Trade #5:

Cavaliers receive: Paul George

Thunder receive: Kevin Love, Jordan Clarkson

This is another scenario in which the Cavaliers can take advantage of a player wanting out of an organization. After an upsetting first season in Oklahoma City, it seems like Paul George already has one foot out the door.

This is where the Cavaliers can look to pull off a sign and trade to bring George to the land. In this trade, the Thunder would receive Kevin Love and Jordan Clarkson. In the event that George is for sure leaving, this move would be the best decision for OKC. This way the Thunder will at least get something in return for George.

Plus, I think pairing Love next to Steven Adams would be a great sight to see. Both of them set good screens and would clean up the glass. Also, Love would do a good job of spacing the floor and allowing Russell Westbrook to be Russell Westbrook.

Paul George would fit nicely in with the Cavaliers. George would be a focal point on offense and most likely the anchor on defense. George has proven to be an elite player on both ends of the floor. This would be a tremendous help to the Cavs.
