Wiggins and Lebron could have been a defensive anchor and compensated for no elite rim protector by causing turn overs, defensive versatility and helpside D but now they would have neither

I'd do this trade that way we still keep waiters and Thompson... I'd prefer to still keep Wiggins but if Bron wants Love.let's.go...or this could just be rumors to up the warriors offer.

Ever since LeBron James returned to Cleveland, talks have intensified for All-Star power forward Kevin Love.
Rumors have surfaced that the Cavaliers wouldn’t include rookie swingman Andrew Wiggins in any possible deal for the Minnesota Timberwolves’ star.
A league source said on July 17 that the Cavs are now willing to trade the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 draft.
Wiggins, a 6-foot-8, 194-pounder, has played well at the Las Vegas Summer League, where he’s become a crowd favorite. The former Kansas star has averaged 13.7 points and 3.0 rebounds in the Cavs’ first three games. However, he’s shooting just 37.8 percent from the field.
Up until this point, it was assumed the Cavs wanted to hang onto Wiggins, largely because of comments made by Coach David Blatt.
However, a source said James wants the 6-10, 250-pound Love on the roster.
And, what James wants, he normally gets.
The thinking is that Wiggins is going to be a very good player, a possible All-Star player, in time. But he’s raw. He’s a long way away from reaching that potential.
Love is an All-Star caliber player now. The union of James, Kyrie Irving and Love could be a championship in the making.
The Cavs are under the gun to win now. James is playing on a two-year contract that includes an out clause after the 2014-15 season if he decides to use it.
The addition of Love could push the Cavs to the top of the Eastern Conference. Without Love, they are still a playoff team, but might fall behind Chicago and Indiana in the East.
The latest offer could include Wiggins, power forward Anthony Bennett and a first-round pick. Center Brendan Haywood might be included in the deal to make it work contractually.
That would be a lot of potential talent heading Minnesota’s way. Bennett was the top overall pick in the 2013 draft and appears to be poised to take a major step in his career. He’s now in top shape and the “stretch 4” appears to have high scoring ability.
The Cavs also would be able to hang onto starting shooting guard Dion Waiters in the latest proposal.
The Golden State Warriors are also attempting to trade for Love, who averaged 26 points and 12 rebounds last year. Up until this point, they wouldn’t including shooting guard Klay Thompson in any possible deal.
Love will make $15.7 million this season. He can become an unrestricted free agent after the 2014-15 season. A deal might be contingent on him agreeing to sign an extension with the Cavs.

Maxing out Bron/Kyrie/Love would put them in a situation just like Miami. Wade/Bosh at their best is better than Kyrie/Love.

No they're not:what:


Wade is on his last knees and Bosh isnt as good as Kevin Love period.

Pray to god Glen Taylor really doesn't think any amount of success will convince Love to stay. If Wiggins is on the table and the Wolves aren't accepting immediately, I'm done with the franchise.

But I believe once Wiggins is actually in a deal the Wolves will take it so I won't believe any rumors. If Love stays, Wiggins was never offered.........I hope :sadcam:

Key words is "were" though.


Maybe in 2011 and 2012...that would be true. But 2013 and 2014 Wade/Bosh isnt seeing Kyrie/Love right now imo.
