Buyout Market 2023: Nerlens 10-day to Nets | Dragic to MIL

Respectfully, it doesn't really say that they are the only team with interest. The article offers no comment on the level of interest of other teams. It just focuses on why MIA is likely to be a team who wants him, and says they are "expected to emerge as a suitor..." for Love if/when he is available. I only mention this for the benefit of those unable to read it.

Very true. My bad for misrepresenting it. Didn't intend to.

Mavs interest? The fact that he's a PF who can make 3s and rebound certainly could appeal to Dallas in some ways (he's a really plus rebounder). However, his inability to play defense is problematic, especially when the Mavs badly need help on that end of the floor.

I'm largely in line with your thinking, although I look and wonder about the fact that Love has already won a ring with Irving and the potential established chemistry they share. 

Love can also still score in bunches and has been praised about how good of a locker room guy he is. I can see the appeal. 

I just don't know who to waive. I still want to see Morris before writing him off as he theoretically fills a position of need. Theo Pinson has ingrained himself on this team (which is a testament to how it doesn't matter what you know but who you know). Frank is bad, but he can play defense. 

At this point since Kidd has done everything in his power to cast off Wood, would they just waive him and sign Love? At least Love will be happy to play 15 mins a game at the end of every quarter.
