Kevin Love has been in the NBA trade rumor mills for quite a while now. Cleveland Cavaliers has already denied the reports that they are trading their power forward and center, Love. However, Kevin Love's name is dragged into the NBA trade block again after reports surface that Cavs will be trading for New York Knicks' Carmelo Anthony to form its big three with LeBron James and Kyrie Irving.
At the time, Cleveland Cavaliers is at its strongest with LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. However, there are reports suggesting that Love is the odd player on the roster. In fact, James reportedly called Cavs to trade Love to Sacramento Kings' DeMarcus Cousins.
Unfortunately, we learned that Kings is interested in the deal if the current NBA champ would send Kyrie Irving and not Kevin Love. On Cavs end, they would rather keep their current roster than lose Irving, their valuable point guard.
New reports suggest that Cleveland Cavaliers is moving on from DeMarcus Cousins and is now eyeing to acquire New York Knicks' small forward Carmelo Anthony. According to the BitBag, Cavs will likely trade Kevin Love to acquire Anthony. In fact, the Love and Anthony swap is on the top priority list of the team. The power combination of LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Carmelo Anthony is believed to be the champ's great defense to the super team, Golden State Warriors.
We understand that Cleveland Cavaliers is pressured to improve their roster because their toughest contender in their next NBA title has the strongest roster in the NBA league. The Warriors has four NBA superstars including Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and the previous OKC Thunder small forward, Kevin Durant.
