Adding Mozgov's interior defense was a huge part of Cleveland's big run last year. Trading him and Love for Melo would be hilarious.

Do not want.

Kevin Love's Abby Wambach hair is perfect for a title run this year.

Wiggins is gonna be a stud for a long time, and they traded him for a white guy who LeBron hates that they just use to stretch the floor.

And their coach is fricking Tyronn Lue. The Cavs are a joke. Gonna lol if they never win a title with LeBron.

I feel like the Celtics are going to win a title in the next 3-4 years. Maybe as soon as the Warriors clear out.


Love and Ben Simmons is gonna be a nasty tandem

It's crazy how things are starting to look for them. They have to do something.

Bradley is the last remaining Celtic from the Little Three and Rondo era I'm pretty sure :/

They also could've totally waited a couple months and had Wiggins and Love via free agency

GM LeBron didn't want to play with Wiggins.

Pick one: GM Lebron or Dell Demps

ETA you don't get player Lebron in either senario

I too said it was a bad move. Still can't believe they had such little foresight.

The only way it made any sense was if they just thought Wiggins would take too long and/or had too low of a ceiling with regards to his development.

That's what I was shouting in all of the early threads. I just could not understand WTF the Cavs were thinking.

I just hope the Cavs trade Love so they look stupid for trading for him in the first place (which I called).

i'll say this. in retrospect, they won the shite out of that deal. wiggins hasn't been that good so far

They couldn't have picked up Love via FA. They were over the cap. Only way to get him was via trade. Could they have waited and tried to do a sign and trade deal with him a year later? Maybe. Wolves were adamant on getting wiggins for him though.

As much as I don't like Kevin Love, let's be honest the trade was only made because Lebron wanted Kevin Love.

BTW: this is the annual NY beat writers "mega" trade involving the Cavs. Happens every year around the all star break.

I hated the trade , wiggins had been a for gone lock to be number one pick for 3 years. The cavs gm traded him for an un athletic white stat stuffer on a bad team, woat trades
