    Kevin Love is a true professional and wants to retire a Cavalier.

    Why would Kevin Love do this? I guess he already has a championship and just wants to make money.

    JUN 25 2015 Declined $16.7 million option with Cleveland (CLE) for the 2015-2016 season; becomes an Unrestricted Free Agent
    JUL 1 2015 Signed a 5 year $113.2 million extension with Cleveland (CLE)
    JUL 24 2018 Agreed to a 4 year $120 million contract extension with Cleveland (CLE)

    iT'S a coin flip, because the teams that are behind them were very close to the Cavs with LeBron on their team. Losing LeBron will account anywhere from -5 to -20 wins.

    This has Blake Griffin "traded by midseason" written all over it.

    Love had a player opt-out for 2019 so he was gonna hit free agency and Cavs would have likely lost him for nothing. Now, they get to keep him for a season, see how Sexton develops, and then trade Love for more picks and younger pieces.

    Book it.

    Yeah, they suck, they'll probably win 25 games because of the East, Osman might be the second best player on that roster lol

    Why not? He got his ring already. Now he can cash in and make a buttload of money with zero pressure to deliver anything to that franchise.

    PigMiller (along with elgnomo) has been on vacation...don't know if he's back yet.

    And, J.R. - If you have one iota of respect for me (or my Mother for that matter)......That guy went way too far.

    On a more pleasant note, is DM not filling up the team bus still....and, in spectacular fashion....

    Clutch shut that thread down, at least temporarily because of the atrocious behavior...and negative vibes.

    But, I'm all for the reopening of it, now...as the buffet is opening up....We don't expect many diners yet, but are open for business just the same.

    Peace, my friend... : )
