Rumor: Kevin Love to Cleveland

[D-FENS]

I hear rumors all the time from connected people, but this one is picking up considerable heat.

If the Cavs are unhappy with Embiid's medical, they will look to trade the pick with Tristan Thompson for Kevin Love and Corey Brewer.

I see why the Cavs would want to do that, it means they think they have a shot at resigning Deng as well.

For the Wolves it means they are really considering trading Love and building around Rubio. There are some athletes (Wiggins) that would benefit greatly from playing with Ricky.

It's not a rumor, more of people just discussing it. I don't see Love signing an extension there as of now. Who know though.

So they get Kevin Love for one year rent and then he takes his talent to the south beach?

seriously, you haven't heard shit.

It doesn't bother me if you believe me or not, it's your loss.

Just so you know I have broken a few trades and draft signings here, on Real GM and a couple of team websites.

Anyway, this is a rumor from a reliable source of mine. Take it for what it's worth.

yeah doesn't really make sense to me.

No need for the cavs to risk getting Boozered again.

Love would have to pick up his 2015/16 option for this to even have a chance of happening

I wouldn't trade the #1 pick for Love. Not when you have to have enough talent there to convince him to stay after the deal. If Embiid can stay healthy I'd wager he has a career as good as Love is having or better, Love beats him in scoring and probably rebounding but great defensive centers are more likely to anchor champions than scoring pfs that let their man score as well.

They're still trying to win now. They think by bringing Love in that they can retain Deng in free agency. The coaching change should help as well.

Cavs probably looking for a well-rounded line-up like this:
CT: Varejao
PF: Love
SF: Deng/ Brewer
SG: Waiters
PG: Irving

I think they'd have to include their other first round pick in the deal as well. A lot of these Eastern teams that were in the lottery are serious about playing playoff basketball this coming season. They see a lot of room to move up in the east.

Kyrie-Bron-Love? Not too shabby

[robert de niro]

as a wolves fan I do it but I really don't understand why the cavs would do that

[Shade8780]

Sullinger, Bass, Johnson and #6 pick to Minny for Love.
