That's not a bad trajectory at all.
Woj: Don to the Cavs for Markkanen, Agbaji, Sexton, three unprotected 1sts, two swaps, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Great... in 3 years he will be bitching about Walker Kessler causing a pandemic and we will have to blow the team up in 5 years.

I just figured we’d be doing that regardless. Lol

This is usually what newly signed players do, par for any team. I’m sure either the team or the utes gifted him with the tickets.

I expect Bolmaro to get some burn at the point.

Pretty much. The entire point of the first year or two of the tank is to play your young players and see who's trade bait and who's worth keeping on the team, see who develops and who does not. Use the draft to grab the BPA and use that as your framework for filling out the roster. Simple as.
Nah, we’ll just be starting to get in the picks. We’ll even have 2nd rounders!
I've been a Sexton fan ever since the 3 on 5 game. I think a lot of us are all about him because he's shown he can be a legit starter and we've been burned on PGs ever since Trey Burke broke our hearts and ended up underachieving. We're due for a guy who can be a strength at PG. I like Conley and all but we got him way too late in his career. Rubio couldn't shoot and was underwhelming on defense. George Hill was injury prone.
Sexton can be our scorer and I would love to see a tall SG who can hit the three and play defense along side him.

Sexton, Agbaji, 2023 draft pick, Lauri, Kessler
There is a lot of potential there for a very good and balanced lineup. We really need to land a start wing in the draft.

No Vando? You don’t think he’d start over Kessler a rookie??

I was talking about long term, and I'm not sure if Vando is in our long term future. I'm not sure kessler becomes anything, but theoretically he could develop in to an elite rim protector/rebounder which is what you would want next to Lauri.
And unlike Vando, we have many more years of team control.
I have no vendetta against Vando, I just think his timeline (contract terms and length, at least) lines up very poorly with ours and we should seize an opportunity to get an asset whose timeline is more aligned.
The more time goes by the more this trade is looking lopsided in our favor.

Agreed. Sexton and Agbaji also signed to 4 year affordable deals. Agbaji signed to a 4 year rookie contract on top of it.
I'm fully prepared for Don to really go off at least the first season in Cleveland. Danny really got some nice assets in the deal though, esp when you add in those unprotected/swap picks in '28/'29.
