According to Jordan Webb of HNGN.com (http://www.hngn.com/articles/43993/20140929/cleveland-cavaliers-rumors-roy-hibbert-trade-pacers-dion-waiters-haywood.htm) and Tyler Spence of Sports Talk (http://www.hngn.com/articles/43993/20140929/cleveland-cavaliers-rumors-roy-hibbert-trade-pacers-dion-waiters-haywood.htm), the Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers have engaged in trade talks. At the heart of the rumored deal is a swap of embattled center Roy Hibbert (http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/h/hibbero01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-hoopshabit.com) for shooting guard Dion Waiters.Spence provided the details below:
“Following the Keith Bogans (http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/boganke01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-hoopshabit.com) trade, the Cavaliers contacted the Pacers to inquire about Roy Hibbert. The Pacers would want Dion Waiters in return, however, the players that would be involved are not fully known,” Spence told HNGN Sports in an email Monday morning. “Latest from a source was that Waiters, Haywood, and a 1st had been offered, however, they would need to add players or other teams to make salaries work. Cavs may be reluctant to give up Dion as well, so this deal is still far from imminent, but does have a realistic shot at happening.”

Hibbert and Lebron would be a terrible fit together, tbh..
both of these teams are just desperate. i told everyone that love and lebron together was a terrible idea. lebron is shooting like 40% from the field and love 36% last i checked.

:lol Bron and Love compliment each other just fine. Its ball-dominant guards like Irving and Waiters that don't go with him. The Waiters issue can be solved by making him a 6th man, but idk about Irving. Especially if he doesn't show the same willingness to step out of the way like Wade did.

Hibbert would be a defensive anchor for them cavs which would immediately upgrade their defense to a whole new level tbh. He might not be the ideal companion for Lebron but it doesn't matter when the Kang already has Love and Irving imho. If they could get this deal done, NBA = fucked.
Sock puppet marketing is amusing but not interesting.

Why would Indy willfully stack the Cavs by giving them Hibbert? The Cavs would take the East for 4-5 straight years. He's the same kind of fit for the Cavs as PAu was for the Lakers when Stern brought Pau to LA for Kwame Brown.
The Cavs are a horrible efensive team with no rim protector. Hibbert is a rim protector and space eater. So again, they would give the Cavs exactly what they need in exchange for another knucklehead player (a la Lance Stephenson) like Dion Waiters? I don't think so.

No one believed the superfags would join together in Miami yet they DID it in 2010. Indy is fucked anyway without George who's probably never gonna come back being the player he was, so if the Cavs attach some 1st rounders to spice up the offer it wouldn't be a bad choice for Pacers to accept it imho.
:lol Bron and Love compliment each other just fine. Its ball-dominant guards like Irving and Waiters that don't go with him. The Waiters issue can be solved by making him a 6th man, but idk about Irving. Especially if he doesn't show the same willingness to step out of the way like Wade did.
yeah those guards taking more shots away from those guys really affects the percentages on the shots that Lebron/love actually do get to take. I'm sure if it weren't for irving then love would be shooting 50% like a big man is supposed to instead of the 36% he is actually shooting in reality :lol
Too many ball dominant players on one team with different playing styles. Lebron and irving like to run and shoot the ball. Love also likes to shoot the ball but doesn't like to run. It's a disaster.
NBA = fucked
Hibbert, Love and Varejao?
If they can be like the spurs and bench irving, Cavs will be really good.
Lebron can play his miami heat style, with Mike miller, shawn marion and love at the 3pt line, and hibbert as the defensive center.
Irving can iso all he wants or pnr whole day with varejao against bench scrubs.
Championship team tbh.
The starters would be a balance of offense and defense, and the bench would be good in offense because no bench scrub can defend irving.

Cleveland is not playing well...but if they start to...they are the best team, no doubt.
This is their first season together, and they didnt just add 1 player, theres even a coaching issue.
No doubt they will get better, when? Maybe next season...BUT maybe they peak at in April...who knows.

I said the same when they signed Shaq. a slow moving big is the worse fit for Lebron. It will push him to shoot more instead of driving or bullying niccas on the block. Spo was right to build a team of spacers around James.

Yep..Lebron can't play with a big that clogs the middle, especially a slow-footed, immobile big like Hibbert..

They need to trade Waiters for a wing defender for sure if they can. Waiters has talent and could be good, but mentally I don't feel like I would gamble on him coming around.
If they could land Tony Allen or something like that...

That would help Ariza would have been perfect heck even Wiggins ...

Ya, Ariza would be perfect, but no chance. Wiggins would be very good too it looks like. MEM actually needs people that can score so thought that might be something with very little thought that might work.

I'm not a Shump fan, but it would probably be ok. Although if Shump is as good as they can get, Waiters talent is probably worth the risk for CLE then.

If the Cavs can somehow get a way to get Calderon on that trade I think it's worth the gamble. Hard to see it with the Spaniard contract though.
