Lol man I hope the cavs do it tho just so these melo apologist can see first hand how their guy still struggles even with lebron and kyrie.
SAS says that, but he knows deep down that's still not enough, because it isn't. They didn't need another ISO scorer, they needed to be able to stop the freight train coming at them, and they barely caused the W's to sweat. Melo might make a series slightly more entertaining, but in no way does swapping he for Love put them on the same level of a Durant upgraded W's.
Melo would make them work more as he too wouldn't be dependent on LeBron to create a shot for him.
They would definitely need a better defensive c, sg and scheme though.
I would look into Tyson if I were them.
...and if they could pull Lee and O'Quinn from us along with Melo they could be on to something.
Tyson/KOQ
Melo/Frye
LeBron/Korver
Lee/JR
Irving/
They have to try to break down Iman, Love and Thompson for multiple players.
