Be Love"D" 

Post#1 » by prefuse73 » Sat Apr 4, 2009 4:04 pm

I didn't get a chance to watch the game last night but, I see Love was not much of a factor on offense, however, I also noticed that neither Boozer or Okur (or Milsap for that matter) did much either. Was this a factor of Love displaying some hardcore D?

Boozer sucks and it didnt seem like Okur played much.

Love is doing good with man-man defense. Right now the concerns are his help defense. protecting the paint etc. But man-man he has been fine this year. look at individual match-up with Duncan as an example.

Love did a decent job on Okur, but his minutes were greatly reduced because he was sick. Shelden was banging effectively in his place, especially in the 3rd quarter. Boozer was indeed awful, but Millsap seemed to be playing OK. Utah got way ahead due to Deron, AK47 & Korver so they fell into a bit too much jump-shooting, which certainly helped.

okay..so it wasnt just a shut down performance from Love...but still, like rev said, the kid can at least man up.
