Cavs not interested any longer?

[Fishsticks]

Apparently like Orlandos offer.

https://basketball.realgm.com/wiret...andos-Offer-Of-Afflalo-Nos-4-12-For-No-1-Pick

The Philadelphia 76ers, Orlando Magic and Utah Jazz have all offered their high lottery picks plus a veteran to move up to No. 1 in a deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers aren't enamored by offers from the 76ers (Thad Young and the No. 3 pick) and Jazz (Derrick Favors and the No. 5 pick).

But the Magic offer of Arron Afflalo, along with the No. 4 and No. 12 pick is attractive to the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers have strong interest in signing LeBron James and acquiring Afflalo would be seen as a strong move.

Fine by me. The Cavs got exactly what they wanted, a bidding war with teams with lots of assets.

I don't trust anything associated with Cleveland. Owner enjoys stirring the pot just to watch the potatoes swirl.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Who knows. The fact is they're taking calls. So we'll see.

rumors are rumors. We just need to wait 2 more days and figure it out

Call me crazy but with the question marks around both Wiggins and Gordon but I'm inclined to stay at 5 and take Gordon. He definitely has an attitude I like. Will work hard. I don't know if Wiggins will develop the same try-hard attitude and might disappear a lot in games. And, on top of that, he costs you Favors. Meh.

This. I stopped trying to piece **** together every Sunday before the draft. What will be is what will be, and everybody lies about what it currently is.

That's where I am at with this. I think Wiggins could be great, but there is a lot that has to go right. Gordon could be great and worst case he's Kenneth Faried. We need a guy who brings it every night.

Still think our offer looks better, but maybe cavs want to do more deals or something.

 

[Qman]

I hope our rumored deal is what the Cavs wish we were offering. Not what we were in fact offering.

 

[Jazz Traveler]

I'd like to see us keep Cleveland dangling as long as possible and try to work something out with Milwaukee or Philly in the meantime.

It would be so satisfying to pull the rug out from under the Cavs.

Our offer is the best of the bunch. Cleveland wants an established two-way big, we're only team of the bunch that has put that one the table.
