I think you should do your research next time. The Cavaliers received Larry Nance and Mike Sanders for Kevin Johnson, Mark West, Tyrone Corbin, and a draft pick which ended up being Dan Majerle.

So in exchange for Nance (because Sanders doesn't count), the Suns received a top point guard (better than Mark Price), a good rebounding / shot blocking center, an excellent defensive small forward, and an excellent defensive player who could also score. That Cleveland regime was obviously a poor judge of talent and grossly overpaid for Nance's services.

I'll concede that at the time the general conscencus was that it was good a trade for Cleveland, but Phoenix obviously knew what they were doing and within two seasons that trade was a joke.
