Re: Cavaliers trying to trade for Butler
Cavs want to trade? Sure, why not? Butler and Wade for Kyrie Irving and Love.
Butler for Irving is sort of fair straight. They dump Love and Lebron gets his friend back. and he has the new version of the 3 amigos!
Bulls would just need to trade Robin Lopez and don't keep Rondo. and go after Iggy (for max of 2 year contract or else pass).

Re: Cavaliers trying to trade for Butler
One other thing, just say no to Kevin Love. Don't talk yourself into it. Just say no.

Humm I thought the same, but Love for Wade is a winner situation. Love for Butler is sure dumb.

Re: Cavaliers trying to trade for Butler
Butler won't put Cavs or Celtics over the hump and us trading Butler is our best bet as far as us contending for higher seed and deeper playoff runs at this point. Butler for Love and Shumpert is not bad and then go after another free agent to bring in. Wade Love and Gay would not be bad for example. I rather have a solid 4-5 seed or higher team than have Jimmy and then scrubs fighting for our life for 8th seed every year.

Yeah 3 amigos alright...until James realize that Wade and Butler will kill the spacing of the team unlike Irving and Love.

Kevin Love is already 28 years old. If we are to trade Butler to Cavs, it has to be Kyrie...
Besides. Cavs is afraid to lose Lebron and he wants Love gone for a while. Use as leverage to get Love for Wade.

Bulls are talking to Cleveland but it isn't about Butler.

Umm....makes no sense. Unless they trade for Wade and force him to opt out to clear room.

Re: Cavaliers trying to trade for Butler
Cavs obviously have incentive to drive up Boston price. Wolves are probably only other legit team with assets besides Celtics. All these leaks are designed to get Boston to make up their mind. I think something happens in next 24 hours to give us time to scout top 5 talent before Thursday.

I wish but LeBron is not that stupid bro lol I believe that LBJ wants no part of Wade in Cleveland at this point in his career. Lebron knows he needs all the shooters he can get to compete better with Golden State.

Love for an opted-in Wade?

If not Jimmy them, it is what I suggested: Wade to play with LeBron for Love.
Or wade for Cleveland, Love to someone and a pick to the bulls.
I'm not opposed with any of this scenario. Although I'm not a fan of Love, a straight Love to Wade would work for me... better if Cavs takes one or two of our crap players too
But this is crazy ! Wade cant guard anyone. It is actually embarrassing watching his lack of effort at times. Wade wont help Cavs to beat the warriors

We aren't getting just picks back. We're getting some kind of salary back and thats not a good thing. Rather ditch Wade after another year than dump him for some other salaries.
