It'll probably happen. The Lakers are rumored to be interested.

Wiggins' potential could be north of what Irving produces now and could be even on par with LeBron by the time his next contract comes
I don't want to say it is impossible, but it is basically impossible that Wiggins is as good as LBJ. I don't know how to say this without insulting Wiggins, who could be amazing, but LBJs don't grow on trees

He's good, very good, issue is, he costs max money now. If you're adding Love and LeBron to the mix, they could end up becoming Miami 2.0 in salary issues. Cleveland also isn't Miami in attraction so you may have a harder time attracting vets/younger stars to sign for cheap just to win.
That's the trade off. Acquiring Love means it better work and work soon because you can't really improve the team afterwards. Just my opinion, but LBJ/Kyrie/Love now isn't as good as LBJ/Wade/Bosh was in 2011, in an overall stronger Eastern conference, nor is the supporting cast.

I agree.
I think the smart move for them to have flexibility and still be annual contenders would be to stick with your young guys and let LBJ help them grow. In a year or two they will be elite.

That trio gives them the best chance to win a championship in the next 3 years. I think parting with Wiggins is a no brainer.

What do most of the posters here think Wiggins' potential is?

His potential is endless. If he's a "bust" he's still the best or second best defender on the squad who's going to score 10-15 points a night IMO.

Pippen. I don't see him as an alpha (yet) but he'd be learning from the best. Honestly I don't think I would give him up either. As good as Love is, I'd really try to do anything not to trade him.
I get that Love is a proven stud but a Lebron / Wiggins combo seems as nasty as they get.

Does Bron let the Cavs trade Andy to make the Salary work?

Nice knowing ya in Cleveland Andrew Wiggins. Lebron will get what he wants.

If the cavs offer anything more than just wiggins and MAYBE a pick for Love, they are stupid. Build for the long term, not one year.
Posted on 7/17/14 at 6:47 pm to The_Hornet
The probably is, the Cavs need to get the salary to work. Andy + Bennett almost gets it done. I doubt Bron signs off on that though..
Posted on 7/17/14 at 6:47 pm to boXerrumble
I would just like to see Love in a more welcoming market. Him being shoved away in Minnesota to never be seen again is criminal
Posted on 7/17/14 at 6:52 pm to The_Hornet
They wouldn't be building for one year. Kyrie is 22, Love is 25, LeBron is 29. Let's not act like this team will be full of old geezers where their window to win a championship is short. Wiggins is no guarantee superstar... Kevin Love is.
If they trade Love to the Cavs, it will be more than just Wiggins and a pick.
