    For a three way trade for Bosh and Wiggins. I would do that deal in a heart beat and I'm a huge Aldridge homer. I know for a fact that Aldridge would re-sign in Cleveland as well, since LBJ, Irving and Aldridge would be a better version of the Miami Heat.

    How would you get both Bosh and Wiggins? Trading LA to Cleve for cap space and then signing Bosh?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I would too. I would also trade Batum for LeBron James, and I am a huge Batum homer.

    I wouldn't do Aldridge and Matthews. Good guys, no doubt, and Blazers, but I still don't do men.

    I do. Not by much, but I think Bosh is slightly better than Aldridge across the board.

    Blue9 doesn't have a high opinion of LA and thinks 18 or 19 PF's are better or as good as LA. Sinobas/Blue9 don't exactly keep it a secret they would rather trade LA then keep him.

    Probably not 18 or 19. But only homers would say LMA is better than Bosh. Bosh really bought into being a 3rd wheel role player, but when he was "the man" the skills and abilities that he showed were better than LMA in nearly every aspect. Bosh is LMA+. The difference isn't HUGE, but it's certainly noticeable.

    Maybe 5 years ago. Even Bosh admitted he's not the CB4 anymore he was in Toronto.
