You can never have too many PFs.

 

This is good for Cleveland IMO.  I like Thompson's hustle and two way game at his contract better than what Love will get.

 

But, this sucks also for Cleveland since they traded away a star in the making to bring in Love.

Thonpson-Mozgov wouldn't be a successful backcourt for 82 games. For LeBron to be most effective the 4 man should be a shooter as well, to open up the lane. Also, Thompson's D isn't that good (he's average) it's just better than Love's atrocious D.

I would take Thompson at his contract over the contract that Love is going to command.  That is all.  I do think Love plays better with Lebron than does Thompson, I'm just considering the financial implications.

Thompson declined a $13 million per contract. He is going to get paid by someone.

I'm not sure Kevin Love would come here, but if he did, would pairing him and Al Jefferson be a good fit for one another? 

For me, if he leaves Cleveland I think the Celtics or Lakers could be the landing spot for him. Imagine if the Lakers pull off a trade for Demarcus Cousins (eg #2 and Randle for DMC) and Love signs for them. Suddenly they have Clarkson, Kobe, Love, and Cousins as 4/5ths of their starting line up. All they'd need is to find a SF and their starting line up could be pretty competitive next season if they stay healthy.

Also, we should ask for Boston's first and Gerald Wallace for them to clear space in a Love sweepstakes.  

Are the guys not already up against the limit? Adding crashs 8 mill would unleash the tax nazis. It would add further insult to missing the playoff too.

yes.  I'm playing in fantasy land back when we had cap space. 

 

Instead we've now get 3 guys with 10+ mil salaries and not a single all star.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Okay, so answer this one then, since you said you can't answer something you don't think will happen...... You have said numerous times in the past that even though you want them, you don't think Deion will allow us to take his son or Hunter. You then taking Ward #1 over T-Mac just because he's the QB?

      Thanks for that sounds very interesting.   I have a scientific mind usually and don’t believe in wide spread conspiracy theories but with the NBA it’s so obvious.  The fuggin rigged draft is something only an idiot wouldn’t see.  But the NBA is 100% about big market money.  It’s not even a real league.  It’s 10 teams that have a shot.

      This response is absolutely and utterly insane, I've literally this same thing out multiple times in previous posts about mock drafts, like a bunch of times. I've never once denied it's a possibility of them going #1, I've just said that I wouldn't take them there. And YET AGAIN, you're proving that you don't believe they are elite QB prospects, you literally just said "first prospects off the board REGARDLESS OF TALENT" It's literally what I've been saying this whole time, these QB's don't have the draft grades to deserve that pick.  They're only being mocked there because mocks are trying to predict the draft, not saying who deserves to be drafted where.   Dude, this is exactly why I question your reading comprehension skills.  You keep trying to say you got me with something, but in those exact posts you're just proving my points, the literal opposite of catching me in some lie or moment of ignorance.
