Would you give them Favors and Hood for Crowder and their 1st?Cav wouln't do it. They need wings to guard the Warriors. They arent throwing in Crowder in that deal.
Chicago:
In: Frye, Shumpert, Cleveland 1st
Out: Mirotic
Cleveland:
In: Favors and Hood, Jazz 2nd
Out: Frye (expiring), their first and Crowder. Dump Shumpert's salary.
Also luxury tax savings (Incoming salaries = $14.4M; outgoing $17.7M)
Utah:
In: Mirotic and Crowder
Out: Favors, Hood, 2nd
I think it all comes down to what Chicago expects back with a 1st. Other teams may want/have to send back a player with an extra year on their contract. Jazz can offer an expiring, but would likely only include a highly-protected 1st (if at all).
