Serge Ibaka might be the best fit for what the Cavs need from their power forward position. He has stretched his range, knows how to play with 2 ball dominant players, can rebound and can block shots. He will never be Kevin Love from a talent perspective but his fit might be that much better for the Cavs.

Not real sure why the Thunder would make this deal. They already have a very talented offense, including defensively limited Enes Kanter at center, so adding Love might not do much on that end of the court. He would hurt their defense greatly. However, Love could help the Thunder keep up with the Warriors if they were willing to roll the dice.

They won’t be.
