Will the Cleveland Cavaliers make any changes to their roster this summer?
If they do, will they be big, ground-breaking ones or just minor adjustments?
Speaking on “The Really Big Show” on ESPN Cleveland, Tony Rizzo and Aaron Goldhammer proposed a massive trade: Evan Mobley for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
They think the combination of Antetokounmpo and Donovan Mitchell would make the Cavs the most fearsome team in the East, and definitely capable of taking down the Indiana Pacers.

Following their exit from the playoffs, Cavaliers fans are wondering what it’ll take to get their team back on track.
There is a ton of talent on the roster and yet they were still easily taken down by the Pacers in the second round.
Many people are blaming the injuries that decimated the lineup, and that counts for something, but there is more at work here.
If the Cavaliers really want to rise above the Pacers, Boston Celtics, and others, they might have to make some tough choices and send away star players in order to bolster the roster.
Of course, a trade for Antetokounmpo won’t be easy.
If he really is leaving the Milwaukee Bucks, just about every team in the association will be picking up their phone to call and attempt a deal.
The Cavaliers would be one of many, many teams attempting to land the generational star.
On paper, the duo of Antetokounmpo and Mitchell sounds good, and great enough to trade Mobley.
But that doesn’t mean this dream scenario from Rizzo and Goldhammer will happen.
