I'm not trying to totally shit on Love, and he is a good passer and scorer, but there are just other players at his position who can do that at a high level while still providing better rim protection.

As a Cavs fan, trust me, for some reason you're the only one that can see this. Let's also not forget that Wiggins costs only $5.5M. Love will cost $20M. The Cavs can basically get Wiggins and a $15M player at the same cap charge as Love. For some reason, people keep treating this like it's a Wiggins/Bennett for Love trade straight up.
