Jesus Christ dude were not trading Waiters, Wiggins, and Bennett for Love. Yes, Love is amazing but he's not worth 2 number one picks and a number 4 when he could bolt after this season. They'll get Wiggins + salary + some picks.

As long as none of those picks are a 1st from Philly I would be very happy with that deal.
The feedback I've received from our fans is they understand we are trying to build something great. Good decisions come from having a broad set of options and making tough calls. We will do it unblinkingly. We have to be willing to take smart risks-Hinkie

Cleveland would be very stupid for doing this trade.

And you would have to blame LeBron for gutting your roster for a guy who can opt out after 1 year (Love)

lol, it has always been a win/win for Cavs supporters, while Minny Fans can start hyping up the very prospect they called overrated.

Waiters has the talent but inconsistent, Bennett has not proven anything in the NBA, and Wiggins has not played a single minute in the league. In reality, that's not a lot give up for a young All-Star like Love.

There's no way that happens. Wiggins and Bennett should be enough. We're not trading both our SG's its just not happening. All these fans of other teams thinking they can make it a 3 way trade and screw us over are gonna be disappointed. We're not gonna trade pennies on the dollar.

Compared to the other offers on the table? Yes it is.

Waiters will not be a part of the deal if Wiggins is. That is damn near a guarantee.

Dude he's been in the league for 2 F-ing years man. He's gonna have some off nights but he averaged 20pts,4ast,2rebs post all star break. He's not just a toss in. Lebron mentioned him in his letter. That's like immunity.

that actually would be a lot to give up. New Orleans, Orlando, Denver and OKC all got worse packages when they traded their superstars.

I do agree it's always been Wiggins + Bennett for Love...... and Waiters was never a part of the deal.


But.....


What if the Cavs received Brewer and Wroten along side Love in this deal?

Letting the wolves bend you over and get wiggins for a player forcing out is already pennies on the dollar. I guess everyone figures why not see what else they can get.

Review of general return for a player forcing out (found on wolves board).

Incredible overpay if it happens. Hate the thought of wiggins in the west, ugh. East is such a dumpster fire.

But why throw in Waiters if you don't have to? Wiggins by himself is the best offer that the Wolves can get. Wiggins+salary filler for Love is a better offer than Taj/Mcdermott or Barnes/Picks. I truthfully don't see why the Cavs should even include any 1st rounders if they're not getting any other rotation player in the deal.
