They are carried by Lowry and Valanciunas. DD is their better version of Reke. If you can trade a guy like him and expirings for Love and a SG that can be "pretty good" when healthy, why not? Toronto is exactly the kind of team that can re-sign Love. Cleveland gets a poor man's love and a guy that should be one of the best big man defenders in the NBA (exactly what they need). It gives us a chance to reset with a really good trio and lots of cap space. I'll say this: it's a trade I would make, but it's not one that I think we come out way on top of. That's kind of the sign of a good trade (not if it's my opinion, but the GM's).

I tend to agree though, it's very close but it makes Toronto too thin. Swap Gordon for Reke and maybe Toronto has more interest, but then it seems like we would lose interest because you trade away the asset you need to get a center and depth.

I love me some Valanciunas, but in no way does he carry them. Amir Johnson picks up a lot of slack defensively there as well as he is very compentent four.
DeRozan is a very nice two way player, something that's hard to come by in this league. He's a part of their plan.
Ross might be the expendable one,as his performance is up and down.
Their depth and continuity is what makes Toronto special. Lowry is very good with a nice balance around him. Take that away and he might be doing too much.
Love is going to a colder city where he is double taxed bro.
The Raps have one of the best GMs in the league. In this trade they lose a ton of assets for a guy who's never won anything that would be a rental.
So like I said, they'd hang up laughing.
