    Now on this point i totally agree. I believe CJ could bring more, and or a better fit in return.

    How could anyone seriously sit down and think that's a fair trade.

    I'm not even sure that would be a fair trade in Love's prime.

    To be fair to all involved, they're all being dumb here because Love doesn't have a no trade clause so his preferred destination means squat.

    Cleveland should get the best offer and take it.

    The thing I keep coming back to is that when a rumored deal or preferred landing spot become public it rarely happens. It is usually just agents trying to boost interest and value. Regardless of fit or contract I don’t see him coming here. If someone were to happen with love it would be surprising at this point.

    Sometimes the rumors are right: Melo to NY, Melo to Portland, AD to Lakers.

    what rumor? I haven't seen a single rumor. All I've seen so far is simple conjecture, and a lot of it is simple-minded

    Olshey is pretty predictable. Love is definitely a guy he likes. Idk about the contract, but when has that ever stopped him

    What I guess I mean is sometimes the obvious deal happens. We have expiring contracts, Love wants to be in Portland. Makes sense.

    This is code for either "I found out I'm not getting traded" or "I'm sending a message to my new teammates that I will not be such a dick"

    Definitely the second one. "Please, please don't hold this against me, and get me out of this godforsaken hole"

    Like it or not the Blazers are getting desperate. They don't have time to sit back and keep playing the waiting game. Dame's going to be 30 and the Blazers haven't had much luck in the free agent department.

    I don't see how this relates to wizenheimer's post that there are no credible rumors about Love getting traded to the Blazers. You keep bringing it up. Guys like Charles Barkley mention it from time to time just because they think the Blazers need to make a move and the salary numbers for Whiteside and Love match. The only thing missing is someone like Woj saying that there's actually trade talk going on about this. Well, that and a report that the Cavs have dirt on Olshey or that his brain has somehow become infected with a nasty virus that would make him so mentally incapacitated as to actually contemplate such a stupid move.
