    If the Cavs would be willing to trade Love & Mozgov for Howard & Anderson, I'd be willing to send the Pels T. Jones, McDaniels, and Harrell.

    To sweeten the deal for the Cavs, I'd swap Lawson for Varejao - saves them a ton of money, gives us a backup center for a few years.

    It would have to be:

    Cavs in: Ariza, Howard, Anderson

    Rockets in: Love, Mozgov

    Pelicans in: Lawson, trade exception on Anderson

    Would save absolutely tons of money for NO and would put them square in the running for Durant.

    You can't just steal Kevin Love.

    If you have a chance at KL, and it doesn't cost Harden, do whatever it takes.

    Kevin Love will make Harden look like an All NBA defender if he comes here....

    Yep it would have to be Brewer or Ariza instead of Lawson to NO.

    Ariza instead of Lawson might be enough to make NO happy.

    The Cavs are probably the perfect team for Ryan Andersen.
    I won't speculate on what that means with Love, just pointing that out.

    Have to say...I think Durant and Davis would be the most ridiculous combination of all time.

    Makes the prospect of Love and Harden look like small potatoes.

    Just because they want to trade for Rhyno doesn't mean they want to trade Love. :rolleyes:

    They probably want to trade Varejao+ Shumpert for Rhyno.

    If Cleveland could haul in both Howard and Anderson they could be anybody.

    Horrible deal for Rockets.

    Ariza will not get dealt unless we are getting Jrue Holiday/Love.

    Ya never know Malakas. They may value Howard more than you think, their in a win now mode with Lebron.

    Not sure why Cle just doesn't trade Love straight up for Howard. It makes so much sense for both teams. Labron / Howard / Irving could take down GS. And Houston gets an excellent 2nd option that's already signed long term. Howard would get so many calls in Cle it's not even funny.
