In a massive team makeover, the Cleveland Cavaliers let it be known in no uncertain terms that they’re sincere about competing for this year’s NBA title.
Cleveland acquired Rodney Hood and George Hill in a three-way deal with the Utah Jazz and Sacramento Kings, totally re-making their roster for this year’s playoff push. In addition, they sent Iman Shumpert and a 2020 second-round pick via the Miami Heat to the Kings in the deal.
