There was apparently much drama in the Cleveland Cavaliers’ locker room over the last few weeks. So with star LeBron James potentially leaving in free agency this upcoming offseason, general manager Koby Altman put a torch to the roster with the hope that James saw a reason to stay.

And it was exquisite.

Gone are Isaiah Thomas, Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose, Jae Crowder, Iman Shumpert and Channing Frye. Joining James’ retooled crew are Jordan Clarkson, Larry Nance Jr., George Hill and Rodney Hood.

These dudes remain on the Cavaliers’ roster:

LeBron James
Kevin Love
Tristan Thompson
J.R. Smith
Kyle Korver
Ante Zizic
Jose Calderon
Jeff Green
Cedi Osman
John Holland
London Perrantes

What looked on Wednesday like a quiet trade deadline was suddenly a wild roller coaster, and that’s when basketball Twitter is at its best.
