What it feels like watching Cavs fans talk themselves out Brandon Ingram and Cam Johnson

Almost like there is nuance to players 🤔
Well Windy said Ingram is basically a non-starter with the cost and asset allocation.
I’d take a prime Kawhi Leonard if anyone’s got one.
Tell me you don’t understand the new CBA when it comes to Ingram.
Okoro> Cam Johnson
I was a big fan of Niang, Jerome (to clear a roster spot) and our first for DFS. I’d have also done Levert, Jerome, and our pick for Hunter.
They’re content running it back and not trying to improveÂ
I think plenty of fans would love either it’s just a matter of cost. Trading Garland or Allen right now (in most proposed scenarios) would be dealing from a position of weakness. And taking on a Brandon Ingram max extension would be a team building killer.
It’s almost like you need a player that fits, not just in the position name they play.
Weird rational take, I get it.
If you talk strictly basketball, I love Miles Bridges at the 3. All I have wanted these last few years is a dependable 3 who scores easily.
But I do admit him with Mitch and DG is not good D. So I’d be trying to keep Okoro as 6th man while doing this.
I thought OP’s question was great – essentially “What *specific* moves would you try to make as GM.” Yet, here we are with the dumbest, laziest take of “….duuuhhhh…. we should get better….” and all the neanderthals clapping their hands and nodding in agreement. A bunch of idiot cavemen in this sub.

Any of Levert, Strus and Niang can be gone.

Brandon Ingram in a JA deal is a L for the Cavs.
Look at this impact (all assuming Evan extended with max contract): [it ain’t nothing but DOO DOO in there.](https://twitter.com/baclap/status/1808935092943007774?t=zLGpGZGC6c9hQzcBGvUBog&s=19)
I would like Cam. That scenario is covered in the same link.
Wow. It’s almost like great wings are rare, and everyone wants one.
I want Lauri back.
I would take ingram for garland or allen in a heartbeat if we didn’t have to turn around and pay ingram the max.
6’8!!!!
I haven’t seen like any Cam Johnson hate on this sub at all lol
