Good summary/analysis of Love so far.
Thriving on mediocrity since '89.

good write up. Love projects as a dominate role player.

Agree.

If they are commited to starting Jefferson and Love, it would seem to make sense to get an atlethic SF that can be a weak side shotblocker on defense and an above average offensive threat.

What?

Is that like an underachieving First Team All-NBA'er?

I'm just pulling your leg but a "dominant role player" is an oxymoron to me.

It was a term used for Pippen a lot. Even KG had it when he was younger (*with Googs/starbury) usually it means someone who has a crazy effect on an aspect of the game without being an offensive star. In love's case the passing and rebounding are the natural things he strives at.
