How's this for a convenient potential swap? The Nets need a backup point guard after Shaun Livingston agreed to go to the Warriors. The Cavaliers have a backup to spare in Jarrett Jack.

But even more significantly, the Cavaliers need to make some cap room to potentially give LeBron James as much money as possible. And that's where a potential deal involving Jack could help.

Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the Cavaliers could theoretically take back Nets guard Marcus Thornton in a trade, but they'd then look for a team to then take Thornton:

How would the Nets replace Thornton's bench scoring? They would bring Bojan Bogdanovic, the Nets' second-round selection in 2011, to Brooklyn. The Post's Tim Bontemps reported he's "in discussions about coming to the NBA next season for the mini mid-level."
