Bob knows ball.
Highlights: People love trades, content, etc. The correct decision is the one that makes the fanbase uncomfortable.
DM and other teams need help to get him. He’s not going in UFA, so we get something from bidding him out.
No one except Miami gets put over the top with DM soon. Which is good for us and leverage if they go all in.
Panic button fans need to get shit in a box for pushing the button.
A year can change a lot – whole world was trading KAT and half was trading Embiid last year.

His opinion is correct. Why get gun shy and trade Mitchell when we can still win games with him. Also who would we draft if we tanked? Makes no sense to me.
Yeah, unless your hand is forced or you get the world for him, there’s no reason to trade Mitchell now.
Remaining sked is not difficult. Even with these guys playing now (barring yet another injury), I still see us as no less than a 4 or 5 by time Evan and DG return.
Cavs have the 4th easiest remaining SoS at .480, having played the 6th toughest schedule to this point.
Only super tough games remaining are 4 against the Bucks, 3 against the 76ers, 2 against TWolves, 1 Denver, 1 Boston.
Compare that to 4 against Wizards, 2 Pistons, 3 Hornets, 2 Spurs, etc.
Cavs record isn’t great, but considering how many games rotation players have missed and how tough the opponents have been it’s not as terrible as it looks.
The only red flag to me is how inconsistent the team can be. They can either look like a legit contender or just a bad team, and there doesn’t seem to be an obvious reason why (outside of nights where the shots just aren’t falling).
If Bob tells me to shit in a box, I shit in a box. Merry Christmas Mom, maybe this will teach you to be a more positive Cavs fan.
We have like the 3rd easiest schedule left and are currently the 6 seed with Mobley and Garland coming back in either the middle of January or February so there’s not really a need to trade Don right now unless the package is too good to be true
