As it happens, the Minnesota Timberwolves have a player who fits that description to a tee, and they would love to get their hands on the TPE in exchange for Al Jefferson. Jefferson has been on the block for some time, as unlike the Cavaliers the Timberwolves are very much in the rebuilding mode. The arrival of Nikola Pekovic and the re-signing of Darko Milicic have long since spelled the end for Jefferson in Minnesota, and the belief is that Minnesota would send him to Cleveland for the TPE and the right combination of picks.

The cavs are a playoff team with this deal. Read that the deal is very close to being completed

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

I think this would be a great move for Cleveland.

How much is the TPE Cleveland would send to Minnesota?

[theEDGEParticipant]

I think it’s the TPE they acquired from the Heat, which is 14,5 million.

[RUDEBOY_Participant]

good looking out on this news…maybe now if Cavs owner Dan Gilbert can get Kobe,CP3 & Melo maybe he can gt a ring before Lebron does

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

CP3 may actually be a possibly at some point.

[PlatypusParticipant]

Mo Williams – Gibson – Telfair
West – Green
Moon – Parker
Jamison – Hickson – Powe
Jefferson – Andy V – Powe

OR

Mo Williams – Gibson – Telfair
West – Parker – Green
Jamison – Moon – Green
Hickson – Powe – Jamison
Jerfferson – Andy V – Powe

[PlatypusParticipant]

does Cleveland have any cap now that LBJ left?

[OhCanada-Participant]

Whos next Turkoglu and Okafor?Seriously…

Lets sayy…
Cleveland Recieves
Al Jefferson

Minnesota Recieves
10MIL TE
Jamrio Moon

Cleveland Recieves
Hedo Turkoglu
Marco Bellinelli

Toronto Recieves
5MIL TE
Delonte West/Daniel Gibson
Future Draft Picks (1st and 2nd)

Cleveland Recieves
Emeka Okafor
Julian Wright

New Orleans Recieves
Antwaan Jamison

PG)Mo Williams,Daniel Gibson,Sebastion Telfair
SG)Anthony Parker,Marco Bellinelli
SF)Hedo Turkoglu,Julian Wright,Danny Green
PF)Al Jefferson,JJ Hickson,Leon Powe
C)Emeka Okafor,Anderson Varejao

Actaully would be a very good team on paper. An obvious half court team, good perimiter shooters, no true PG so Turkoglu could handle the rock and become effective, not too fast for Okafor or Jefferson, lots of capable defensive role players, and a great Head Coach with Byron Scott.

LOL the ALL BAD CONTRACT TEAM

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

I don’t think West will return. He’ll be waived or traded. His contract is unguaranteed.

The Cavs have a little over $8 million in cap space as of right now.

[blackflash234Participant]

I’m guessing that Delonte West’s non guranteed deal would be included in such a deal. Pretty nice move for the Cavs. If only they could either turn Jamison into a defensive center or play him at the 3. The reason why I don’t think Jamison is neccesarily a stretch four is because he’s too small to guard the Gasol’s, Nowizki’s and Bosh’s of the league.

[PlatypusParticipant]

What if they just sign Richard Jefferson for 2 yrs and trade for Al Jefferson

Mo Williams – Gibson – Telfair
Parker / West – Green
Jefferson – Moon – Green
Jamison – Hickson – Powe
Jefferson – Andy V – Powe

2 yrs till Williams and Jamisons contract, thats y 2 yrs for RJ

[OhCanada-Participant]

RJ wont accept a 2 year deal do to the upcoming CBA agreement. Although its not a bad idea.

[stanford hoops]

They are gonna play Jamison at the hree which he can play

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

I’d rather go after Josh Childress.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Is the TPE they got from Miami the amount that LeBron is making this season?

[OhCanada-Participant]

Is it just me or have we gained a soft spot for Cleveland to do well.Who else badly wants to see Cleveland pickup some players and meet Heat in the Playoffs.Everyone would cheer for them ..underdog story of the century.

[OhCanada-Participant]

Yes Butler it should be.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Everybody loves to root for the underdog and the Cavs and city of Ohio are now the biggest underdogs in the league. Everybody feels sorry for them.

[PlatypusParticipant]

your right Childress would be a better player

then in two years everyone except Childress(if they sign him), Al Jefferson (if they trade for him) and Andy V will be the only players currently that they would have on roster

[Dc773Participant]

If Cleveland get Harrison Barnes, forget it. Cleveland should just tank the season, go get Barnes and load on draft picks. I like the addition of Jefferson.

Go get them Gilbert! We with you, forget LBJ!!!!!!

I’ll never leave my home-state. Dude is a fraud.

[Malik-UniversalParticipant]

i think the cavs should target jefferson, guy can still hoop, and maybe still be able to give u 20 a game, the cavs still got sum $ left i think.

[Lotto StudParticipant]

Just because they may tank the season does not mean they’re a lock for #1 overall, my Nets proved that & we didn’t even tank.

[Toronto16Participant]

LOL I agree with OhCanada. Cleveland is now the little engine that could. Everyone wants to see them succeed.

[R-Dot-13Participant]

CP3 to the Cavs please!! LOL

Id love to see it
