Love for Ibaka

[Im Still Ballin]

Would Cleveland do this?

Would OKC do this?

Love and Kanter as your rim protectors? Hell no.

The salaries dont match either.

So OKC replaces their 14/8 player with a 26/13/5 player?:eek:

If it were allowed to happen right now OKC would win the championship even without Durant.

ibaka is hella underrated

[Im Still Ballin]

Love is a 17/10 3rd option

Ibaka is a third option

Yeah you'd need to throw in some others to balance the salaries

Ibaka would be an amazing fit. He spreads the floor with his jumpers and plays good D. Mozgov and ibaka would be a nightmare for opponents

[Beastmode88]

Seriously how much help does the cavs need. Do you guys just want a team with 0 weaknesses? :biggums: :biggums:

Ibaka/Roberson for Mozgov

I'm 100% sure you're not aware there's a defensive side to basketball.

Yes, no.

Ibaka is probably only second to Davis in defense among PFs and can space the floor. When you already have Kanter, you need Ibaka to cover up for him.
Thunder already has enough offense anyway.

OKC = Automatic champs

Westbrook/Augustin
Roberson/Morrow
Durant/Waiters
Love/McGary
Adams/Kanter

Yep, automatic champs.

[SwishSquared]

If I'm Cleveland, I don't do that deal straight up. Ibaka + Augustin + Morrow is more in line with how salaries would need to matchup if it's a S&T (only possibility to get Love in OKC). But even Ibaka + Augustin would make a big difference for CLE imo. Both understand they're role players and are on reasonable contracts.

Love once again relegated to 3rd wheel status tho....

Ibaka is a 2nd option atm, as is Love. And Love's averages would bump back up to the same ones he had last year, if not better alongside Westbrook. He actually makes his teammates better.

Love is the better player by far. Cavs just need to get him more involve as a post player.
