Re: We won't get Wiggins in the end
Is this the fire and pitchfork thread for Flip if he doesn't get the job done? I could get on board with that.

Only if he chooses Thompson over Wiggins.

Looks like Cleveland is going to sign Wiggins this week. Don't know if that is a good or bad thing, but Flip will really come off looking bad in my opinion if it is determined that he kept Love with Wiggins on the table. If he keeps Love and Love leaves for nothing, that is a fire-able offense in my opinion even though I know he wouldn't be fired.

Makes it easier to match contracts if Wiggins is signed.

That's the reason why I can't tell if this is good or bad. If they wanted more than just Love or wanted to give back less, this helps in those goals.

Re: We won't get Wiggins in the end
MIN: Wiggins, Bennett, Thompson or Waiters, Haywood + future 1st = $18M-ish
CLE: Love, Brewer = $20.4M-ish
Makes sense from everything I've heard. I love Brewer, but I'm certainly good with dealing him.

Well hopefully they announce a trade when he's signed even if they have to wait 30 days to officially do it. BTW, you can remove Haywood from that deal and it still works. I doubt they'd want to include him unless they had to. That deal with work for me, but I'm really torn on who I would want to unload in terms of Brewer/Bud/Martin b/c I'm looking at how they would fit with the young prospects.

The more I think about it, the more I believe Brewer makes sense for both teams. Minnesota needs to keep as many shooters as possible since Love is being sent out, and Wiggins could slide into Brewer's role as soon as his rookie year. For Cleveland, Brewer could be an energy guy off the bench or even start for them. His offensive/defensive stats say he's better suited as a SG, and a Brewer/Miller wing combo off the bench would be nice for them if that's the route they took.
