Remember when the Cavaliers gave up Andrew Wiggins for Kevin Love?

[bagelred]

:roll: :roll: :roll:

Said it from Day One, will go down as one of the worst mistakes ever. :oldlol:

So recklessly stupid.

[TheMan]

It's the Cavs were talking about...

In other news, water is still wet.

:lol I'm finding this funnier than I probably should lol

[lilteapot]

Yeah giving up an unproven rookie for a 20 and 10 all star, what a terrible decision.

[julizaver]

They have Lebron at SF and need the rebounding power of Love ...

[r15mohd]

what is so proven about Wiggins that will make the Cavs regret this from now to within the next 5yrs or so?

[GimmeThat]

So, keep wiggins and trade waiters for shumpert, jr smish and sign dalembert?

:shrug:

[bagelred]

It was. It was terrible terrible decision. Overrated "All Star" for a #1 overall franchise level talent.

[zizozain]

lebron james = cancer

[livinglegend]

Remember when everyone said Lebron/Wade/Bosh wouldn't win any championship together.

[Collie]

Remember when everyone said Lebron/Wade/Bosh wouldn't win any championship together.

No, I don't remember "everyone" saying that.

[Bosnian Sajo]

Wow. Such power. Much impressive.

[livinglegend]

No, I don't remember "everyone" saying that.

I do! When they were down 2-3 against Celtics.

[Bosnian Sajo]

No, I don't remember "everyone" saying that.

Remember when most people said they wouldn't win a title doe?

[SamuraiSWISH]

Cleveland, city of losers.

:pimp:

cavs knew lebron can't take a young baby like wiggins, clean his diaper, and raise him to be a man, the way jordan did with pippen..

they knew lebron can't develop young talent - he needs his teammates to already be good.... like wade and bosh-type good...

basically, lebron needs sufficient established talent so that when he reduces his teammates, there is still enough left to still win it.

[I<3NBA]

yeah. didn't really liked that trade. Wiggins has a better chance of defending better than Kevin Love.

it was Kyrie and Dion i wanted to be traded. if they could have packaged them to get K. Love, it would've been a win.

You mean the way Pippen and Phil raised Jordan. 1-9 without Pippen/Phil in the playoffs.

I don't see why they had to get Love in the first place.

What is so bad about Tristan Thompson as your starting PF?

:oldlol: :oldlol: Thompson is garbage. Love will start beasting. Overreaction!

Their record wouldn't be better with Wiggins. I don't see what's everyone complaining about.

[DMAVS41]

You have to get Love a quality defensive center next to him. More than just about any PF in the game. Love makes Dirk look like Bill Russell on defense.

And that really isn't anything about Love. He can't protect the paint. So I think Mozgov will ultimately really help.

But this team needs more depth and another center.

At some point you gotta be responsible for yourself. Love needs to put on his big boy pants. He needs to find a mentor in that area. How many stars can say that the coaches have no faith in them in fourth quarters? This has been going on since his college days.

[SamuraiSWISH]

They'd be better, shockingly IMO, with Wiggins right now instead of Love. And going forward would definitely be better. Love's Minny stats don't reflect his actual court impact . Defensively, he's terrible. Wiggins athleticsm, length, and defensive ability would be a better fit now. And certainly what he could grow to become in the future. And I don't even like Wiggins.

[Dro]

It is pretty funny now that think I about it:lol

[Collie]

Disgruntled stars usually never net anything as good as a number one pick. OKC got Lamb, Martin and trash for Harden. NO got Eric Gordon and Kaman.

Adams is looking really promising in his young career so far. Wouldn't call him trash.

[I<3NBA]

idk. maybe you should try him in OKC as your starting PF. we'll trade him for Steven Adams.

[russwest0]

don't need him with Ibaka.

Ibaka is a perfect compliment to Russ and KD and I'm still laughing at idiots who told me Kevin Love is a better 3rd option, EVEN accounting for the cap hit each brings

[Relinquish]

Adams is looking really promising in his young career so far. Wouldn't call him trash.

And it's not like Harden was a star or disgruntled. He was a very good young player who went invisible in the finals.

[coin24]

Said it from day 1.. Big mistake..

The Cavs would have been better without bran and keeping all the young guys.
Now they look like shit, love will bolt and LeBald is on a steep decline:lol :lol

[LilEddyCurry]

Andrew Wiggins who is a SG has a higher standing reach than Kevin Love who is a PF..
http://www.fearthesword.com/2014/5/26/5750660/nba-draft-andrew-wiggins-and-joel-embiid-are-really-tall
The Timberwolves traded someone who was leaving for Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and a first round pick that is likely to be around the 15-20 range.

[Collie]

Forgot about him. Yeah he's pretty good, but at that time was probably more of a filler.

[bluechox2]

Lebron takes the star out of stars, just leaves them the s for shit

[imdaman99]

Lebron playing GM :roll:

[MiseryCityTexas]

They should have just traded Kyrie. They could've gotten a lot back for his overrated ass.

[GimmeThat]

they hit a 2 outter.

can't complain about the fold you made.



maybe they felt that given Blatt, Wiggins for Love was the right move.

[ILLsmak]

Wow. Such power. Much impressive.

haha

It's funny cuz even tho Love is a beast, power isn't a word that comes to mind when I think of him.

I remember when Kobe wanted to trade Bynum for Kidd...A real organization said no and we see how that worked out
