who's going to be the third team to help out the CLE/Minn trade? Phoenix?

Minnesota's been determined to unload Kevin Martin and JJ Barea in a Love deal -- no easy task for Cavs to make work without a third team.

No Wiggins for Minny. No way they take that crap off their hands AND give them Wiggins.
Eff the Wolves. Teams interested in Love should just hold off until Nov. Minny will come down off of their pedestal. Those idiots should be ecstatic to have Wiggins.

This. I don't understand what the big rush is. The only leverage the Wolves have is time before the trade deadline. Their leverage diminishes the longer this drags out, and they will eventually be desperate to deal him. If Cleveland stays patient they can get Love without dealing Wiggins. The Wolves can't just deal him anywhere either. Love has to agree to sign an extension with the new team, or else a trade can't happen. That severely limits their options.
Cavs and Utah just made a trade to help the Cavs get some unguaranteed contracts to trade to the Wolves.
Malcolm Thomas, John Lucas III, and Erik Murphy are the three the Jazz sent to Cleveland.

Don't underestimate Cavs - they're certifiably stupid.

They'll do whatever Bron tells them. Bron wants Love. Bottom line.

From the outside looking in, I bet you the front office and owner may not want to deal Wiggins. And they will just to please Lebron. And rightfully so. He did leave one of the best cities in the country for that place.

I've no doubt Lebron told them to get Kevin Love. It's how they're going about it. They can get Love without giving up Wiggins.

no they cant.....the only reason they can afford him now is because they will be able to send contracts back in return

Cleveland & Utah just made a small trade where CLE receives 3 non-guaranteed contracts. Only reason you trade for non-guaranteeds is to cut them or trade them. Could be a pre-cursor to an imminent Love trade.
