And with the report that the Wolves aren't blown away with the Celtics offer, this might lead me to believe that it was just really poor timing on Love's part.
But we're back to the big question. If Love doesn't want out, why doesn't he just say so. "Because he doesn't have to" isn't a good enough reason.
Fingers crossed that before the end of June, Dan Gilbert falls in love with the idea of Kyrie & Kevin. Then they can sign the Bulls assistant to be their HC and overpay for Luol Deng. That team's probably good enough for top-six in the East if healthy (Irving, FA, Deng, Love, Varejao). Hell, they could even give Stephenson a fat contract and see if he bites. Yay for the Cavs! I just want that No. 1 pick, Waiters and Thompson. Cough it up.
Love for number 1 and others is still the best deal out there. I agree that wiggins,parker,embiid will be the best value we can get for love.
Of the teams picking 1-3. Only cle is a realiatic option since they already have a star in place in kyrie and has rights to deng and other young assets that might make love ghink about resigning with them.

Could make a deal with the Kings too. If Boston sent Green, Olynyk, 6, 17 and 2016 BRK 1st for Love and Budinger. Send Green to SAC for 8. Would still try to climb up to 5 with 8 + 17 + Martin. We'd be looking at 5, 6 and 13 in the draft.
Rubio/Barea
Smart/Stauskas
Muhammad/Brewer
Randle/Olynyk
Pekovic/Dieng
Kings could have a big role for us in either CHI/BOS trade as we could try to use them and cash-in a player for a top-10 pick. Or at least I assume that we could from everything I've seen.

Jeff Green is going to get us the 8th pick?

It's possible. Reports have been that the Kings want to trade their pick for a worthy veteran. Green could fit in that PF-hybrid position next to Cousins. I think Green or Gibson (CHI) could get that 8 pick.

That makes the Chicago and Boston trades more attractive. I wonder if they would have any interest in bringing Kevin Martin home.
