I don't think Hayward is being talked about nearly enough in this thread. Am I the only one who is confident he is going to come back this season? Danny, Brad, and Gordon have been quick to temper expectations, but all has gone extremely well with his recovery so far and there is no reason that can not continue.
We also have the DPE (with which Danny is being very particular). Not only do we have the option to trade for a player making under $8.4M, but we can outbid any other team on the best buy-out candidate...and there will be several as one or two teams will want to separate themselves from the bottom of the pack.
Cleveland could always make a huge trade to bolster their team, but remember they already signed Wade, Green, and Rose to vet minimum deals and they still stink. I agree with the poster that said they have no chemistry - that really is the only explanation.
