Well I guess this is the team that blew pick 1 on Anthony Bennett

I agree, but I think that second lottery pick is what analysts are thinking is the sweetener they like. Although I would think Cleveland, like the Jazz have an overabundance of youth on the team and should find some players with some experience and skill.
 
The fact that a lot of fans seem to prefer Orlando`s offer to our, just shows that we have become an irrelevant franchise that nobody watches. Burks produces almost excactly at Afflalo`s level, is much younger, on a rookie deal and is an RFA next summer. The 4 is obviously better than the 5, but in this range you`re really shooting dice and does not get anyone who can contribute right away. Favors is miles better than #14.

All signs points to Cleveland wanting to win now. Our deal puts them in a much better position to do that. It really is that simple.
 
Again, Cleveland is just posturing in the media. Philly's offer of 3, 10 and Thad is better than Orlando's 4, 12 and Afflalo, assuming that Philly went ahead and offered that. They may have Thad Young in part of another potential deal. In any case, I doubt Lebron is going back to Cleveland. He wants a legit Big 3, and Cleveland isn't going to attract a Wade, Carmello, Dwight, CP3 or whomever Lebron wants to play with.
 
I want to trade just about anything for wiggins.

However, what we are offering is a damn good deal (and overpaying imo, which i would still do) so if they are going to be little bitches about things then **** em.

Take gordon at 5 and watch him turn into scottie pippen, keep burks and watch him turn into wade, favors becomes tyson chandler, kanter devolops a 3 point shot and becomes kevin love, burke becomes the assist leader and we win not one, not two, not three....... championships.

Meanwhile whoever cleveland picks is a bust and thier franchise continues to be a laughing stock.

Your argument is that no other NBA franchise knows the value of Burks in comparison to Afflalo? If that's the crutch you need then you're way overvaluing your favorite player.
