    Who's going to beat them? Rose with one knee Chicago? The Nets? The Heat? LOL

Over the next year or two Love is easily the safer bet to help get it done....but when Wiggins is likely to be the better bet to help LeBron win it all in 3 years....will LeBron still be LeBron?

    No matter how it's done....Cleveland is sitting way prettier and should be a Finals team....but the fans and city need a championship, it doesn't have to be this year or the next...but then LeBron's age and wear may become a significant factor.
    Love with a gutted bench doesn't beat the Spurs either. The best way for Cleveland to win a championship is to keep the team and wait for Tim Duncan to retire.

    I still say the Cavs aren't going to trade Wiggins. They would have done it already if that was truly on the table because its hard to believe the Wolves would pass up that kind of prospect for a dead-end player.

    They couldn't bc he wasn't signed yet like LHS mentioned. Cap wise is was impossible for Cleveland.

    They can agree to a trade in principle and execute it once Wiggins is signed and tradeable.

    I'd be mush more excited about this if I knew for sure they were going to keep him.
  • sportchampps
    Well he can't be traded for Atleast the next month now.

    I don't see why everyone is in a rush to dump Wiggins already, before he plays one minute in the league. If he comes in, and is struggling, Minnesota will still make that deal for him in February, but at least Cleveland would've gotten an actual look at him on the court.

    I just want to see him play before we right write him off we would ship him off. Same with Bennett, I want to see what he brings when healthy/in shape.

    So what will it take to beat the Spurs this year?

    Continue to hear, despite Andrew Wiggins' name likely coming up in talks, Cavs have not offered him in any trade proposal.

    I tend to believe this, because if he was actually offered the deal would be done by now IMO.

    I don't know much about Windhorst except that he went to SVSM while Lebron was there but is this guy really legit?

    Windhorst has sauces.

    He was 100% sure Kyrie was leaving, and I am pretty sure he was near 100% sure Lebron wasn't coming to cleveland.

    He just reminds me of a fat Jonah Hill who probably followed Lebron around. Seems like he has some weird obsession with him.

    He's his meal ticket. No pun intended. Without LBJ, Windy is just some local hack.

    I think if they hired a diff coach besides Blatt, kyrie def would be gone.

    Apparently Blatt blew Kyrie away in their meeting.
