Cavs Now Offering Wiggins In Deal For Love


Recommended Posts

@JeffZillgitt: Indeed, Cavaliers have put Andrew Wiggins on table in their effort to acquire Kevin Love from Timberwolves who been firm in trade demands.

The latest offer could include Wiggins, power forward Anthony Bennett and a first-round pick. Center Brendan Haywood might be included in the deal to make it work contractually. News-Herald

The Cavs also would be able to hang onto starting shooting guard Dion Waiters in the latest proposal. News-Herald

However, a source said James wants the 6-10, 250-pound Love on the roster. And, what James wants, he normally gets. News-Herald

For those wondering who Zillgitt is, he works for USATODAY Sports.

Not only from an on-court perspective, but Wiggins will still be on his rookie salary for a few more years, which would allow Cleveland to put even more pieces in place.  Love will demand a lot of money after this year when he renews his contract.  I think you have a much better chance for long-term success by keeping Wiggins and those other young pieces.  This kinda smells like desperation.

Big mistake.. Having Irving, Wiggins,James etc.. Is better than Irving, James, and KLove

Thompson and Verajo are good starters so why get rid of young talent for James to leave in two years (because there's no support/bench around him)

Cavs are the ones with leverage. TWolves are going to lose him after this year if they don't trade him.

I wouldn't put him on the table. Give up other players on the team and future picks.

it's possible the Warriors offered something that would only be bested with Cavs offering Wiggins.

Love is a top 10 player in the league now and he is only 25 I think. The guy is a machine down low and I'd a far better complement for James. Wiggins could be great or he could be Gerald Green. If the Cavs want to win now then they trade for Love. Plus he will sign an extension with them.

    • Lanorris Sellers is my choice but I'm biased of course. He should honestly stay another year and develop as a passer though. 
    • DCs have got a couple of years of Canales' play-calling now to see what he's doing the same between TB & CAR. Most fans without an anti-player agenda understood coming in that this was going to be a season about developing the young guys (something most fans have been clamoring for since the soft reboots started taking place), but the coaches are in the same boat imo. Not only does Evero need to show that last season was an aberration, Canales needs to show that he has an offensive mind that can compete with some of these great defensive coordinators around the league. I think one of the adjustments for that particular play is going to be having Tremayne (or whoever the WR ends up being) create a contact with the SS before his break to the corner if the CB has outside leverage. I recall seeing the same (or at least a very similar) play drawn up during preseason where XL was breaking open to the corner after getting to the CBs outside shoulder but the ball went elsewhere due to pressure. Shoot... I think this might be the season that I finally challenge myself to try and figure out which plays/concepts we see most often and when. The last decade of reviewing all-22s after frustrating L's has helped me learn so much more about the game. 😄
    • I think he should keep it tbh and try to improve at it all. We hired him to be the f'ing playcaller and head coach, so deal with the bumps of someone learning on the job with a limited QB. It's fine.
