This is kinda what I'm referring to. Sterling is cheap but I'm not so sure he's cheap to the extent he gives away his best player like the Grizzlies (interesting article about this on Yahoo sports today btw where Michael Heisley wonders whether he could have gotten a better deal: NEWSFLASH: HELL YES YOU DUMBASS!). Certain plenty of teams would be willing to try and top that offer since Brand is a proven 20-10 guy (though on a bad team) with a good rep around the league apparently.

They can basically take a good player straight up for Szcerbiak and picks

That's optimistic. Pretty much anyone in the league probably knows how limited Szcerbiak is and how bad his body is at this stage, there's no way someone gives up a "good" player for that, especially since the Cavs picks aren't going to be in the lottery anytime soon. The only "good" players would likely have their own inherent flaws.
