Everyone should know by now that Cleveland is likely trading Allen and DG this offseason, this trade sees both going out west to two different teams for players and picks that will help Mitchell win now.

To start, Allen is going to Golden State to give Steph some help down low. What they do with Draymond, Lord only knows. My guess, they’re stuck with him. This trade does allow them to resign Klay to a team friendly contract and move Kuminga to SF. It also helps them move off of Wigs who has regressed for some odd reason (supposedly he has a ton of issues in his personal life atm).

For Portland, they’re landing a PG that is on the same timeline as their rebuilding young core and they’re dumping what could be seen as a bad contract in J. Grant. Yes this is costing them one 1st, but I think it’s a price they would be willing to pay. DG has a very similar skill set to Dame, so he should fit right in there in Portland.

According to fanspro, Cleveland is projected to be substantially worse after this trade, but I don’t see it. Mobley plays his best basketball at C. Grant is a PF that actually fits alongside him. Wiggins is a very solid 3 and D SF. Strus is a decent player at the SG position. And Mitchell proved he’s more than capable of running the PG when Cleveland went on that insane run before the all-star break winning 18 of 20 games.

Overall, I think all parties involved would be happy here. You could argue about the inclusion of the draft picks, but I think they’re fair as is. What do you all think? Lmk in the comments below.
