Kevin Love is a Cav

Confirmed via the Woj bomb

He's agreed to sign a 5 year 120+ million extension at the end of the year as well.

Looks like I was wrong on the part where he said he wouldn't immediately agree to sign an extension with any team.



This team should be unstoppable on offense but their defense will leave much to be desired. Can Irving/Love/Varejao all stay healthy and play 70+ games as well?

Yeah, you're pretty much spot on IMO with the concerns to consider this season. Also, as much as I like Love, 5 yr/120 mil?!?! Idk about that.

[TexasMajor]

Manziel is going to need more help than that, Mitch.

[gerzv]

great move. wiggins is going to be very overrated

[srom12]

Agreed. Offense will be dynamite. But spurs will probably average 170 points per game against them in the finals.

But who was defense?

[denny2008]

He signed passed the new TV deal, CBA and the higher salary cap in 2 years...?

They better hope that the new tv deal raises the cap immensely or they will face the same problem that Miami did. Irving just got extended for 90+ mil. Love at 120+ mil and Lebron getting a max every year. That's a good bit more money tied up in their big 3 than the Heat had tied up in theirs.


Will Dan Gilbert be willing to pay the luxury tax and the insanely steep repeater tax in order to keep Lebron happy and this team on top?

[notwengif021]

The deal is 24 mil/year, which would be suffocating now considering LBJ and Irving's deals, but will be more tolerable for the Cavs after the new TV deal/CBA deflates the value of these contracts, while still reasonable for Love to balance winning and money.

Can't wait to play them. Good signing by cavs.

[JetLife21]

The T'Wolves are going to be an exciting bunch next season as well. That fast break with Rubio running the point and Wiggins and Lavine on the wings. Highlights everywhere.

[notwengif021]

But who was defense?

The Cavs were going to have to find more defensive pieces over these next couple of years anyway, Wiggins alone would not be the answer.

I mean, really, people were acting like Wiggins would be the next Tony Allen when it came to these Love vs Wiggins arguments.

I don't think he is talking about losing Wiggins when he says but who was defense.


He's talking about 2 of the big 3 being liabilities on defense. Kyrie was rated as a worse defender than James Harden last year. Varejao is their current starting center and he has missed far more games than he has played over the past 4 years.

I know. I just figured that I might as well bring it up since many were making the argument.

[BreakToBuild]

This will make things a little more interesting. Time to see if Love is the real deal or just a no playoff exp stat-padder exploiting crap team superstar status.

[LikeAMachine]

Sign Marion and Ray Allen, I'll be at the Parade.


People are so stupid, like the Cavs were actually going to make that trade if he wasn't going to sign an extension.....I swear to god, sports misc man

Has Kyrie ever played more than 60 games in a season? Because Love has only done it a few times in six years.

Sign Marion and Ray Allen, I'll be at the Parade.

This is the Cavs we're talking about, one of the worst run franchises in the league. It was not outlandish to assume they would do that.

Anyway, have fun in Cleveland, Love. You can visit all the factories and... warehouses?

Meanwhile D-Rose, Noah, Taj, McD, Pau, Butler and Miriotic will be busy in a real city, dominating the rest of the conference while Kyrie struggles to learn how to do anything but hog the ball.

I dunno, how did Pat Riley win exec of the year?
