Don't know why they wont just go after another 4 that wont cost as much (Horford, Milsap, Favors,even Josh Smith etc)

Even though I think he's overrated to the extent those guys aren't Kevin Love. Love is not only a monster on the boards but is the ultimate floor spacer. Someone who doesn't mind chucking 6 up a game but making them at a large clip. Imagine the spacing with Kyrie whose a shooter but LeBron also who can catch fire from deep. S*** would be the ultimate 2K cheesefest.​

Wiggin is unknown while Love is proven. I would trade Wiggins because we already got bron and kyrie. Plus it would help us make the team better contenders right away.
Love has proven what though? All he's proven is he can put up bi numbers on garbage squads. Andrew Wiggins and Kevin Love have had the same amount of playoff success. I'm not a big "potential" guy but I'd rather see what Wiggins might become right now. The way LeBron was talking in that essay he really may not even be expecting to compete for the title next season anyway.

Yeah breh, a 25 year old power forward putting up 26/14 ain't that great.

nikkas be saying the darnest things today. In that other thread nikkas said Pau Gasol a career 18 n 10 player who just came off a season putting up 18 n 10 will do nothing to improve the reigning NBA Champion spurs. This same spurs coached by Greg Popoovich who has Kawhi Leonard looking like the 2nd coming, and rejuvenated the career of Boris Diaw banking him 22million. But when it comes to Pau Gasol he, nope he won't be able to do anything with him. :snoop:

I believe that Cleveland should trade Andrew Wiggins for Kevin Love. In my opinion, it would allow Wiggins to reach his potential faster. While learning from Bron would be ideal for any player, I think it'd stunt his development for a pretty simple reason: he won't get as many minutes now that he's playing with LeBron, and when he does he'll be under the microscope for the same reason (being Bron's teammate). I think all the pressure-free minutes he'd get in Minnesota would be great. Jabari, for example, won't be expected to do shyt in Milwaukee right away. If Wiggins doesn't like it there, dip after his rookie deal ends (he's only 19, after all) as a max player.

As for Cleveland, this would solidify them as the best team in the East & establish a championship core of Irving-James-Love for the next few years. Although LeBron is no longer on my team & I'd hate to see this happen, it makes the most sense.

Rubio running a fast break with Lavine & Wiggins running on the wings :wow:

I actually think Cleveland is the ideal situation for him. He won't have the pressure to lead a franchise here as he would with the wolves. Having the best player in the world teach you how to be a champion is always a plus. And as he matures both physically and mentally,he'll take on a larger role as LeBron cuts back. Same with Kyrie.

I understand both sides of it. I don't think Cleveland's bad at all, but that trading Wiggins would work out better for both parties:yeshrug:
