It's awesome when my source breaks a story days before Stein. Philadelphia and Chicago are the two possible teams in a 3 way and both want Waiters. Problem with Philly is they aren't willing to give up picks in a deal.
Philadelphia is willing to take Waiters and Bennett, Bulls aren't and want Thompson. Philly if they take on Martin want picks while the Bulls were willing to give them. It's what I said yesterday, other than Wiggins, minny doesn't like what else Cleveland has.
Both. The Bulls either want Love or make sure Cleveland gives up as much as possible.
Minny IMO wants Gibson and Wiggins which is why I think Cleveland and Love is more likely.
The Bulls would swap Gibson for Waiters and Thompson in a heart beat. Also willing to take on Martin and sending out others, picks to make it work. Cleveland knows Bennett sucks and is trying to push him instead
