The Tristan Thompson saga is full of sound and fury but basically signifying nothing for either him or the Cleveland Cavaliers. Last week we covered a report that said Thompson was interested in going to the Toronto Raptors next year. Today comes news, via Rich Bucher of Bleacher Report (transcribed by PBT) that Thompson wants a max deal or will take the Qualifying Offer:
A league source tells me that his agent, Rich Paul, has already made it clear to the Cleveland Cavaliers that Thompson will not sign a long-term deal unless it is a max deal.
