Blockbuster Trade In The Work?

Wed, Feb 20, 2008 By Tariq Ali

NBA Rumors

According to Brian Windhorst of the Akron Beacon Journal, the Cavaliers are working on a blockbuster trade that doesn’t involve Mike Miler.

According to his blog post, the Cavaliers “are being very active and are in talks over a blockbuster that has not been reported yet.”.

Here is what Brian Windhorst has on his blog:

“So this will surely disappoint some of you and also anger some of you, but I cannot yet say what player the Cavs are considering making a deal for. I have to protect sources. But I can tell you that I have talked to two different people in different organizations that have confirmed the talks are serious. I know you want more, but I just can’t give it to you at this point. I am not trying to build up ratings here, I am reporting what I can report. Just know that Danny Ferry is serious about trying to upgrade the roster. Whether or not it gets done though is up in the air. It’s 50/50 at best.

Here is what I can tell you, it is a trade that would change the dynamic somewhat of how the Cavs play but not directly affect the way LeBron James plays. Also, if this deal goes through, it would potentially allow the Cavs to make another deal.

Also, the Cavs are trying to get a first-round pick as part of the deal. Which is a sticking point, the other team doesn’t want to give it up. Perhaps this is because they are thinking of trading their first round pick this year or next year as part of another deal.”

    It’ll be interesting to see what Danny Ferry can pull off considering how hampered he is with the team’s collective salaries being over the cap.

    But Joe Dumars has definitely upped the ante for the rest of the league with the Iverson deal.
