But Suns contacting Cavs FO (includes Lebron lol)... about getting love... figuratively and literally. LeBron is OK with it apparently... again NOT my rumour, and hope to goodness me posting this wont derail it lol.

Well we all knew about Suns interest in Love but no one heard about a bledsoe trade for Love.

Kyrie at SG? But that defensive combo of Bron and his Mini-Me is tantalizing

Do it lebron.....I mean cavs.

Extra bonus, we don't have to see rich Paul crew anymore.

But what I read had more info.
Lebron apparently "supports" the proposal, he opted out to apply pressure to the Cavs.
Irving is an amazing PG... 6'3... could he play SG?... with Lebron and Bledsoe... I can see it.
It's far fetch... but I'm hopeful lol

Just imagine if instead of Dellavedova (and his painful offense) guarding Curry, you had Bledsoe guarding him. Plus if Beldsoe goes into Westbrook mode and goes all triple-double like we know he can, that has to be appealing to LeBron.

Honestly a trade to the cavs may be best for bledsoe. Let's be honest bledsoe didn't always give 100% on the court. Lebron would make him give extra effort. And they can take pictures together more often. There is no downside for lebron.

Deal makes a lot of sense, actually. The 2-guard talent in the East is pretty anemic, so they could move Bled to whoever the better offensive player is. Also keeps tread off Irving's tires after all his injuries. That seems like a good win/win for both teams given that Love wasn't doing a whole lot for them most of the season.

Calling Irving an amazing PG is kind of stretching it. Elite talent/scorer no doubt.There's a reason het takes a backseat to LeBron who facilitates the offense through the wing as a point forward. Kyrie is a more of primary ballhandler in that he needs to create for himself with his ridicolous handle and doesn't like to play off others. Still yet to blossom into a capable distributor

Spurs coach Gregg Popovic, forward Tim Duncan & guard Tony Parker expected to attend LaMarcus Aldridge meeting, a source told Yahoo Sports.

I'm sure the cavs FO is super duper excited about having the whole Lebron crew together including rich paul.

Stix · Post #788 » by **Stix** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 1:59 am

Hmm. Makes sense I suppose. Thompson is also part of the Rich Paul gang and is looking to get paid and a starting role. Would Love come here though? I guess we could get him on one of those 1 + 1 deals. That would be nice, he can bolt if it doesn't work out.

Cavs out: Love, Irving
Cavs in: Boogie, Bledsoe

Suns out: Bledsoe
Suns in: Love

Sac out: Boogie
Sac in: Irving

Who says no?

Works in the trade machine...

The whole Spurs team waiting for the meeting with Aldridge meeting.

"You ready to win a title, lamarcus?"

Cavs can then go sign Norris Cole and complete the set.

Except the fact that the cavs now have an all-star team.

Doesnt PHX already have max cap space? Why would they need to trade Bledsoe to get Love? If Love wants PHX, PHX signs him and keeps Bledsoe (if only as a trade asset). If Love doesnt want PHX, the Cavs cant force him to go

What rumors 1UP?

For Varejeo and a re-signed JR Smith. Duh.

Sadly, this probably is the offer.

If Lebron wants Bledsoe. Lebron gets Bledsoe.

That, and I think Cleveland has Love's bird rights? Or did that go away when he opted out?
