the NBA.
As far as getting better, Rowan still only rates Cleveland's improvement by how well they can compete with Golden State. Lineup-wise, Bobby sees potential for this group, but a disaster if James leaves. All that and more on this week's CelticsBlog pod.
