I'm wit you on this, but it's not gonna happen.

As much as I'd love to sit here and be like

C Pek /Dieng
PF Bennett /Mbah a Moute
SF Muhammad /Brewer
SG Wiggins /Martin
PG Rubio /Dellavedova

LaVine stashed in Sioux Falls

PLAYOFFS!

It's not gonna happen. I'm OK with that so long as Love doesn't get moved at all, but expecting nothing is being optimistic at this point.
Y'all not making the playoffs with the roster in The West. :childplease:

If you're the Cavs and this opportunity is actually there for you, you HAVE to take it. Their championship window is now. Wiggins might be good in a few years, but Love will contribute for that championship immediately. You don't bank on Wiggins hitting his stride as soon as LeBron's starting to decline.

Bron might have fukked up with this move....if the cavs don't go after love...I know he said in his letter that he doesnt expect to win now and that he is willing to grind for it...but let's be realistic...this is Bron....one of the last things he said after losing to the spurs is..."I want to win...now"....that shyt he wrote was to come off like a nice patient guy to the team....if these nikkas arent flourishing within the first 2 months it's gonna be problems in that bum ass city...

That's a better roster than the one that won 40 this year. Playing better players more, getting better coaching and weeding out crap is gonna make them worse?

But they're not gonna trade Kev at this point or at any point barring a Rubio injury so it's all moot.

I never said they were going to worse but that's not a playoff team. Way too many greenhorns.

So they're gonna win more games but still not make the playoffs? (I'm not guaranteeing shyt, but it's not like they'll be much worse with or without Love there. That rests on the PG and whether Flip will not do the shyt Rick did)

If everyone is improving out West, it just means everyone's gonna beat each other up unless there's 5 or 6 60 loss squads.

Let's be real. Winning one chip in Cleveland is worth more than the two in Miami:sas1:
And he'll win more with the Swagaliers than he did in a city that he never gave a fukk about:sas2:

















Enjoy being mediocre and watch us get y'all pick:umad: Now I see why #lwo hated some of y'all arrogant asses:banderas:

I got nothing but love for Bron....but let's be real...the Heat were a competent center and a decent wade from winning the title again.....The cavs have a bunch of young, unproven, never seen the playoff unless it was on tv ass players....he's going to have a harder time getting to the finals than if he stayed in miami and give us the opportunity to get a legit center on the team....facts only

but i ain't here to rain on ya parade.....enjoy the king coming home and whatever else comes to the cavs from here on out....

when we meet...whether it's regular season or playoffs....:ucku::bustback:

That Heat team benefited from a weak east. Now some of those young teams will benefit from experience and free agency additions. The Heat was getting:old: and lacked depth. And at least the cavs got rebounding. And a young stud who can take over a game instead of a:flabbynsick: wade.

I'm convinced people who say Wiggins for Love have no clue about the salary cap and how it works. In your mind it sounds good until you look at the salaries and contracts on paper. Love for Wiggins would make our team like the Heat and we want to avoid that as we know a big 3 doesn't guarantee a championship.Malta explained it perfectly here.

So why get rid of a gang of young players if LeBron is getting older, does that really even make sense? Why not keep the 19, 21, 22 year olds you have now and as Bron ages they develop and pick up the slack.

If they trade for Love, it requires multiple young players on favorable deals going out with no other way of refilling those positions because they are capped out.

Y'all know the cap gonna be 67-68 million next year?

They have team options for Bennett/Waiters. Other than that it is clear.

They can get Love outright next year.:yeshrug:

Wiggins and Lebron would be the best defensive wing-duo in the NBA. Just because his offensive game isn't polished right now doesn't mean you forget what he brings to the table already. Plus, it's not like they're a great defensive team anyway.

Man. The Cavs really are about to eat. It's crazy that we're even discussing this when a couple of months ago, Kyrie was on his national fukk Cleveland campaign.

I believe they should keep Wiggins. And sacrifice a goat every day and hope that Bennett develops into a starting 4.
