LeBron is taking his talents to the beaches of Lake Erie

I'm not sure what's been said on this subject in the thread, but this Cavs team is much better than LeBron's Heat team from this past year if they add Love.

LeBron = LeBron. Irving >> broken down Wade. Love > Bosh. It's not really close. And if the Spurs stand pat, it's close between the two with Cleveland coming out of the east. If they don't sign Love, LeBron will be in trouble as far as winning a title, but I think he's prepared for that as well.

Lebron knows that the window Miami had basically closed and that they can't beat a team from the West 4 of 7. As such, he jumps to another team in the East that has the assets to win there. Just so happens it's CLE so he can produce this narrative of coming home.

Whatever. Just match Hayward already and see if we can get some salary dumps for picks so we understand where this team is heading.

Im curious.
If we sign this max deal for hayward then will that limit what we can do as far as taking on other teams "salary dumps"

Well, if we do a deal before we match, only his QO counts as a cap hold (About 4.5M IIRC). After we match it I'm guesstimating with Hood and Exum we will have right around $53M-$55M under contract. So without trades we can take dumps to the cap threshold of $64, right?

I think if they want to take on assets, there is probably time to do it before we match Hayward's offer. With LeBron signing, everything will start falling into place quickly.

Edit: I think we would have a mid-level exception too, not sure.
 
I'd almost rather just let Kevin Love opt out next summer if all Cleveland thinks they have to offer is Bennet, Waiters, and a first rounder that's going to suck. Those two jokers almost have negative trade value.

They should keep Wiggins. Trade Waitors, Thompson, and picks for Love. If Cavs trade Wiggins for Love, it would just show how nearsighted and incompetent the Cavs Front Office still is.

Why the hell would minny trade their best player for garbage? Klay Thompson is 100x better than Cleveland's garbage.

My guess? Love is going to walk after this next season and will decide on a number of teams. The LA Lakers will be a strong contender for his services.
 
Remember how bad Cleveland HATED DuhBron when he left? Burned jerseys, billboards, articles, etc.? It is all sorts of fun watching Cleveland "fans" welcome him back.

Reminds me of how Ute fans used to sling vitriol at the BCS whenever they could, until that magical day when they were admitted to the "Cool Kids Club" and then it was all roses and nice things to say.

Both fan bases are pathetic beyond rational thought.
