<t>I voted Cavs win, but there have been some interesting points made in this thread.<br/> <br/> Here's some things that I've also considered. What were Thomas and Crowder before Brad Stevens and the Celtics? Will the be the same players in a different system? If they will be and Thomas is healthy t...

Cleveland got a very nice haul for Irving. Two proven players and a likely top 5 pick. Don't see any team outside of the Suns that could have given a better return.

<r><QUOTE author="khans2k5"><s>[quote="khans2k5"]</s>I'd be fine with Tony Allen. We're talking bear minimum minutes at this point with Crawford/Butler/Wiggins on the wing. 10-15 minutes a night maybe to check at least one guy while Crawford and Tyus are on the floor. I'd at least lock him up and st...

If he is Derozan 2.0 I would be more than happy with that. How could you not be? He may not be Kobe or Lebron, but we have other guys that can take that number one role.

<r><QUOTE author="Brooklyn_Wolves"><s>[quote="Brooklyn_Wolves"]</s>I'll believe it when it happens. Towns and Wigz were part of 30 win team. Butler 40 win team last two seasons.

<r><QUOTE author="khans2k5"><s>[quote="khans2k5"]</s>If Wiggins is truly off limits sign him to the max extension and be done with the drama.

<r><QUOTE author="lipoli390"><s>[quote="lipoli390"]</s>Apparently, the Cavs want three types of assets in return for Kyrie: (1) a starter, (2) a young player on a rookie scale deal, and (3) draft picks. So what can the Wolves do to meet this asking process. Here are two possibilities:<br/> <br/> 1. ...

<t>Doing the deal gives you a two year window to win it all. Is it enough though? Is Towns, Butler, and Irving better than Love, James, and Irving? The first year of the run there will be a hole at SG. Maybe you can flip Teague for a good SG, or maybe he and Irving can coexist in the same backcourt....
