Potential trade packages for the Cleveland Cavaliers’ top trade targets
The Cleveland Cavaliers’ season thus far has been nothing short of an emotional roller coaster. Win streaks, unexplainable losses, injuries, and now trade rumors!
With the ClevelandCavaliers obviously struggling, it seemed almost imperative that they make a trade to help bolster their roster.
However, while Cavs fans waited for a Bleacher Report alert to pop up on their phone informing them that the Cavaliers have finally engaged in trade talks, it remained unclear whether the Cavs would make a move.
Instead of league sources confirming any Cavalier trade talks, there was only speculation. Even with The New York Times’ Marc Stein reporting the Cavaliers would “definitely” make a deal; there was still uncertainty.
One trusted source pulled me aside at the @nbagleague Showcase last week in suburban Toronto and insisted that the Cavs will "definitely" swing at least one deal before the Feb. 8 trade deadline. But is there really one deal out there that closes this gap?

As a fan or follower of the NBA, there are times when rumors can sometimes get a bit repetitive and somewhat boring. Hearing the same things over and over again gets to be a bit obnoxious. However, when there are confirmed reports, that’s when things start to get interesting.
The Cavaliers front office appears to have noticed that the current construction of their team could make it tough to get out of the Eastern Conference, let alone beat the Golden State Warriors.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are currently pursuing three players to help bolster their roster for a championship run. These players include George Hill, DeAndre Jordan, and Lou Williams. However, the question is, what would they have to give up to acquire these players?
