I still cant believe Minn gave away Love for almost nothing. Still shocked.

We still dont really know what they got for him, since we dont know what Wiggins is.

What they got for him was a chance at having a superstar.

Considering he was gone no matter what, and he really only let them deal with the Cavs... I think Min came out well.

As of right now its nothing. I agree it can change. Im talking about the NOW.

Uhh Varajeo. He is the center, Love will play PF and stretch the floor.

Of course they have a shot. With the Bulls it always comes down to offense andthey don't have enough. Gasol crush Love really, Love is the best big man scorer in the league and Gasol is aging. You think Gasol can guard Love 20+ feet out? No. Maybe inside Gasol can get his, but this isn't the same Pau. He is 34, Love is 25.

Gibson can cover Love.

Varajeo is like the Birdman. Same type of player. He is a little better in scoring then the birdman. Noah eats him up all day long.

This is a risky trade for the Cavs. Love can opt out of his contract after the season and become a free agent.

He has already said he is going to re up for 5 years 120 mill.

Lebron said he wasn't leaving Cleveland until won them a title too. I think Love will ultimately re-sign with Cleveland, but these situations can change quickly.

What if Lebron suffers his first serious injury? What if Love or Kyrie have issues with not being the #1 guy? What if the lack of defense costs them in the playoffs and they don't at least make the finals?

Heck, what if he only wants to sign a short term deal like Lebron did?

A lot can happen between now and next summer. If I'm a Cavs fan, I'm nervous about this until the ink dries on a new deal.

Ohh no doubt Noah is better. But Varajeo has a jumpshot and pretty good one and defensively he has the same intensity as Noah. Pretty fair matchup really. When Varajeo was healthy he was averaging 14 and 14, no slouch.

Gibson starts? No. He can cover him sometimes.

I agree he doesn't start but he will get around 28min per game. Remember Gasol is the back up center. So Gasol will get min at Center.

Love can't guard Gasol in the paint and Gasol can't gaurd Love. So expect Varejao to guard Gasol and Noah guard Noah.
