Jackson to Cleveland for a TPE

[BIGCatBobcat]

What? Cleveland fans....
Any ideas on who the Cavs may try to get with their TPE? Kaman, Ben Gordon, Stephen Jackson, Rip and the DET pick? Just throwing out names.
Jason Fleming:
The Cavs so far have been quiet. If they want to use the TPE they probably have to do it at the draft, but they may hope they get to keep it for X amount of days after the CBA is resolved and perhaps steal a player from a team desperate to make a move because they are well over the cap.

The only problem is the Cavs are already on the books for $55.5 million for 2011-12, so using the TPE to add to that - plus two lottery picks - may not be possible.

So far it's quiet, but you can bet that closer to June this TPE is going to be one of the hottest topics of conversation.

How do you guys feel about that possibility (NOT a rumor)?

I would trade Jack for Rip and the Det lotto pick. 3 firsts means we could get whoever we wanted in the draft.

I knew there was something missing there! Yeah, I didn't mean to bring up trade ideas, just expose Cleveland fans for what they are: dreamers. That TPE isn't going anywhere for anything good. It'd have to be a desperate team to take that. Thankfully, going into this offseason and moreso the next, the Bobcats won't be that desperate team.
