    I don't see a way we can facilitate this deal, the best we can for Chicago is Crabbe/Harkless & draft picks and idk if we would give more than 20/26 plus one of those players for Love.

    I could however see the Thunder looking at Love.

    OKC: Love, Valentine
    CLE: Butler
    CHI: Kanter, Sabonis, Roberson, some sort of draft compensation

    In all honesty, trading Aminu, Davis, Meyers, and give them back 26 for Love just straight up would benefit both teams imo. The Cavs need size and defense (Aminu+Davis) and LeBron could probably make Meyers look somewhat decent.

    Hmmm, Butler to the Cavs?

    I thought Butler would be traded to the Celtics, for the #3 pick the Bulls wanted for him when they were talking to the 76ers.

    There's just no way the Cavs can get Butler without giving up Kyrie

    Seems tougher to pull off a blockbuster when your existing GM is about to get let go.

    Some reports have Chauncey Billups as the lead candidate.

    Shouldn't we fix our culture before we fix our team?

    What the fuck is this timing? LMAO.

    So they've been linked to discussions for Paul George.
    Then, a report comes out in the morning that they're after Jimmy Butler.
    And then a report comes out in the afternoon that they've let go of their GM. What???

    I want to laugh at most of his stuff, but then I think about his hot wife. How in the world did the Clown marry such a beautiful woman?

    This off season is now officially the wackiest ever.

    New rumor out Mrs. LeBron James wants to live in LA full time.
    Now there is speculation the King is going to be a Faker or Clipper.
    Maybe this is the reason the Cavs GM is being fired? He can’t keep the Queen happy, which makes for a grumpy King.
