Don't tell me what I'd prefer to do. I do what I do.

Man, just like 1 or 2 weeks ago CLE was something like 60-1. That woulda been a hell of a bet.

I saw someone tweet a pic of their bet slip on Friday I believe. I forget exactly what it was, but he put like $100 down to win $3000 or something just hoping he'd come back. Solid bet at least

i would trade Wiggins for Love.

you don't need to play with potential when you have a sure thing on your roster already.

ESPN Reports that Cavs actively pursuing Miller, Allen, Jones, Love, Melo, Bryant, '06 DWade, and '96 Jordan.

I'm a big Kevin Love fan as well. But I'm somewhat indifferent on the potential trade. I did a poor job of following college basketball this year, so my Wiggins knowledge is limited. I do know that it's rare to have that kind of offensive potential and be a lockdown defender in your first year.

As for a title... it's a helluva lot easier to come out of the East than the West. If they were a Western Conference team, I'd say no right now. I do think they can get out of the East though, so that would give them a huge boost on the odds.

Initial offer... Waiters, Bennett and future 1st. That would be a steal, imo.

I'm with ya... trust me... Love is one of my favs... I'm just thinking about the overall roster and what is best for the long haul. That would really tighten things up.

Just thinking, how much of a troll move would it be if James signs with Miami now?

Fun to have the NDL discussing basketball again since 75% of the NDL is based in Ohio and their eyes are bright with winning and giddy like Nole at a fat girl convention.

Love as Lebron's stretch 4 is pretty incredible.

the passing between those 2 would be Harlem Globetrotterish and the Cavs will need shooting. assuming they get Ray that's about the only 3 pt guy they'll have. Love would help that out alot

That's a really good point. When Love says long-term, I'm wondering what he's thinking. He turns 26 this off-season and if he signed on for 4 and an option for 5, he's in his prime all the way through.

I love the idea of moving Waiters and Bennett to get him though. That is a no-brainer. I hated that Bennett pick and I'm not a fan of Waiters at all.

Hopefully the NBA schedule gods are kind when it's released at the end of the month... I'd love to have a nice Browns-Cavs weekend in December.
