At long last, Kevin Love is officially a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and LeBron James had a message for him on Twitter:
Welcome to the Land @kevinlove!

Love wouldn't be in Cleveland without James, and the two reportedly talked about the possibility of joining forces leading up to the deal being completed. They immediately form the best frontcourt duo in the league, and they have good memories of playing together for Team USA. Now they'll play on this team:
Mike Miller will also reunite with Love in Cleveland. Miller spent the 2008-2009 season alongside a rookie Love, and he sounds excited about the possibilities next season:
I can't wait to get back on the court with my former teammate @kevinlove and #letitfly

None of the players included in the deal have publicly said anything about it yet -- though Andrew Wiggins did acknowledge it in the bio of his Twitter and Instagram pages -- save for new Wolves forward Thaddeus Young. After seven seasons in Philadelphia, he is moving on:
Thank you Sixers & Philly fans for 7 wonderful years. My family & I will always hold you all close to our hearts #sixernation #sixerstrong
