The more I think about it, the Cavs roster may be the better option for the long-term. Wade is declining and Miami doesn't have much money to bring in help. The Cavs still have Irving, Wiggins, Waiters and picks. They would need a big though.

Bloggers are REALLY pushing for this Wiggins-Love swap. I know it makes sense from a basketball standpoint, but Tristan Thompson is also represented by LBJ's agent (Rich Paul) and would feel slighted. Dude is looking for a payday, and this is the path of least resistance. Screwing him over would be against the "family" mantra they tout so boldly.
cavs talent is a HUGE question right now. Irving is a borderline all star at best, Wiggins, you don't know how NBA ready he is. Waiters..really? Cleveland needs to add another true max player and some good role players to guarantee a spot in the NBA finals IMO.
@therealteizzo 7-9-14 "To clarify: #Cavs have an offer on the table to Minnesota for Kevin Love. The ball is in Minnesota's court." "#Cavs reportedly have a deal in place for Kevin Love. Stay tuned for details."
Dude.... Broussard has NO inside information. He was convinced James was going to Chicago 4 years ago and just makes crap up. Woj on the other hand does not report something unless it is legitimate.
I agree, but the Heat's talent is a huge question right now as well. Mainly Wade and every player outside of LeBron and Bosh.
He's been breaking a lot of stuff this free agency, "LEBRON opting out" "LEBRON to cab rumors from sources" & will be first to break LEBRON to cavs... Not taking anything from WOJ. But when it comes to LEBRON or CAVS Broussard has him
To be fair, after the Decision, Broussard allegedly got close to Lebron and his agent. Skip Bayless called him out about in on air saying he sold his journalistic soul to get close to Lebron. (Those were exact words) Broussard is in fact close with Lebron's agent now. With that said, the sold his journalistic soul part means he'll say whatever the agent wants him to say.
