Turns out the Wiggins jerseys were just sold out.

Or at least that's the story they're trying to tell.

The plot thickens.

guaranteed they wouldve stocked more by now if he was actually staying in CLE

this love trade could work if their coach can use love well in some sort of euro system and hide him on defense, but still not really liking this direction of the game. bigs running around trying to find a spot to shoot 3's while actually being below average around the rim is pretty meh.

I'm sure people have expounded upon this in this thread but I'm curious to hear how people think Love would fit? He's a better offensive Bosh but a big minus on defense. I'm seeing the Heat 2.0, lacking a critical rim protector.

Other question that I heard asked on the Lowe Post and thought relevant: is it more important to have the window open for as long as possible or as wide as possible?

As 'wide as possible, Lebron's got like 3 more years left of being king of the mountain. That's why I don't understand why some people were poo pooing the trade. Wiggins might turn out to be a nice player, but he's not going to be anywhere near Love's production for the next 3 years.

Loves D isn't that bad. He was actually a plus on a t wolves team that was in the top half defensively.

He's a good man defender. But he has issues with rotations, is not a good shot blocker/rim protector and doesn't contest shots very well on occasion so as not to sacrifice rebounding positioning.

But he can body guys like Blake effectively in the post and is of the best rebounders in the league. He needs a good defensive 5 next to him to cover for his weaknesses (which pek isn't) but it's not like he's David Lee level liability.

Never really the argument. Its whether Wiggins for those years at 5 Mil per vs. Love at 15-20 per will allow you to construct a better overall team.

With what free agents or trade assets, pray tell?

Does anyone really think that this team as currently constructed has a chance of coming out of the East? Isn't the question are you trying to win a championship in the next 3 years?

I think they could totally come out of the East cause well, it's the East. The real question is if they can beat anyone in the finals.

The East is currently between Chicago and Cleveland, IF and I say a big IF Rose can stay healthy. Chicago added just as many necessary parts as CLE did. But I still feel both would struggle in the Finals.

It depends on the matchup. and with the east being what it is I think Chicago has a pretty good chance of making the conference finals even if Rose got injured again. Obviously less of a chance but I just don't think the talent in the East is really all that deep.

Ariza went to Rockets. Parsons went to Dallas. Lin went to Lakers. Hawes went to Clippers. Pau went to Bulls. Boozer went to Lakers. Lance went to Charlotte. George went to Snap City.

Man I think we forget how sick the 08 USA Team was. Wade, Lebron and Kobe were just unstoppable.

It's so funny to watch that because every other team looks like they're playing in slow motion. The speed of the game doesn't even look comparable there.

Yea, and the rim seems so damn short. Maybe it's the camera angle? Those guys look like their playing on a little league hoop.

I was doing something similar by watching the 2000 team the other day and holy crap I forgot how athletic Ray Allen was.
