I wonder if Rodney Hood's performance [and shooting] last night is something that could help swing the pendulum toward the Cavs organization's favor.  IMO, the best way for Cleveland to contend with GW is to continue to embrace small ball.  Love is more than adequate as a small ball 5.  And then you want a bunch of versatile, interchangeable parts who can shoot.  Hood / Nance are young and offer potential.  Look how well a guy like Jeff Green has been the past two series for them, despite the inconsistent minutes.

They'd need to s-can JR Smith, and replace him with another shooter who is less unreliable / inconsistent, and won't bring the same kind of baggage to the locker room.  A guy like Wayne Ellington [who NineOneSeven's brought up above] might offer the same sort of benefits, with fewer headaches.

And the Cavs also have the #9 pick -- where they could pick up another outstanding small ball piece.   Forget Colin Sexton or Trae Young -- they should go with Bridges from Villanova [if he's still available] -- another versatile player who can shoot, handle, and play defense.

Is the sum total of all that more than what the Lakers and other potential landing destinations might be able to offer?
