Irving, Lebron, and Love are a better trio than Wade, Lebron and Bosh.
First of all you don't even know that. That trio might be better than Wade/LBJ/Bosh were in their final 3 games together, but the Heat trio was incredible for 3 years and 2 games into a 4th finals. Do you even remember the first two years of LBJ and Wade? They were the scariest thing we've ever seen on the break.
Irving hasn't been any more healthy than Wade, and Love for all of his glory has never been in the playoffs.

I'm fairly certain it does. He will still have a cap hold of 15mil on the books for them though. So if they got rid of everyone else on the roster they'd still have ~15m cap hold for Love, ~15m salary for Kyrie, 21.6m salary for LeBron. That's ~52m, plus minimum cap holds for the rest of the roster is about 4.5m. They may have ~10mil to sign one complimentary player.

So are the Cavs that nervous they couldn't sign Love next season?
Thats my issue. I dont care what Love says, Im not giving up Wiggins, Bennett and picks knowing that in the end, I could end up only have Kevin Love for 1 year. No gonna do it. Especially with the reports of GS taking Klay's name out of talks fro Love. The Wiggins rumors sound even stupider to me knowing that. The Cavs increase their offer as GS decreases theirs??
quote:
They gain $9 mil from Varejao's contract ending, I guess LeBron could rework his deal if he really wanted Love, and you could trade one of the younger guys (Bennett, Thompson, Waiters) and shouldn't that be enough?
Andy getting 10 million this year is absurd. Tristan is due 7 million next year. Would take Andy back if he comes back for about 5-7 million. Not penny more.

Being traded usually cancels out the whole bird right thing I thought? You have to be with the team for a few years
I could be wrong though
Just looked it up. Pretty sure I'm wrong

Kyrie is eligible for the Rose rule so it might be less than 10m if he starts the all star game this year.

They could cut him and clear up 7m right now. They won't do that though. He'll come back next year for a discount.

He already signed his max extension. Which comes into effect next season. 5 years 90m, 7.5% raises per season, so his salary starts around 15m.

His deal is worth 25% of the cap, those numbers are not hard numbers. More of an estimate.

Irving's deal includes the "Derrick Rose" provision, which allows Irving to gather 30 percent of the Cavaliers' salary-cap space instead of 25 percent should he reach one of these three designated plateaus:
• voted to the NBA's first, second or third team two times in his deal.
• voted to the All-Star team twice.
• voted the NBA's MVP once.

Ah, I didn't realize your deal can change after you've already signed it.

Under the new CBA, the only way you lose bird rights is by being waived (including amnesty) or leaving via free agency. Bird rights transfer in trades. That' s just according to wiki. LINK

Yup it's why the Pels have Asiks rights as an example

People forget how great Wade was in 2010-11. Neither Kyrie nor Love are at that level right now.

LMAO. Come on now. They were the fanciest thing we've seen on a break. Jordan and Pippen were incredible in an era where it wasn't 2 freebies and ball back if you fouled the players running ahead.

So Charter doesn't carry NBATV. This is my first summer without it in years. Is there any way I can subscribe and watch online? Google's not helping. I'm willing to pay a subscription fee. I'm not willing to slog through malware-filled shite-quality pirating sites.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
