I always assume Chandler is going to get a long lingering injury, so I don't think I'd trade for him unless I'm going for a title immediately.  I do think he would help a ton though, and I think he's much better than Noel at this point.
He has been pretty consistent in his games played between 60 and 75 for almost his entire career.  I would continue to expect that range of games until he actually suffers some injury.
2025 Historical Draft - Cleveland Cavaliers - 1st pick

Starters - Luka, JB, Lebron, Wemby, Shaq
Rotation - D. Daniels, Mitchell, G. Wallace, Melo, Noah

Edit: We need to shed salary to be able to afford a max FA right now. It's not enough to just let Amir, JJ, Zeller etc walk. So if DA is serious about making a run at FAs this summer then he can't take on a contract like Chandler, that would make it impossible

Because top free agents swarm to .500 teams,   we need to tighten our record.

I literall just posted this in the Brooklyn thread but people are wildly overreacting to small sample sizes. When we get to 20 games we can start talking about whether we aren't as good as we thought we were, until then it's mostly noise.

Al Horford was a top FA and chose us, KD met with us, not the Knicks and not the Lakers. I'd say we are just fine as a destination
