    Let's not forget Biyombo, Deng, or Mozgov here.

    Or the elder Plumlee.

    Ok, here goes.

    Melo to Cavs
    Love to Portland
    Meyers, Crabbe, Harkless, 3 firsts to NY.

    filler to make it work.

    With Nurkic, Love fits here.
    Bron wants Melo
    NY, clears Melo and starts over with three firsts, plus young players

    Bron wants Melo without giving up Love. Yes he is greedy.

    Don't think Melo has that kinda value. Austin Rivers was the best value coming back in that rumor with the Clips last week

    Cavs trading Birdman and cash to Charlotte opens up a roster spot. Hmmmm

    If we trade our pick we need to put some level of protection on it if we're not getting a Butler/George-level player. We could very easily end up with a Top 5 pick. It would be a real shame to trade that for a less-than-ideal upgrade at PF, or some other mid-level player.

    Hmm, that is a lot to give up, but I think it is reasonable from the Portland side. I would love to keep one or two of those firsts, but . . .

    Portland dumps a bunch of salary and gets a 20/11 PF, with a decent defensive rating and Stotts-friendly 3pt percent. You can't just add up the individual values of the players in consolidation trades. You have to give up more to get one really good player.

    My primary concern on this is that if Love gets injured you are screwed, now and in the future.

    Napier is not the playmaker they want, I think. Augustin, Knight, Nelson, Mack.

    I can see Cleveland doing something like Shumpert/Frye for Rondo/Mirotic

    In the trade of Chris Anderson the Cavs didn't have to send a pick out for CHA to take him, only "cash". In fact, they got a pick back (although they will never see it most likely as it is top 55 protected).
