Holcan Kevin Love is easily at best the 3rd best player in the league and at worst maybe 5. Don't be crazy. You trade Wiggins immediately because Love is a sure thing.

yea no. the basketball advanced metrics isn't that reliable.

anyway it is hilarious how lebron tried to fuck espn by exclusively releasing this story to SI.


I saw Stuart Scott posting on Twitter yesterday saying stuff like "Is LeBron REALLY doing this decision better than last time?" as if he was just pissed it's not on ESPN again rofl

^ Won't go as far as to say hes a top 3 player, but definitely best PF... I would trade Wiggins for Love in a heartbeat... But just the thought of seeing LBJ and Wiggins play together is just OMFG!!!

Yea, but you are a notorious Klove fanboy, so obviously your rating is much higher than his actual rating.


And Yes, I said Love is a better player than Wiggins. But it isn't just wiggins, its wiggins + cap flexibility, and if anything helps cap flexibility be useful, its having the best player in the league on your team.

as a casual fan i don't see any sexy in love's game. just play with wiggins lebron it'll be more fun.


srsly though a top 3 player in teh league would make the playoffs.

And how many of these are up for free agency? Like two?

Besides, we already know Bosh is going to Houston for Big 3 2.0 (Harden, Howard and Bosh sounds pretty good, we can see old Bosh hopefully) and Carmelo is staying in NY.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but even if Houston could clear Asik and Lin and Parsons, right this very second, they're at 17ish mil in cap space. Bosh's max is over 20mil.

This is true. If we renounce/waive/unload absolutely everyone except Beverley, we'll have 17 or 18m. Hopefully that's enough to satisfy Bosh.

I mean its true though, when was the last time you didnt predict the wolves to make the playoffs? 2011? And you always base these predictions on the back of Kevin Love, who year after year has proven he is incapable of leading a team. Albeit on the cavs he is a better fit as he won't be the leader.


The last half of this year was Kevin Love bitching about how he wants out and blaming teammates for poor performances. He is the epitome of reasons for why the Wolves had very little success.

26.1 pts and 12.5 rebounds is plenty of "sexy". Charles Barkley considers Love the best power forward in the NBA. Ultimately it will be up to what Lebron thinks though. Carmelo just missed the playoffs in the east, is he not a top 15 player now?

it would be better if he's some kind of magical post player. just aesthetics.

melo has made the playoffs in more than 90% of his playing years. last year did not exist, i have no recollection.

The hard part is unloading Asik imo. We agreed with NOP for it, but they're having difficulties clearing the room. Everyone else can be unloaded with varying amounts of bribery.

Woj reporting that Lin to the Lakers deal is going down, I expect Rockets will be sending some picks or other players with him to sweeten the deal.

Last I heard, Pelicans were looking at waving Austin Rivers to get the deal done.
