Who Goes To Miami?
Re: Who Goes To Miami?
I wouldn't deal Love to Cleveland without getting T. Thompson in addition to Wiggins.

They're shopping Jack with a 1st round pick apparently. I'd think someone would be willing to take an overpaid PG with a 1st for nothing.
Jack is a nice player I wish we had room for him. Yeah he is a little overpaid, but he is also a guy thats may even be a legit starter on the right team (he would be a good player for Miami actually) and is a heck of a 6th man.

Tristin Thompson is a very nice young talent at the PF position. I can't see us turning him and Waiters into something better.
This would actually be the point of including Thompson for me. Its more a compliment that he could carry Waiters value. I'm sure some team would go for it. If I thought Bennett would help the cause, I'd substitute him for TT but I do not.
I guess the Wolves could risk Waiters being a nuisance in the locker room but I'm not personally interested.

Bingo. I still think Love/Budinger for Wiggins/Waiters/Thompson/Gee/Hopson is the way to go for both teams.
Waiters needs a change of scenery. His talent is there, but playing with Kyrie has frustrated the hell out of him, in my opinion. I'd look to keep him and start him, thus making Martin the odd man out.

Martin and Barea for Gordon
Waiters and Thompson for Millsap
Rubio MLE
Gordon Lavine
Wiggins Brewer Bazz

The big 3 splitting is good for the NBA. I see Lebron signing with Cavs. Bosh Houston. Wade with Heat. I really hope the Lakers land Melo. The NBA is not right when the Lakers suck,

Yeah.. if the Wolves didn't have Brewer, LRMAB, JJ, Bud & Martin all making 4.5 to 6.8 mill respectively it would make a ton of sense to take Jack & a 1st rounder next year with little to nothing back to CLE.

No he needs to stay in NYC lol. Bosh should stay in MIA with Wade. Too much damn talent in the West.
Re: Who Goes To Miami?
My issue with Waiters is he is short for a SG. He is 6' 2.5" without shoes so he is a max of 6'4" in shoes. Thats almost an inch shorter than Mayo who is undersized. I really don't know alot about Waiters and his stats look pretty interesting but thats something to consider. I don't get too caught up in size etc, but I thought that is worth noting. It seems like he is a polarizing guy I just haven't seen him play much at all to say one way or another.
