Things are seemingly falling apart in Cleveland and they don't seem to be getting better.
Even though the Cavs have won two straight games, they are 5.5 games back of the Celtics for first place in the East and on the defensive end, the team is 28th in defensive rating. Yes, they have the talent to turn things around, especially in the playoffs, but the season they've had is sparking the LeBron James is leaving conversations.
Until it happens, all we can do is speculate, but on Monday, another team reportedly joined the LeBron sweepstakes and they did by trading Blake Griffin.
The team we're talking about is obviously the Clippers and according to Marc Stein, the Clippers believe that trading Blake and others might help them land James.
Trading every big name player you have in the hopes of landing LeBron is a bold strategy to say the least and fans aren't buying it at all.
We're not saying it's not going to happen, but it seems highly unlikely it will at this point in our opinion. Then again, crazier things have happened like Kevin Durant going to the Warriors.
