Who knew you can trade a headache to a team!

Who knew you can trade a headache to a team!

Who knew you can trade a headache to a team! Hold up, before you leave thinking that this is clickbait or I’m just an idiot. I am not doing that, this actually real and this is actually scary.

The Cavaliers have Rockets have struck a deal shortly ago as a player and a draft pick were exchanged. The headache, I mean player, that the Rockets received is Kevin Porter Jr.

You might be asking yourself, “why is he a headache? What could he have possibly done to be called a headache?” If you have been living under a rock or just don’t care, this is why he is a headache.

The Cavs traded up in the NBA Draft, in 2019, to get Porter Jr. with the 30th overall pick. He had a great rookie season averaging 10 points and 3 rebounds per game, suppose to be a rising talent for this organization.

Then this set into realization; his personal life is a wreck, a mess, something not too many people were realizing about this player. When he was off the court, he was involved in a lot of off-court drama involving the cops arresting him after wrecking his car and when the cops found this: A loaded gun and marijuana.

Long-story-short he was able to prove innocent that he didn’t know the gun was in his car and he was not impaired when his SUV flipped causing a huge accident involving himself. This has now turned into reports of Cavs wanting to help, but he refused. This led to confrontations of shouting, yelling, and screaming at the Cavs’ GM, “Modern Day Slavery.”

The team called it, told teammates he is no longer apart of the team, and that was that. Because they told him precisely to clean out his locker, get rid of all his stuff, and just leave. They could not take the headache any longer, and they finally gave up on him.

SO, now that we went through Porter’s problems… what this gotta do with a trade to Houston?

The Rockets received Porter Jr. as the Cavs get protection on their new second-round pick. The plan is for the Rockets is that they will be able to turn around this player because he does have potential but he is a little crazy.

The team hopes to tame him as he did not have a great time in college, USC, when he was having conduct issues. Plus, when he was sending out creepy messages throughout his social media accounts.

That read this:

“Do you ever wish to see the end of your time?”

A black square, this past October, and was deleted once confronted with it. Hopefully, the Rockets will be able to get the 20-year-old in a stable and safe place in his work environment and whatnot. Because, as I said, he is a great player but him being a headache for people is not helping his cause.

Cavaliers Win Summer League Championship

The Cleveland Cavaliers have won the 2023 NBA Summer League championship; they beat the Houston Rockets to remain undefeated and secure the prize.

Isaiah Mobley, Evan Mobley’s brother, showed up in a huge way this summer and it continued Monday night against Houston. He finished the game with 28 points and 11 rebounds. Mobley was also named the game MVP.

The final score was 99-78 to win the NBA 2K24 Summer League championship.

Sam Merrill finished with 27 points, while Emoni Bates finished with 19 points.

Since its inception in 2013 (where a champion was crowned), this is the first time Cleveland has won the Summer League championship.

Cavaliers have offered Collin Sexton a new contract

Cavaliers have offered Collin Sexton a new contract

Both sides have been at a stalemate when it comes to trying to get a new contract secured for Collin Sexton. Sexton wants more money, Cleveland is not buying into that, and now they are at crossroads trying to figure this one out. However, the Cavaliers have not stopped trying and their latest attempt to get him to extend is through this offer.

The offer is believed to be in the range of three years and $40 million dollars. So pretty much a three-year, $40 million dollar extension. Overall, Collin Sexton could be displeased with this offer as he wants “starting guard money.” Something the Cavs have been wary of giving him, for good reasons. Then it also makes sense why Sexton believes he is above their offer, for good reasons.

The restricted free agent does not have many suitors that are competing for him; it is actually just two teams… and they don’t seem as interested as he would hope for. The Spurs and Pacers are the only two known teams to have the cap room to sign Sexton without going through the sign-and-trade. However, neither side has been jumping up and down to pursue the guard.

Ultimately, Sexton believes that the offer Cleveland is giving him is beyond his market value and wants something higher. It has been reported that he and his camp will not bet against themselves just for the sake of getting a deal quick or at least securing it now. They will stay patient and wait to see how the rest of the league shapes up before making any more moves.

Collin Sexton has until October 1st to decide on his qualifying offer, or both sides can agree to extend that decision out further to give them more time. What happens if he accepts the qualifying offer? He signs for one year, $7.2 million. It acts as a prove-it year to the league to get more money, in a way. Also, if he accepts, then the following summer he will be an unrestricted free agent.

Luke Walton hired by Cavaliers to become new coach

Head coach JB Bickerstaff has done an excellent job with the Cavaliers so far, as Cleveland have been rising in the Eastern Conference and making the Play-In Tournament this year. They have been in rebuild mode since LeBron and Irving left Cleveland, along with Ty Lue (former head coach of Cleveland and current head coach of the Los Angeles Clippers), but now seem to be getting out of those stages.

Bickerstaff has an amazing team that has been through free agency, the draft, and trades in the season. Now he gets some more help through adding to his coaching staff, but this time with some championship knowledge.

Former Lakers and Kings head coach, Luke Walton, has been hired by the Cavaliers to become their new assistant coach. Adding him will give them depth knowledge of winning a championship, the process, and everything else included within that area of knowledge.

Walton has great insights from being a head coach, an assistant, and a player that will be vital to a coaching staff that has been built by Bickerstaff.
