2018 Cleveland Cavaliers Rebuild

Not too much to say but they suck! They tried to improve heavily this offseason but it backfired and shot themselves in the foot. They added guys such as Isaiah Thomas, Derrick Rose, Dwyane Wade and a few others. Injuries and Team Chemistry are destroying this team. It’s not looking good for them. Owner Dan Gilbert called me up and asked me to help him with pushing this team over the hump.

First things first, We fire Ty Lue and hope that doesn’t cause locker room trouble. David Fizdale is hired on a 2-year contract. Last Year Isaiah Thomas was almost a 30 ppg scorer but this year he is barely averaging 15 ppg, guess what that means. Our first trade before the All-Star Break is here:

We talked to Magic and told him were positive Lebron is leaving and the Lakers are the big destination. He agreed to this trade without making us throw in the Nets Pick because, I agreed to take on Luol Deng’s contract.

PG: Lonzo Ball, Derrick Rose, Jose Calderon

SG: J.R. Smith, Dwyane Wade, Kyle Korver

SF: Lebron James, Jeff Green, Luol Deng

PF: Kevin Love (injured), Jae Crowder, Channing Frye

C: Tristan Thompson, Ante Zizic

The position the Cavs are in after the last trade is a weird one. They still look like a contending team but also a rebuilding team with the Nets Pick and Lonzo. Rumors come out after the All-Star Break that Lebron is definitely getting out of Cleveland if they don’t win it all because Lavar Ball is on his last nerve. We bring in Lebron to talk and he says that’s 100% right. My plan is for Lebron to leave and we trade Kevin in the offseason. Playoffs come up and this is how the Seeding looks:

East:

1. Celtics
2. Cavaliers
3. Raptors
4. Bucks
5. Wizards
6. Pistons
7. 76ers
8. Pacers

West:

1. Rockets
2. Warriors
3. Timberwolves
4. Spurs
5. Thunder
6. Trail Blazers
7. Nuggets
8. Jazz

The Finals is Celtics vs. Warriors and the Warriors are favored to win in 6 but the Celtics just beat the Cavs in 5 and are looking really good.

Warriors win in 7.

2018 Offseason: This offseason has so much tension as everyone on the planet is talking about Lebron. But the Draft comes before Free Agency and that means the Cavs have to focus on the draft. The Nets fell off towards the end of the season and gave the Cavs the…4th pick in the 2018 NBA draft.

The Draft:

Hawks: Select Deandre Ayton to help out Dennis Schroeder.

Mavericks: Select Marvin Bagley looking to replace Dirk Nowitzki.

Kings: Make the most Kingsy pick and take Luka Doncic.

Cavaliers: Think about trading the pick with Kevin Love involved but decide to select Michael Porter Jr.

Free Agency: It’s here Lebron is making his announcement on live T.V. Lebron decides to take his talents to the LA Lakers and follows Paul George. That was crazy the Lakers now have Lebron James, Paul George and Isaiah Thomas.

Cavaliers are now getting a trade together to ship Kevin Love and here is what it’ll look like:

The rest of this team of being young it only made sense to ship Kevin for Jabari. The Bucks are legitimate contenders and I set the Cavs up well for the future!

PG: Lonzo Ball, Derrick Rose, Jose Calderon

SG: J.R. Smith, Dwyane Wade, Kyle Korver

SF: Michael Porter Jr., Jae Crowder

PF: Jabari Parker, John Henson, Jeff Green

C: Tristan Thompson, Ante Zizic, Channing Frye

My work here is done.
