In this week’s edition of Sir Charles in Thought, we explore numerous NBA storylins including the struggling LA Clippers

Derrick Rose is trying to figure out his NBA future. The Cleveland Cavaliers are considering a big trade. The Detroit Pistons have driven great players. The Boston Celtics are here to stay. All of that, and more for this week’s Sir Charles In Thought.

Cavs looking at DeAndre Jordan?

Here’s a tasty rumor for ya: The Cavaliers are considering a trade of Tristian Thompson for the Los Angeles Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan. Um, okay. Jordan is probably the better player, but I’m not sure about this move.

From a defensive standpoint, this would be great. Also, Thompson has not lived up to his contract. But, we already knew that would be the case. Maybe LeBron wants to eliminate the Kardashian noise. We don’t know.

What we do know is that the Cavs should go for the trade so long as they don’t have to give up too much because while Jordan is the better player, this move likely wouldn’t push the Cavs over the top to defeat the Warriors.

Take at look at this article on if this trade makes sense.
