Hello, friends. It’s time for another edition of the Dime Podcast (I know, a day late. I’m sorry). Be sure to subscribe everywhere and anywhere you listen to podcasts (Omny, iTunes, Google), and this week we’re spending 40 minutes discussing the one NBA story that continues to dominate headlines: What can the Cavaliers do to fix their problems on the trade market?
In order to properly break down Cavaliers trade scenarios and their many problems, we turned to Twitter’s preeminent source for all fake Cavaliers trades, @PChopz_. Chopz joined us to vent about his beloved Cavaliers and go through a number of potential trades (some of which made their way into our attempt at blowing up the Cavs completely) that Cleveland should be looking into.
First, though, Martin and I come up with an idea for a shirt with a built in lower back pillow to help people with back injuries.

Here is this week’s rundown:
- This year feeling worse than previous Cavs January swoons
- LeBron’s back problems apparently disappearing
- A shirt with a built in back pillow
- Chopz loving the trade machine
- It being nearly impossible to trade J.R. Smith and Tristan Thompson
- The George Hill trade sapping them of easily movable contracts
- Brian Windhorst SZN
- Kevin Love for C.J. McCollum trade ideas
- Browns talk, because of course
- Chopz having a hit list of GMs that have done the Cavs wrong
- Kevin Love deserving so much better
- J.R. for Kent Bazemore maybe working?
- J.R. Smith being in Atlanta but being a changed man now
- Markelle Fultz not being able to shoot somehow not being a bigger story
- Are the Cavs, if they make the expected moves, still the Eastern Conference favorite?
- Tristan and a pick for Favors
And much much more!
