Pretty sure he has several. With incense, candles, and the remains of a sacrificed animal of some sort. Plus lube and a box of tissues.
It was reported yesterday that teams are asking for a 1st back for Love's contract. Giving up one instead seems like a bad deal.
I understand that's what other teams are asking for. But Cleveland isn't required to make a deal. If including a (protected) pick basically ensures our offer is the best one, are we best-served refusing to include a pick if we actually want the player? Now, whether or not we actually want Love is a different story...
Right, but a compromise of no pick is the most I'd trade considering the player and contract let alone giving up Skal and Little too. Yeah, I don't want Love so to overpay that much when it's pretty likely no other team is offering positive assets would be really bad in my opinion.
I gathered. I'm just compartmentalizing the two aspects. Independent of whether or not we fans actually want him, a protected pick and 3 scrubs is not a terrible price for a GM to pay for a starter.
Yes, but you don't really want Love anyways, right? So, of course, you wouldn't. It would be pretty stupid for Cleveland to give up a pick if they're trying to rebuild.
For the record, we don't really know what other teams are offering or what the market is, but you're obviously right you don't want to bid against yourself, if no one else is adding positive assets then they shouldn't either.
