     What do you reckon they do during the FA. They openly stated that they are looking to be active during FA.

    They have offered qualifying offers to Harangody, Erden and Gee. Gee is a must sign as he shown so much improvement last year and can’t let him walk. 

    I have no reason why they offered one to Harangody. I am not a fan of his at all. When ever I am watching Cavs I die a little inside when I see him on the sideline ready to come on.

    Erden is also fe why they offered one to him. Lack of depth means they need to sign him and keep that 7 foot size. 

    Now loooking into potential targets for Cleveland, the biggest need is at SF. They neeed a wing to start and if they can get a good, young SF in the FA it would be amazing. Gee is better coming off the bench IMO as that burst and energy he brings is great.

    There are not too many great SF in this FA and that is why I was surpised they took waiters and not Barnes, as they could go after a OJ mayo in the FA. 

    I think the player Cavs need to aggreesively go after is Nicolas Batum. I know Blazers won’t let him go without a fight and they are invested in him but it would be perfect for the cavs.

    He has great athletism and quickiness to run the court with Irving and Waiters and adds that much needed shooting threat from 3 and midrange. He also has great size in 6-8. 

    Other than Nicolas Batum I have no other real player i would be very keen to go after besides maybe Ilyasova. 

    They should then look to trades to get there man at SF. 

    If they can’t they could also rool the dice with a player like

     Portland isnt going to let batum go so no chance there. But I do think illyasova would be good to go after.

    I agree with the post 100 percent. I would love to have Batum he can knock down 3’s a perfect sf for the Cavs system.

     

    Luke is such a goofball. Scalabrine over Luke everyday of the week please.

     Go get the poorman’s Harris Barnes, Hollis Thompson. The kid is legit 6-8 and can shoot the 3 as good as anyone they have. Would be a great fit with Irving and Waiters penetration skills.

     Funny, but every time I watch Harangody play – he grabs some offensive rebounds and is absolutley automatic from midrange. He is no defender at all, but they could use him in a sort of Bonner role

    To get Batum Cleveland would have to overpay, and by a lot. Portland is not letting him go.
