3 team trade (Atlanta, Minnesota, Houston)
Atlanta gets Love and Mbah a Moute from Minnesota, Motiejunas from Houston
Hawks sends Paul Millsap and DeMarre Carroll to Minnesota, Lou Williams and Mike Muscala to Houston
Houston gets Williams and Muscala from Atlanta, Barea from Minnesota
Rockets sends Omer Asik and Jeremy Lin to Minnesota, Donatas Motiejunas to Atlanta
Minnesota gets Millsap and Carroll from Atlanta, Asik and Lin from Houston
TWolves sends Kevin Love and Luc Mbah a Moute to Atlanta, JJ Barea to Houston
Picks and cash could be added but this^ is the main structure to bring in Love to Atlanta.
Houston maintains cap flexibility, in my opinion, to still be major free agency players this summer or in 2015
Atlanta gets to pair Love with Horford to from a deadly inside-outside combo upfront.
Minnesota gets back what I personally think is enough return for Kevin Love. Millsap, Asik, and Pekovic is still a solid front-court rotation. If Asik doesn't pan out or doesn't mix well with Pek at the 5, at least Asik's expiring deal is an attractive trade piece
Kevin Love to ATL

Re: Kevin Love to ATL
Considering the fact that Milsap and Asik are both FA's and its unlikely they can afford to keep both with Pek under contract long term the Wolves would be far better off hoping they can convince Love to resign. Much rather risk Love walking than do this deal. If Love does walk the Wolves could target Milsap as a FA next offseason.

Re: Kevin Love to ATL
Atlanta isn't getting Love for what they're giving up here. I think there are much better returns out there than what Minnesota is receiving. Trading a franchise cornerstone like this puts them on the treadmill.

OP's offer is the equivelent of the Wolves offering ATL Pek and 13 for Horford.

OP is just trolling
