On February 8th, 2018 in the final hours before the 2017-18 NBA Trade Deadline, the Cavaliers front office, namely rookie GM Koby Altman, took part in a series of trades that rocked the Cavaliers’ universe in what was initially a fresh and exciting fashion. In a combination of three separate trades, Altman rid Cleveland of Dwyane Wade, Isaiah Thomas, Derrick Rose, Jae Crowder, and unfortunately, Channing Frye. In return the team received George Hill, Rodney Hood, Larry Nance, Jr., and Jordan Clarkson. In what amounted to a period of about two hours of time, the Cavaliers announced essentially a whole new roster with which to surround LeBron James.
