Cleveland Cavaliers

Now, we get to the good ‘ole Cleveland Cavaliers. The team that’s faced the Warriors in the last four NBA Finals are far from even playoff-contending this season, which could result in them trading their best player, Kevin Love.

Love may be a great addition for the Warriors as he’s become a three-point specialist following his time with LeBron James. That development would make him an ideal player to join Curry, Durant, Thompson and Cousins.

Green would not be happy with this trade after all the hatred between Tristan Thompson and Green himself. He’d likely wait out his contract or immediately request a trade elsewhere. Either way, this deal would bring a pick and a former All-Star to the Bay.

The only downside is the wide margin on the defensive end between these two. The Warriors’ league-best offense might take a step forward, but their defense would not. Would it then be worth it?
