Not to mention Kevin love puts up empty stats and doesn't know how to spell playoffs

No way the cavs want kirelinko in any trade unless minn gives them the 9 and move up for 19 or the two 2nds. Kirelinko is nothing the cavs want or need..too old, too much money, and no offense...should I go on? cavs would much rather have williams, or of course the obvious love, who i agree minn isnt trading

Your ignorance is showing!

he's right, just because AK is good for you doesn't guarantee that he is good for other teams

That's funny Empty stats? NBA GMs named him the best PF before the season. He was key to Team USA winning gold.

Varejao .. a top 3 rebounder in the league

What year was that? What I see is a guy that's been overpaid for his contribution three straight years.

reminds me of Kevin love, nice stats, can't stay healthy, overpaid for games played

Varejao
2012-13 361 RB, 96th in NBA
2011-12 287 RB, 94th in NBA
2010-11 301 RB, 123rd in NBA
2009-10 578 RB, 36th in NBA
2008-09 581 RB, 33rd in NBA
2007-08 399 RB, 81st in NBA
2006-07 545 RB, 37th in NBA
2005-06 235 RB, 175th in NBA
2004-05 257 RB, 151st in NBA

Kevin Love
2012-13 252 RB, 160th in NBA
2011-12 734 RB, 2nd in NBA
2010-11 1112 RB, 1st in NBA
2009-10 658 RB, 24th in NBA
2008-09 734 RB, 9th in NBA

Wow. Couldn't be more wrong on that one! Love's missed the Top 25 one year. Varejao's best finish in nine years was 33rd. What a shame when people insert facts to your put downs, huh?

And Varejao is certainly no "Top 3 Rebounder" in the league.

No he isn't. Justifying it is only making a dumb comment worse. So to you two Cavs fans the 19th pick=the 9th pick and Andrei Kirilenko on an expiring contract. Got it. Sig worthy comments sure do increase around draft time.

Do we get to say the same thing as Kyrie Irving yet?

How convenient that you use total rebounds for a guy that only played 25 games. Dude was averaging 14.5 per game the first quarter of the season...before he was injured.

"Convenient?"

Is he paid for a quarter of a season?
Do you only count wins for a quarter of a season?

Is it INCONVENIENT for you that in nine seasons, he's never been higher than 33rd?!? In nine freakin' years?

Nobody is going to value him next season as "3rd in the NBA in rebounds" in trade when he's never finished a season higher than 33.

Dude I'm not here to debate about Varejao's career to be honest. All I said was that last year he was top 3 before he went down. I didn't bring up the amount of games, or his #'s from the past 5 years. Players turn it around sometimes later on in their career, and he appeared to be kicking it up a notch. That's all. You may think it doesn't help his value, but it sure as hell doesn't hurt it when you rebound at that rate despite it being only 25 games.

Nets got Favors, and crummy picks.

#3 overall in 2011 draft is crummy?

Oops, forgot about that one...still isn't equal to two #4's, a #1, and Varejao who was killing it before he went down this year.
