Would you trade Ariza/Dwight for Kevin Love?

Yup. But first try to use love to recruit Durant. ( and if llull ve doesnt work even after that trade him anyway).
Trading love this summer or generally next year will be much easier if we get him because most teams will have capspace to absorb his salary( or will be piece of cake to clear it) so they can send us smaller rookie contracts and picks.

For example :
1)take love.
2) spend the rest of the season seeing if its possible to fit here
3) bring him to the Durant meeting. Much easier to pitch Durant when there is another star in the team and not only Harden.
4) get Durant? Great. See if it can work. Dont get Durant? Thats ok. Try to pitch Batum or perhaps Whiteside.
5) If love doesnt work trade him and get back multiple young cheap prospects and picks while clearing capspace to try recruit other FA Next summer.

Example of a Love trade that will be feasible this summer : Love for Ilyasova + Kcp + Stanley Johnson + a 1st.
Kcp and Johnson are cheap young wings with potential and great defenders.

Love for Smart + Crowder and a first.
Love for Hezonja + A.Gordon + a first or Harris.
if kroenke remains delusional and desperate in wanting a star: Love for Gallinari + Barton.
If sharver does the same : Love for Bledsoe + Len
Etc etc deals will be much easier because everyone will have capspace.
But as you said the possibillity that Lebron wants so much Dwight is small and so is this trade. Doesnt mean its not to our big advantage. We steal value.

Great post, totally agree.

Dwight for Love, in a general sense, I would be in favor of - mainly because I think Dwight's market value is lower than Clutchfans would think it is, and I expect something of a pupu platter to be the real haul.

Throwing Ariza in there as a sweetener is too much. So I'd either want something more like Dwight and Jones for Love, or Dwight and Ariza for Love and Mozgov.

Yes. Dwight is a goner anyways and Love is really good.

No, I don't think that trade is worth it and am not as high on Love.
