Cavs not own the 1st overall pick, the 19th, 31st and 33rd. could look to make some killer moves in the offseason see what you think. Im looking at a fairy tale lebron return and they could make some potentiall very strong teams.

1.) Kevin Love to Cavs for pick 1 + trsitan thompson/picks

Irving Waiters James Love Varejo a possiblity here?

Cavs need boards and Love is one of the best in the business.

2. Cavs trade pick 19th, 31st and 33rd for 13th from the mavs and get another highly rated young player and pick up Shabazz Muhammad or Alex Len.

3. pick 1 for Al Hroford.

Irving Waiters James Thompson Hroford not a bad starting 5.

4. pick 1 + zeller for Lemarcus Alrdgide


Irving Waiters James Thompson Aldrigde is a killer starting 5.

No team is going to want to trade up in this draft and give up a whole lot.

I also don't see the Wolves being dumb enough to trade Love although they did disrespect the man this year with some comments that were made. Love did not handle it the best either but they do have a good young core there and are only one shooter away from being a playoff team. Love & Rubio are going to give a lot of teams headaches when they finally get on the court together. It is not often you have a big man who is such a beast at rebounding and scrapping for points while also being able to stretch the floor. Budinger was providing some scoring before he got injured, Shved had an up and down rookie season but provided some scoring, Williams will be a very good big man to come off the bench in a rotation, JJ is an awesome scoring option off the bench but they still need that consistent 3 point scoring threat and another lock down defender, especially when Kirilenko leaves/retires. They need to keep that core together and try and add some pieces. Injuries derailed their season this year, they are one to watch next season.

Yup. They get two key players back in Rubio and Love. Love was out for the majority of the season and Rubio was out and then restricted for most of the time he came back. They got some much needed development into some rookie and sophomores (Shved and Williams). Unfortunately for them the West is so competitive, if they played in the east they would be a lock for playoffs, but in the west they are fighting for a bottom position. The Brandon Roy punt also did not work out. He was the guy they needed to be able to fire with a healthy squad. Poor guy will never be able to get that knee right.

Give Bynum that same respect? :P

Pekovic has evolved into a quality big, AK is still a great big and Rubio + Love has the potential to be one of the best pg/big combo's in the league imo.

East will be interesting with both Washington and Cleveland hoping for their first playoff spot in a while.

Bynum I have no sympathy for. Dude is a giant baby like Dwight and a complete moron. Instead of rehabbing his injured knee to play for his new team he finds another way to get injured by bowling. Roy on the other hand was a consummate professional. The trade for Philly will be based on what they do with the cap space they managed to free up by getting rid of Brickadala and getting Bynums contracts off the books. They were not going anywhere with the squad they had, they need to tank this coming season again, offload ET, let Hawesome, JRich and a few of the other dud contracts expire and build around Jrue, Thad, Moultrie, the hopefully high lotto draft pick they will get next season and a couple of free agents they can get with the cap space they will have.

Back to the Wolves, AK is a premier wing defender, but age is catching up, they lack defense and they need to find a replacement for him. Pekovic is a restricted free agent this season and will probably get offered big money. He still irks me when I watch him play. He is not the defensive presence they need him to be. He lets in to many easy baskets in the paint which is not what you want from your center when he is playing next to a guy like Kevin Love who may not be the best defender but is elite on the boards.

Just thought I'd can through the news headlines with trade rumors nba and picked out these....

Latest Trade/NBA Rumors:

Kidd wants to play on again, only with NY though.

Rockets want to clear cap space by getting rid of T-Rob for Dwight.

Josh Smith could be on the move, Atlanta have 7 free agents...  :o

Suns want to ship Beasley out ASAP.

Eric Bledsloe->Magic

Eric Gordon could be on the move, maybe to Phoenix. Or back to Clippers..

Cleveland could offer Pick One to Kings for DMC.

D.Granger to Cleveland.

Number one pick to Portland & Thompson for Aldridge.

Afflalo->Clippers.

Caron Butler->Magic

Peirce->Somewhere.  :P



Anyone got anymore to add?

I heard Paul could go to Atlanta or Mavs.

Yeah I am hearing same as you. Hawks and Mavs could really become contendors after this off season.

Hearing that Charlotte is the team Bynum is most likely to be at, not Philly. Good move for both parties, he will dominaye.
