This would have been interesting if the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to pull this off.
According to Marc Berman of the New York Post, the Cavs reportedly tried to trade for current Houston Rockets and former Knicks veteran point guard Pablo Prigioni during the NBA Trade Deadline.
According to a source, the Cavaliers made a big pitch at the trade deadline for Knicks point guard Pablo Prigioni . The Knicks instead dealt Prigioni to Houston with a trade exception for a package that included Alexey Shved and two second-rounders. Prigioni helped Houston in the wake of Patrick Beverly’s injury and could have come in handy for the Cavaliers after the loss of Kyrie Irving.
With Kyrie Irving out, Prigioni could have been huge in this series versus the Golden State Warriors.
