I say pass on the trade. Next year go after Marc Gasol while keeping young talent.

Yep.

Plenty of stars will want to play (and win) with Lebron. Don't go all in for the fantasy all star with zero playoff appearances.

Lebron max, kyrie max, you want to keep the "young talent" and sign Marc Gasol?


Are you at all familiar with the concept of a salary cap?

You keep bringing up loves lack of playoff appearances as a knock against him, where as Kyrie has just as many as him with worst stats and same amount of defense. My point is you can't just knock another guy for it where our own star has done the exact same thing.

In a previous post I mentioned kyrie in the same category as Love. Would you trade wiggins for kyrie? I sure as hell wouldn't. But we already have kyrie so excuse me if I don't put a little asterisk after every comment to include all the players I also wouldn't trade for every time I mention Love.

I would rather trade Irving than Wiggins.

The possibility of this was brought up on the radio this morning. Don't see it happening but it was discussed.

I agree with this. I'd also rather not trade either though. Wiggins>Irving>Love

Irving is more expendable though. We have a better pg, that's bigger, stays healthy, etc ...

lbj at pg, wiggins at SG, miller/jones at the 3, TT/bennet at pf, Andy/love at 5 is a better team probably than one with irving.

I think the Cavs will be fine either way. If they get Love, they probably become favorites for as long as they can keep him, Lebron, and Irving signed and happy. But who knows, Wiggins could become the best player in the league after Lebron and Durant peak. And it should do wonders for him playing with Lebron. But I'd like to see them hold out a little bit longer. The TWolves need to ship Love more than we need to land him.

I agree with you. In the east, everyone is a contender. Plus, maybe losing Stephenson will actually help them. Wasn't that one of the theories last season that the other players were irritated with him?

Trade involving Andrew Wiggins & Anthony Bennett for Kevin Love was "near completion" but Wolves asked for more. Cavs declined. (@RealGM)

Lol. I hope The Cavs break off talks and Minny gets fucked. Wiggins for Love straight up is enough.

I'm not a huge fan of Wiggins and Bennett for Love but I wouldn't of been as upset as most on here. Them still wanting more has pushed me to the "GFY I hope he just walks for nothing you fucking douchebags' camp.

I feel like Minnesota now has the advantage in this trade. They know LeBron wants love, and that Cleveland will do what it takes to get him. it's going to come down to who blinks first, and Cleveland has kind of already by now saying Wiggins is available. I bet Cleveland throws in a first and it gets done this weekend.

I call BS on this Wiggins, and Klay being available.

I have a feeling Flip Saunders is this mysterious "source" putting all this stuff out here, hoping to get the other team to actually up the offer.

Just read the Chris Broussard article. He's an idiot and has no sources.
