Cavs Get: Avery Bradley, Anthony Tolliver 

Pistons Get: Isaiah Thomas, Channing Frye, First-Round Pick 

In the even that the Detroit Pistons elect to shop Avery Bradley, which would most likely indicate that the team doesn’t believe they can afford him this offseason, the Cleveland Cavaliers should jump at the opportunity to land the defensive-minded two guard.

Bradley is exactly the type of player that would make a difference for the Cavs. He shoots the deep ball well and is one of the best perimeter defenders in the league.

Detroit would get a replacement for Reggie Jackson in Isaiah Thomas, Channing Frye’s expiring contract and a first-round pick for the trouble.
