    Now, that is an interesting trade for both sides.

    In a completely scientific test, I traded CJ for him in NBA 2k, and won 50 games starting Crabbe in CJ's place.

    Can't do it- Gordon is out for 4-6 weeks. Beyond that, both him and Anderson are UFAs at the end of the season. They would essentially be trading Wiggins for 2 guys who don't have contract extensions. No way that deal goes down, even if EG was healthy.

    There is something awesome about trading for a young undiscovered talent and watching him blossom....

    If they're open for business I'd target Dellavedova.

    This song (reinforced by ignoring him) singlehandedly stopped my son's whining.

    Kevin Love is exactly the kind of player Lamarcus Aldridge is, better for his own numbers than the team's success.
    I could find a place for him, he is better han Kaman, but I would be even happier if Cliff Alexander who actualy gives us an inside presence on offense that we need, would get some playing time if not with the team, then in the NBDL. I would trade for Love, I would trade them the cap-room and a 2nd rounder, but not if it keeps Cliff Alexander in street clothes

    So Cliff Alexander is better than Kevin Love?

    He is better for our team.
    If we bring Love we don't need him and don't have the minutes or touches he'd want and he wants more than he deserves, that's why Cleveland wants to trade him.
    If we give Cliff Alexander a chance he can give us something we're not really getting from any of our bigs, scoring in the paint.

    The only way I'm in favor of a Kevin Love trade is if they keep their hands off of Dame, CJ, and Crabbe. Which IDK will happen.

    Well obviously Terry Stotts doesn't see it that way or Alexander would be getting playing time.

    I hear what you are saying, but think the bigger issue is that it doesn't really solve the Cavs' needs for defensive reinforcements. I wasn't thinking about that either when I commented, but whatever. Love and Anthony Davis would be an extremely fun frontline to watch though. The Ghost of Wiggins past is not a factor, that is silly.

    Don't Love and AD play the same position? They need a SF.

    Hahaha dude what are you talking about. Inside scoring is one of his biggest weaknesses.

    Doesn't look like the low post scorer we need.

    You overrate our scrubs so much

    They need a stretch 4 that can defend Draymond Green and a 3 and D SG.

    Aminu and Crabbe..
