The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired center Timofey Mozgov from the Denver Nuggets, multiple sources told ESPN.com.
The Cavs, who have been in discussions with the Nuggets for Mozgov for months, are paying a steep price by sending two protected first-round picks to get the deal done. The Cavs will send a future pick they own from the Memphis Grizzlies from a 2013 trade and a first-rounder they acquired from the Oklahoma City Thunder earlier this week in a deal involving Dion Waiters.
Panic button being pushed here. Are these moves being done to try to make sure Love doesn't walk after one year? Obviously, there was supposed to be some type of verbal agreement that he would re-sign, but this makes me think the Cavs may be getting signs to the contrary.
We know Lebron isn't going anywhere. He can't after coming back.
We will see...
