If Cavs get Love...lol from one super team to another.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

Where are the Scottie Pippen mentions coming from? I've seen that a lot in reference to Wiggins lately...

Apparently that's where people see his defensive potential.. I don't see it

Talks with Timberwolves ongoing, but Cavs standing firm on keeping Andrew Wiggins, sources say. @FOXSportsOH story: http://foxs.pt/1mSSbZF

Man I don't know what to believe espn sports center tweeted 20 min ago that Cavs ARE open to trading Wiggins now.

Also What teams are even potential spots for Bledsoe ?

5 years 80 mil is only 16 a year.. It's not quite as bad as it sounds. For how much everyone else is getting overpaid it's not bad at all.

One team I thought of was Philadelphia. They have tons of cap space and could pair him with MCW in the backcourt. Other than that, I'm not sure which teams are interested, or which ones would have enough space.
Ultimately, I think he'll end up back in Phoenix for around what he was reportedly offered.

The only problem I have with Wiggins is that he has history of being inconsistent.

I think it's pretty bad considering that he missed half the season last year. If I were to see him play at a high level, with starters minutes for a whole season, then I would feel more comfortable with that contract.
But that's just my opinion and I've never been a big fan of his.

Philly is pretty much the only team left with the cap space for him, though a team like Milwaukee could probably clear the space if they need/wish to.

Regarding interested teams, the three teams that have reportedly been interested in him are Milwaukee, Sacramento, and Houston.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

Bleacher report tweeted something about Lebron reportedly contacted Kevin Love and said he would love to play with him

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

Really? Why shouldn't he try and get the max? Unless some team is stupid enough to give it to him, he'll like settle a lot closer to 50 mil.

Actually he probably will get the max because NBA GM's are morons.

The Suns have all the negotiating power. He and his agent have none. Let him try to get that much----he's not getting anywhere near it. Nor should he.

Yeah it all comes down to how healthy he is.
But it's really right around the amount they were going to pay Eric Gordon per year, so I'm thinking they'll at least come pretty close to giving him the money he wants.

And now if Miami wouldn't have thrown 10 mil a year at Deng and not signed back Mario, they could have tossed out an offer around 14-15 a year and possibly taken him from Phoenix.
But for some reason they just really wanted Deng..

Looks to me like he'll probably end up staying with Phoenix then. Unless Milwaukee can make enough room to give him a huge offer.

That doesn't mean you compound the problem just because everyone else is overpaying.
