Jonathan Tjarks on the Cavs moves today https://www.theringer.com/nba/2018/2/8/16992492/cleveland-cavaliers-trades-futur e Cleveland has had a landmark deadline period, one that improves both their present and future. But there is no guarantee that it will change their destiny in either time frame. The Cavs were able to walk a tightrope with all these trades. They reset their team this season without jeopardizing their future. To be sure, there are still a lot of questions about the direction of the franchise. All they really did was create a way to get out of a hole they dug for themselves. Cleveland isn’t much closer to being able to beat Golden State in the Finals, and there’s no guarantee they will be a title contender again if LeBron leaves. At the very least, though, they have raised their floor. This version of the Cavs won’t embarrass themselves this season, and they won’t be as embarrassing as they were after LeBron left town the first time. Considering where they were at the start of Thursday, that has to count as a win. |
