And the Timberwolves will just let him walk rather than take back garbage.

Face reality here, you can't get Kevin Love by him signing there on his own. You need a trade.

The Timberwolves still hold all the cards, despite Love's pathetic ploy.

His suitors aren't drying up so you can hold on to Wiggins and get a superstar for a bunch of shit.

It's just become laughable anymore. But no way are the Cavs going to get him for next to nothing. Waiters, Thompson and Bennett with draft picks are a garbage haul.

The Cavs would have to do some shuffling to sign him next year. But we have the extra picks to package with players to free up space. It's no where close to impossible. Wouldn't be the worst thing for Blatt to play with this young talent and see what he's got. The Big3 in Miami didn't win it their first year either.

Cavs have cap flexibility. Rust is right on this one.

It's cool if you want to hold on to him for a year and get a worse draft pick. Or ship him off to a higher bidder for a one year rental. Gotta do what ya gotta do. No reason to trade Wiggins or much else for someone you know you're getting no matter what.

Before I was alright with trading one of Wiggins/Waiters and one of Bennett/Thompson and some picks with whatever other scraps. But now I wouldn't even give up Waiters... Who I don't think LeBron wants to lose anyways.

The Cavs traded away LeBron ****ing James for only two first round picks and two second round picks. Granted it was after the season when it was known he was going to Miami, but it's similar in the sense it's known Love is going to Cleveland at some point.

Getting bird rights is huge. The cavs will take a huge haircut taking him in free agency.

the MLB and the NBA should both have a franchise tag just like the NFL

in the NBA you can only use it on the same player twice, he gets a 1 year max deal under the terms of the tag...

so your stud can't just leave after his rookie contract...he has to risk 2 1 year max deals before he can hold his franchise hostage or just take the max extension

sick of the carmelo/dwight/klove/lebron decision shit that totally puts small markets at a huge disadvantage.

Cleveland is just ****ing lucky LeBron is from Akron.

and you can't use a tag on a guy who has accrued 7 years or more of service time in the NBA

It's not similar at all.

He is beyond reeruned

Says the guys who got butt hurt when I said Love would come to Cleveland and we wouldn't have I give up much. Looks like I might have been right, again.
