this was exact text I got: "my sources are telling me the trade for love may go through today. Wiggins and Benett probably gone. Don't say anything on FB (naturally I told you guys lol), you can mention a trade but not who will be part of it).sleeper;1636219 wrote:I sure as fuck hope not. Both #1 overall picks the last 2 years for Love? That would be terrible.

So dumb. Hopefully the Cavs aren't that stupid.ohiobucks1;1636222 wrote:this was exact text I got: "my sources are telling me the trade for love may go through today.

Again, Love will not re-sign in Minnesota so their only option to recoup value is to trade him. Love can essentially pick where to be traded to, so why do we need to give up 2 #1 overall picks? Love isn't worth that, not even close.

This would really piss me the fuck off. I also highly doubt this is true. Sorry OB I'm calling bullshit on this one.

I hope we get Love tonight and somehow Wiggins is not part of it. P.S - unlike Lebron news, this isn't coming from Maverick directly so hopefully it doesn't turn out to be B@#$@

Has 24 hours to prove right or wrong. I can't vouch, obviously. But the person that told me is really well connected to Lebron and the Cavs.

It's hard to believe it's true. They honestly have no leverage. I hope Love just walks so Minny learns their lesson.

That is going to be horrendous. Wiggins is too good and Love can be had for way cheaper (and nothing if you wait a year)...

I just asked and was told "they want to win now, can't get Love extension without getting rid of salary". Is that bullshit? This guy is not a basketball guy, just a rich dude who is close with Lebron and some other cavs.
He is 100% confident it's happening tonight... Guess we now play the waiting game.

I'll believe it when I see it. There have been numerous reports that stated that Wiggins is untouchable.ohiobucks1;1636240 wrote:I just asked and was told "they want to win now, can't get Love extension without getting rid of salary".

Fair, just figured i'd tell you guys what I heard. I am not sure whether i'd rather be right and get love, or wrong and keep wiggins.

Lebron

That's a pretty loaded team. I think we could easily win 60 games with that squad. We'd certainly shorten our window of success though...

Also, why does the deal have to be done today? lol. The cavs have plenty of time.

I think the most realistic trade is the 3 team trade that was posted a couple pages back.

Last I heard, Miller was far from a sure thing. Seemed to be leaning towards other options according to Twitter.

Blatt just publicly stated wiggins is safe. Why would he say that then trade him? You don't do that

Probasketballdraft ‏@Probballdraft 2h Nothing w/ Kevin Love is imminent. Sources continue to say Flip Saunders believes Wolves can deal him closer to deadline & get same back.

We will see. Nobody had any reason to lie to me. They've also never lied before. I wouldnt have been told that a KLove trade was on, if it wasnt seriously being talked about, that i'm 100% sure of.
