The Cleveland Cavaliers shocked the basketball world as they completed a series of trades prior to Thursday's deadline as they totally shook their roster up. Fans took to their social media accounts to give their reactions after finding out about the deals, and now Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green was asked to share his thoughts about them.
He admitted that the Cavs' revamp was very interesting and that they made some good moves. When asked if he thinks the dynamics of their Finals opponents the past three years will change, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year said he is unsure of that as long as LeBron James is still with the team, they're in good hands.

It's no secret that the Cavaliers were looking to pull off some deals to bring in key pieces to their fold as they have not had a lot of success in the past 17 games. However, not a lot of people expected it to be this drastic, especially in the middle of the season. It's also hard to blame their front office for it, as they are used to winning and anything less than contending for the title is a lost season for them now, which could have led to their decision of pulling the trigger on the deadline deals.
Like what Green said, it will be interesting to see how much success the Northeast Ohio team will have with its new-look roster. The benchmark has been the Dubs the past three years and until they'll be able to show that they have improved with their new personnel, every move from here on out for the Cavaliers can be expected to be placed under the microscope.
