I think it's becoming obvious that Minnesota is just trying to drive up Love's price to get more from Cleveland. Griffin is calling their bluff.
What more can they give that Minnesota wants? Are they really holding out for another low 1st rounder?
Wiggins and a couple of stiffs to make the salary numbers even out. That's it.

Wasnt too happy about going to Minnesota, and considering hes from the West Coast I cant really blame him.
But hes changed his tune since then. And sounded really exciting about playing with Dieng, Rubio, and Pek. And if they get Wiggins.... Imagine that fast break. Rubio with the ball and Lavine and Wiggins running on the wings... 2 freaks. LaVine had a 46in vert at the combine. And then everyone knows how big a freak Wiggins is. Thats a scary fast break.
From everything Ive seen so far, the kid has a very very bright future in the NBA.

Rubio
how does he shoot less than 40% FG? is he getting into the lane/ around the rim but not converting there?
Posted on 7/23/14 at 5:37 pm to ATLTiger
He only shoots 8 times per game. Not that much.
But he does struggle finishing in the paint. He is not strong down low with the ball and the slightest contact messes him up a lot. And he tries to avoid contact and adjust his shot in the air way too much, which turns his shot into a circus shot. Should just go right at the basket and take the contact.
But hes not a scorer. Thats for damn sure. But if he can get up to 12ppg, with an improved fg % and keep dishing out 8+ assists, I think he will be fine. Hes a weird PG though. Averages like 10ppg, 8 assists, 4rebs, and 2+ steals per game. Versatile and brings a good bit to the table, and is very creative. Just needs to improve on his shot selection.

He's basically a homeless persons' Rondo.

Well Marion ain't comin back now and I'm fine with that
Pelicans fans, what can you tell me about him? Keep in mind, he will be our bench version of Shawn Marion.
PG: Felton/Harris/Jameer
SG: Monta/Jefferson/Ledo
SF: Parsons/Jefferson/Crowder/Aminu/Griffin
PF: Dirk/Wright/Aminu
C: Chandler/Wright/Smith/Sarge

Time to get back on the phone Chris Wallace.

Hornets fans?
Anyway, he's a long SF that can't shoot to save his life. He's a great rebounder for a SF and a decent defender. He's a good back up SF, but didn't work well as a starter for us because he has no range.

God damn it. Now I really hate Charlotte.
Yeah, Cuban loves him for his rebounding and that's what we need on that second squad with Skinny Wright and the uncertainty of Greg Smith

It's funny, that Cleveland is turning into the Miami Heats roster minus the weak links.

The Heat minus Wade and Bosh, add Kyrie and Love

Allen was still a weak link on defense.
At least the road to 3000 continues on for him.

Looks like a three way deal may be on table. Love to Cavs. Wiggins and Thad Young to Wolves. Not sure what Philly gets.
