A) Bennett, Wiggins, 2 1sts

The newest Cavs trade for John Lucas, Malcolm Thomas and Erik Murphy.....are all for adding into a trade to the Wolves in which the Cavs could also eat JJ or KevMart contracts in a trade......then TWoves can cut them because they are not gaunteed contracts......

That would mean 2 months before a deal can be done.

I thought Which? was the clear answer so that's the way I voted.

Which for sure!
Seriously though (and has a die hard Wolves fan) I'm don't know.
I like Wiggins upside but I'm not sure he'll ever get there. Bennett does nothing for me and that would need to be one of the better picks for me to consider it.
I don't know much about Mirotic. Smarks love him - some say he's Dirk others say he is a decent shooter who can't rebound or defend. Taj is nice but is 29 and I hear the Wolves like McBuckets but that's not a great return either.
If either takes JJ with Love that's my preference because they dislike each other. Also I want JJ out. If someone takes JJ and KMart they can post.

If the Bulls sweeten the pot and add Butler and take back Kmart and JJ we have a deal. More talent and close to the same upside. Mirotic and PEK would be showing post players what life was like in Montenegro.

I would be pissed if they added Butler. Chicago would again be left without a true 2 or 3 (yes I know they'd take back Kmart or JJ, but I definitely prefer butler to them)

I was gonna come today and stir things up...
Say, Trade A they find a home for JJ or KevMart but not both while Trade B you get Butler and only rid of one.

That article is a good idea but ranking them based off WARP is crazy - it completely negates the age/development of the youth thus unselling the Cavs offer by a ton.

as a Cavs fan I would love (ahahahaha) to see Love in a Cavs uniform but at the same time I don't want to see the Cavs turn into the last version of the Cavs.....totally suck no picks and the youth gone......I know that LeBron, Kyrie and Love could be creazy good but the bench would be slim like the Heats bench was and we would be up against the cap forever.
Plus Kyrie and his injuries worry me, he goes down and yikes.
I would rather see LeBron teach and mold these young guys then empty the tank for Love.

Maybe... you'd still have plenty of viable vet options and other young/semi young players on the roster. It's about ONE thing if you're a Cavs fan... GETTING ONE TITLE. Nothing else matters.

Hope T Wolves fans love having 89 million small forwards. Plus Bennett is gonna surprise this yr or next.

Hope T Wolves fans love having 89 million small forwards. Plus Bennett is gonna surprise this yr or next. Wolves only have Shabazz, Budinger (and maybe Corey Brewer) as SFs. Not sure any of those guys are good/true SFs (and Bazz plays more like a PF). Wiggins will be a welcomed addition with LaVine who is dunking out of the gym. They could be great running mates with Rubio. Not to downplay Love at all - the Cavs are CLEARLY getting the best player on the deal. Most "experts" will shit on Love's D but let me tell you his man-to-man D is actually pretty solid/good. He just can't help defend much but there have been definite improvements in his defensive game in the last 2 seasons. He seems to come into each new year with a different skill he picked up over the offseason (sadly once it was a broken hand) As far as Bennett goes I have little-to-no hope for him. TBH I wouldn't pick up his option and I'd keep his 8 mil for FA (but I doubt the Wolves do that).

I gotta be blunt I watched Levine live last year in a conference game and that kid is an amazing athlete but it will be a borderline miracle if he ever puts it all together IMO. He will need some SPurs level development to ever be more than a dunk contest participant. Classic example IMO of a guy going way earlier than he should have due to his upside.
I think London nailed love, not bad man to man but he isn't dissuading any one from getting into the lane, the Cavs will need to add a rim protector somehow

Isn't that a little bit of what Varejao does for them or even Thompson?
Could be right about Levine - I've only been following his summer league (and his crazy dunk show he put on the other night). I think he has A LOT to learn but he has the physical tools but as we know in the NBA is as much about the IQ as it is about the vertical/quickness/etc.

Yeah I watched him go scoreless against a terribly coached and bad defensive Washington State Team. You can chalk some of that up to being young, but that was at the end of the year which scares me.
I don't think either Varejao (shell of his former self even when healthy) or Thompson will scare anybody at this point. But you cannot have it all right away, I would guess they take a run at a rehab project like Oden to see if they can shore that up, it isn't like Tyson Chandlers grow on trees
