Probably not. I'd take a TPE and be completely fine with it to be honest. Maybe a team that needs to meet the minimum salary requirement might take them.

I don't know that any team wants either one of those guys to be honest. Blake isn't that bad actually, just not worth 4 million dollars that's all. And of course Duhon isn't worth a bag of peanuts.

There's a lot of luck of involved. In every situation thus far we've used assets to move/acquire pieces. First was draft picks, second was Andrew Bynum and filler, and third was the money we had available.

This time you want Mitch to trade crap for something somewhere? I don't know if even Mitch can do that. It took a first round pick to sell Fisher for goodness sake, and Blake is worse than that.

if you can turn Luke's 2 year contract into Sessions expiring, you can do ANYTHING.

His 3pt % is better than Meeks, If we could dump Clark, Duhon or Blake, Walker could be decent insurance piece should Ebanks not live up to expectations.

^^ Agreed. Of all Mitch's magic wand feats, that was one of the tops. Luke freaking Walton.

Even with that we had to send a pick I think right? We had something of value attached to him. The most valuable thing we can attach to Blake is Duhon...

Cavs Buying Out Omri Casspi?

john telich ‏@JohnTelich8

Source: #Cavs likely to buy out Omri Casspi from contract. Hearing this may be a mutual desire.

Sam Amico ‏@SamAmicoFSO

If Cavs do in fact part ways with Casspi, it's likely because Luke Walton will not agree to buyout. Don't want both. Would prefer Casspi.

There have been whispers this summer Casspi wants to leave NBA and return overseas. Walton, on other hand, knows this is his final contract.
