Crazy that all these trades happen and Kevin Love, the guy who has been in every trade rumor forever, is still on the team.

Adrian Wojnarowski Verified account @wojespn Cleveland is trading Dwyane Wade to Miami, league sources tell ESPN. Who did we get for DWade? I think we just cleaned up the locker room, as well.

Man, talk about rebuilding the team in one fell swoop ..... while still holding onto the Brooklyn pick.

It would be nice if we got a C back .... maybe Olynyk, or maybe Haslem, who Miami was reportedly trying to move. Man, the Cavaliers got younger and more athletic in a hurry. I like it!  I think we just cleaned up the locker room, as well.

Luck was with you! My son bought me tickets to the Spurs game Feb 25th as a Christmas gift. This could be as ugly as last night's game. At least I'll get to see the legends Pops, Parker and Ginobli live. Not sure what's going on with Leonard. Well this all of a sudden became a fun gift again.

Right? frye and wade are the only two I'm upset (ish) about, Wade played great defense on the second unit, I think that had to be a favor for him, and frye was the only true backup for love. I'd still like to move JR/TT and the nets pick for kemba and batum

From David Griffin: As you know better than anyone, Bobby, perception and reality typically have a spurious connection at best. Koby Altman and the @cavs front office were never in over their heads, just handed a nearly untenable situation and have found a way to thrive in the adversity! https://twitter.com/dg_riff/status/961666450531512320

we aren't winning anything without love. All you need is love.. love is all you need. With these trades, anything short of running the table the rest of the way will be a total disappointment and prove it wasn't worth it. (thought I would get the negativity started...  )

From Windy..... Brian Windhorst Verified account @WindhorstESPN Cavs are taking on long-term money and helping the Lakers clear cap space, opening up LA's 2018 free agency dreams. The Cavs are wagering they're keeping LeBron with this move. Brian Windhorst Verified account @WindhorstESPN Cavs will now be barred from trading the Brooklyn Nets pick they own until after the draft. So that issue can be retired. Tweet So we gave up a first, and still have a first? I’m down with that, if I’m reading this right.
WE DON'T NEED A QB BEFORE WE GET A LINE THAT CAN PROTECT HIM my two cents...

I think that is why everything that happened to day is great if LeBron stays but is still pretty darn good if he doesn't.. use that pick on a stud and we aren't starting from scratch with one good player like we would have been.
