    Yeah, it was just the minimum $$ we'd need to send out to match his salary.

    Harkless and Meyers jumps up a combined one million after Sunday.
    Love salary jumps up 4.7 million.

    So now or never without using Collins. Which maybe Cleveland is hoping for.

    I don’t think you need to send significant assets to get back Love. Expirings and one late first rounder should be more than enough considering his contract situation.

    I agree. Acquiring Kevin Love is the one thing that might deny the Blazers a title.

    Nobody said he knew anything. He said "I do not believe". He also said "I might be wrong" and "that's my opinion". Not all opinions are evidence based.

    The hate for Love is so dumb. You put him on our team, we are way better than we were last year.

    Listening to Lowe and Woj analyze makes me sorry for the 4 minutes of my life I won't get back.

    They might have contacts and be able to report what they hear. But actually understanding value, fit, chemistry, or how everything comes together for a specific team is not their strong suit. It's more about just saying stuff to drive viewership and attention, but it's devoid of substance.

    He's overrated. He's a very good player, but well short of great.

    I want to play on a good team, and the Blazers could get me for less.

    I think it's plenty for Love and his horrible contract. The Cavs may have a different opinion.
