We'll done. Howeve I have to say that song is on my top 10 list for Worst Songs of the 80s, Worst Metal Songs, and Worst Songs that get played at Sporting Events. :D

Tough to answer kbrow20's question as I don't know if it's the best move for both careers, but believe its a good situation for both of them.

Being a real Timberwolves fan has not been easy.I have a love for basketball and the Timberwolves will always be my team. I have tried many times to stop liking the Timberwolves but have failed.I'm really impressed with the other die hard fans on this board. I think that Glen and Flip love this team more than anyone.Michael Jordan once said the reason I have made so many game winning shots is because I was allowed many misses. I really believe that all the missed shots are going to help us start making those game winners.I really believe we are on the right path.

Surprised no one is commenting on Bill Simmons talking about he believes this whole Love for Wiggins trade was set up before Lebron announced he was going back to Cle. Makes no real difference if it is true but it does make this whole "Wiggins is not on the table" talk a little laughable in hindsight.

July 17th, Bill Simmons wrote on Grantland about why the cavs should wait before training wiggins for love...and Flip should wait to trade Love. No where in that article did he bring up that there was already a trade setup prior to the draft...in my humble, horribly biased opinion...his recent comments are just Bill Simmons attempting to look once again like he is the smartest guy in the room and that he can not be surprised by anything.

That's how negotiating works, you don't give up stuff you want until you have to.

LOL. That was probably the only time I liked the song.

I respect Europe. Even in RISK I say nothing disrespectful as I saw how much trouble it caused Newman and Kramer on the subway.

And yes kbrow20, this is The best for both their careers... But I hope KLove never achieve anything with the Cavs, whiny baby...

I would say it has to happen. I don't think its good for Wiggins to stay a Cav. I wouldn't worry about it. The only way it won't happen is if someone gets hurt. I bet your tickets and fans go up with the addition of Wiggins and the videos of LaVine. LaVine is someone that looks very solid and Wiggin's fans will join you guys. I hope you guys do make the playoffs in a few years and that Wiggins can prove that Wolves can f you up. What kind of player do you think Dieng will turn into. Do you see him as a lock down defender with the finishing touches around the rim like Robin Lopez or do you see him being a more athletic Kaman that is solid on offense and defense?

Did not know that Lopez was a lockdown defender... But I hope he looks something like you said Lopez is...

do you guys think Flip still accepts the Cavs offer if they drafted Parker or Embiid?

What level you think Wiggins will max out on?
1 Current Lebron
2 Past Cav Lebron that's current Lebron without post moves on offense and defense
3 Bird or Durant that is a solid defender with amazing offense
4 Kobe level that is a solid defender with above solid offensively
5 VC or DeRosen that is solid defense and solid offense
6 Gay that has slightly below solid offensively that is a solid defender
7 Batum or Ariza that is slightly above mediocre offensively and solid defensively
8 Wallace or Brewer that is mediocre offensively and solid defender

Lastly do you guys think Wiggins can be the best player on a Championship team or you think he can be the second or third option?

I think the best Wiggins can be is a Kobe Bryant, so based on that I think he can be the best player on a team since Kobe has won 5 rings.

Parker or Giannis yes, Embid no, he would have taken the Bulls deal.

Flip would've chose Wiggins number 1 if he owned the pick.. and yes he would take Parker as well.. Cleveland wouldn't trade a healthy Embiid.

An intriguing question is if the Cavs would have looked to trade for Love had Embiid not been injured.

Centers of his quality and potential are rare.
