Cavs need trade for Dillon Brooks but the Owners Hate Each Other So Its prob unlikely & very Expensive
I know owners hate each other but maybe suns owner would want cavs unprotected 1st in 2031. & swap 1st in 2032.
Suns need Shooting. Strus on expiring & Merrill are 2x snipers.
Suns also has plethora of wings 🪽
D Brook... Jalen Green... Koa Peet... & even new guy Miles Bridges....
And I 4got about R Fleming. .. lol
They loaded at Wing 🪽 & need shooters...
Strus expiring & Merrill would make $ work for brooks... 4yr 86mil deal is reasonable.
He would bring edge, grit, toughness that this cavs team desperately needs. Cavs are too fkn nice... thts da truth. They need the 1x guy that gives entire team confidence . ..
Strus + Schroeder could work...
Merrill + Shroeder could work...
Even JA for brooks + M Williams could work potentially..
If Cle wants to trade that 31 1st Rd Unprotected which has value bc Spida be old n off team by then prob. And a 32 pick swap it makes sense 4 phx retool...
Phx needs play fleming & koa peet & develop these guys plus miles bridges could make D Brooks getable...
Plus Brooks is 30 yrs old. Its smart business to move him now off a great year bc next 1x could be a dud. Hes not 24. Hes 30 yrs old.
But if Cle can find a way to make that move Shroeder + Merrill + 1st 31 + 32swap for Brooks ... phx should listen at least....
They not going anywhere as constructed. Maybe play in... so might as while move Brooks at age 30 & play Fleming & koa peet more.
Win win 🏆
If both owners get out the way ....
