    That's the best option right now. Especially if CLE gets a PF in return for Kyrie (such as Jabari Parker). If they did, they'd likely look for a SF and play Lebron as a big SG. That would be the scenario where they'd trade Love for Melo.

    Won't happen, but could you imagine how much fun that team would be to watch? The passing would be insane.

    2 mil for rose? I know he's struggled with injuries and isn't the same player he was, but he's still good enough to get paid more than that shit.

    Don't feel sorry for millionaires who play a game for a living.

    well I dont feel sorry for him in that way, he wont be homeless for sure, but as a player who won the MVP award, 3x All-Star, D-Rose as an amazing player he was prior to injuries, thats what I feel sorry about

    when you see his accomplishments and what player he could become if healthy, its just sad...

    I think they would sign short term deals with OKC. I love the fact that OKC is taking such a risk.

    Your computer is forgetting that Paul George said he was going to LA anyway.

    Your computer needs to update. Restart.

    We'll just see won't we. Ball, George, LeBron, Randal , Lopez would be a solid lineup for the Lakers I guess.

    If this happens, it'll be nice beating LBJ 4 times a year.
    Blazers > Lakers.

    Yea I try and see a situation in which a roster with Rose instead of Kyrie at the point gives you a better chance at beating GSW and it's with added length and size at the other positions. Rose,LeBron,Melo, a player like Parker, and TT could be seen as such.

    Just adding Rose + Jeff Green and resigning players like Korver is not enough. There has to be more roster moves made in Cleveland. Love is candidate numero uno.

    Bullshit. We were both agreeing in opposite directions. Or maybe we were disagreeing about the same thing.

    OKC doesn't have the pieces to make this trade.
