Trade & Signing Explanation
(Cavaliers)
Cavaliers Added An Elite Shot Creator On The Team To Take Off Some Of The Offensive Burden To Donovan Mitchell & Maybe Darius Garland(But He Been Mediocre). It's Been Obvious That Cavaliers Need Another Skilled Scorer On The Team, They Have Been Playing An One Man Offense With Donovan Mitchell & It's Been Tough For Them So Far Especially When Their #2 Option(Garland) Haven't Shown Up At All and He Have Been Playing Some Inefficient and Mediocre Basketball. Ingram Is A Very Skilled 3 Level Scorer and Have Been One Of The Best Playmaking Wings In The League. He Can Be A Great Source Of Offense For Cleveland and Be A Help Overall. Secondly, They Try To Focus On Mobley's Development By Trading Jarett Allen. Its Been Obvious That He Plays Better Without Allen and Can Spread His Wings Much Better. Third, They Traded An Expiring Aging Caris LeVert So They Can Give Okoro Better Role and Opportunities. Okoro Is Averaging Almost 10 PPG With Elite Efficiency While Being One Of The Best Perimeter Defenders In The League and He Has More Room To Grow With Just An Age Of 23. They Managed To Get Some Draft Capital(3 SRPs) Too As A Return For Caris. Lastly Signed Some Quality Role Players To Fill Up Their Bench(Thesis, Covington, Osman)
