    Cavs others = heat others

    Wade was just as bad on defense as Irving in the postseason. Irving at least still had the ability to put the ball through the hoop

    He's gotten better each year, and is just 23. JKidd eventually turned himself into a great 3pt shooter.

    [rQUOTEr]LeBron James has reached out to Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star forward Kevin Love and expressed a desire for them to play together in Cleveland, front-office sources told Yahoo Sports.

    Love is enthusiastic about the idea of teaming with James on the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources said. James' decision to sign only a two-year contract that affords him the option of again becoming a free agent at the end of next season has not tempered Love's interest in joining James on the roster.

    The Cavs and Timberwolves have had ongoing talks about a trade for Love, but a deal is not imminent, said one high-ranking source involved in the discussions. Wiggins played for Cleveland's summer-league team Thursday night in Las Vegas.

    The Cavaliers have shown a willingness to possibly include No. 1 pick Andrew Wiggins in a package for Love, but would likely need additional teams to complete a deal, sources said.

    The Cavaliers also have spoken to the Golden State Warriors about Love, but the Warriors have so far been reluctant to include guard Klay Thompson in a trade.

    Love's representatives have informed Timberwolves management he will opt out of his contract after next season and leave the franchise in free agency if he is not traded.

    Stupid Cavs for not giving up Wiggins, stupid Warriors for not giving up Klay.

    And of course stupid Rockets who could have traded Parsons for him instead of losing him for nothing....:(

    I don't think the Cavs will say no to Lebron. If he wants Love, they'll do what it takes.

    ESPN front page, after tonight's game.

    "Cleveland has changed its stance and is now willing to trade No. 1 pick Andrew Wiggins for Kevin Love, a source confirmed. " :grin:

    If it isn't @WojYahooNBA or @ESPNSteinLine, it likely isn't valid.

    Normally my line of thinking. Hence the little disclaimer!

    If the Cavs get love thatss such BS. LeBron leaves and they somehow manage to get 3 freeking first overalls. Then he comes back and they can package all of them for love? That's BS.

    Minnesota really is the forgotten team. I keep thinking they are in the East.
