    Outside his brief stint with the Knicks he was never that impressive.
    Kendall Marshall was a 1 win share player this year and is playing in the Summer League.

    Lin was a 5.4 win share player 2 seasons ago a 4.4 win share player last season with a higher PER than Marshall.

    I disagree completely.

          Poor choice of words...I know that they have the option to match and make an offer for both Bosh and Parsons.....I'm questioining whether they will go over the LT.

            James Dolan logic. I need Carmelo, I offer everything.

            A smart team doesn't negotiate against itself. If someone offers Minnesota anything close to Wiggins in value, I'll agree. Until then, I strongly disagree.

                  Something I haven't seen anyone mention.... HOW are the Cavs gonna afford this team????!!!!!????

                  With Irving making 100 million , Lebron gonna be maxed out at 100+ , Varajao @ 9.7 million this coming season , then with the rest of the team .. I just don't see HOW at first thought ...without them going severely into the LT ... so there is NO WAY they are going to trade Wiggins for Love its not possible money wise

                      They made 70 million more profit than any other team, to a total of 100 million. So I don't think they really care.

                          Who can the lakers sign for 1 year (that wont blow up their master 2015 plan) that will take that kind of deal and would be better than Lin + 1st? This is a great trade for the Lakers.

                              They don't care as much about expenses as they do winning. Winning in that market generates a ton of revenue. Not to mention having the most famous active Asian player on your team is a financial boon. See Ming, Yao.

                              For the Bucks, it would be a bad move. For the Lakers, it's a no brainer

                                This team won't be paying tax yet. Eventually I'm sure they will get over it, Dan Gilbert doesn't seem to mind spending a lot of money.
