Um... okay. And go ahead and tell me what is wrong with the last two trades I proposed.

If what RustShack posted is true, it sounds like the issue isn't so much what Wiggins wants as it is the salary cap.

An unsigned rookie has a cap hold based on where he was picked, sort of like the rookie wage scale in the NFL. The final contract can range between 80% and 120% of the cap hold, but in practice almost all rookies sign for close to 120%. So it's possible that Cleveland needs that extra 20% to make the salaries match.

I'm just wondering: How is KC's attitude towards the Kings? Did you choose a new team when they left, in case you were already around at that time? Do people hate on them, because they left KC or are some guys still following them? Or do people even care any longer, since they have been very bad for a relatively long time now.

I'm just interested since most people in Seattle hate on the Thunder since they left!

Which was getting completely ****ed in the 2002 WCF against the Lakers and being completely irrelevant the rest of the time.

And the Cavs have officially signed their draft picks. Ray Allen is also still leaning towards signing with the Cavs.

Let the 30 day clock begin.

I thought he was holding out so he couldn't be traded.

He's had his contract and could have signed earlier.

@SamAmicoFSO: Continue to hear, despite Andrew Wiggins' name likely coming up in talks, Cavs have not offered him in any trade proposal.

So I ordered a Wiggins jersey a few days after the draft, it was supposed to be shipped within a week but they delayed it twice(assuming because of the trade discussion). Hypothetically if he is traded, you would think they would do a trade in right? I already have an Irving jersey and LeBron's 23.

SNR is a big TWolves fan. He's been fighting me tooth & nail on this. He thinks the trade makes total sense.

The Cavs were looking for a center and obviously Love. Sixers were looking at Waiters. The Wolves were looking at Wiggins. The Sixers were looking to unload Thaddeus Young. The Mavs were insistent on moving Martin and Barrea and the Sixers are a team that needs to add payroll. The second trade I mentioned assumes Wiggins doesn't want to play in Minnesota.

And the trades I proposed hit the NBA $ requirement for trades.

So apart from your just being a contrarian, go ahead and tell me what part doesn't make any sense. Other than in my first example, I might swap out Embiid/Noel and change that to Dieng maybe.

Stephen A Smith reporting KLove told teams that he will only sign with the Cavs next year is HUGE. No leverage = keeping Wiggins
