I could be wrong on this but it looks like Cleveland could trade Thompson, Waiters, and Gee along with some picks and land Kevin Love. I suppose if they wanted they could trade Varejao and Waiters, but I think they want to keep Varejao.

The Wolves I suppose would consider the trade because it lands them a possible center piece for the future in Waiters and 2 expiring contracts in Thompson and Gee along with future draft picks to rebuild. That is likely one of the better deals they would get if they truly believe Love is not re-signing with them. It also insures them that Love does not end up in the Western Conference.

Yah, I thought that too, but the KLove talks are making it interesting. If Bosh would just go then I really think Bron would resign with Melo.

Melo & Lebron can't happen unless they are willing to share about $27 mil between them.

Just spoke to Dwyane Wade, who was all smiles, he didn't say much except "Life is good."

Did you mean Thompson, Wiggins, and Gee?

If LeBron is there, absolutely.

How about this for a scenario:

- Lebron tells Gilbert or leaks information to Gilbert that he will sign in Cleveland if they deal for Love.
- Cleveland deals Wiggins and some other young assets for Love
- Lebron resigns in Miami and Love goes somewhere else in free agency next year.

LeBron would not do that to Cleveland fans, but that would be the type of thing that Dan Gilbert deserves after the way he treated LeBron.

Just curious, but why would Love go to Cleveland if Lebron goes there? Hell he could go to GS, Lakers, Houston or almost any team he wants to resign with. IMO, Love wants no part of the Cavs, no matter who is on that roster.
