Cavs not done yet

Cavs working three team deal w/ Warriors/TWolves. Warriors get multiple 1st rnd picks. Wolves get Klay and Tristan Thompson. Love to Cavs

Those people that thought they were getting Cleve at a good price at 30-1 better check things when teams played together for the first year. Even the Heat didn't win it all with the BIG3 when they first got together. Teams have to play together at least one year before they jell!

That was an impressive feat the Celtics pulled off that year. BAGIANT is right tho. It usually takes a while. But I think if the Cavs can somehow land Love for Tristan Thompson and a couple of #1 picks ( they have 3 next year), they will be really tough going into the season if they all able to keep Waiters, Wiggins, and Bennett and still get Love.

Anyone who got the Cavs at 30/1 are in great shape no matter what !! You don't have to win it all to collect on a 30/1 wager. You can start covering your future wager before the final. I think they will be the favorite to win the East.

If Rose is healthy, not way they are favored over Chicago or even Indiana.

I think if they do land Kevin Love, they will be favorites in the East.

NickPappagiorgio · Jul 13, 2014

Why would Golden State make that trade? Makes no sense for them.

IF Rose is healthy has become a longshot IMHO You must remember that LeBron & Co. won the East 4 years with Miami ! Getting to the East final is all you have to accomplish to cash a nice profit on a 30/1 future wager !

Don't compare Miami to Cleveland. Very different teams and situations.

Lol!! Not favored over Indiana gimme a break!

Because they have LBJ and Irving? Let's not kid ourselves here. Cleveland is drastically better than they were a year ago but right now, they are not better than Chicago or Indiana.

Enfuego · Jul 13, 2014

Without LBJ, the Cavs were one player away from making the Eastern Conference playoffs. Now, they are the favorite to win the entire conference? No way.

Zero chance cavs with love would be dogs to indiana, and I'd say pretty much zero chance they'd be dogs without love too.

Are you forgetting that they also have Bradley Wiggins ? This kid is a Stud who I watched play at Kansas. I think in some ways He was holding back a lot at Kansas kinda playing not to get injured as He was always projected by most to be the top player in this year's draft. There's a chance that they might trade Wiggins to get Love but I doubt they will. Don't they have like 3 First round picks next year ? I think they trade these picks to get more help in the paint ! Once again, All you have to do is GET to the East final to cash a nice profit on a 30/1 future. I wish I had that future ticket. However having the Cavs favored to win it all is simply foolishness IMHO

JakeT. · Jul 13, 2014

Bulls win it all with a healthy D. Rose. Then again I've said that the last 2 years as well.

Hell, depending how much one put on it you could start hedging earlier in the playoffs.

You mean Andrew Wiggins? The 19-year-old that has never played a minute in the NBA?

If Indiana had the #1 seed and Cleveland either #2 or #3, why not? What has Cleveland showed you in the last week to show otherwise?

Sorry ... Yes I meant Andrew Wiggins as I'm a Tour De france guy and just finish ed posting on the Tour. LOL. Wiggins looks to be one of those special " Can't Miss " type players. You are simply going to overlook him as a factor..... big mistake. Cavs picking Anthony Bennett last year was a joke and everyone pretty much was shocked by that pick. He wasn't very good playing for UNLV and I live here in Vegas ! Have you seen him play ? Wiggins is an awesome talent and barring injury He will be a factor in NBA for many years. Just because He's never played a minute in the NBA isn't a reason to overlook him. Hasn't every rookie in the history of the game started their NBA career without having played one minute in the NBA ??
