I can understand being frustrated about some of Kahn's moves/blown draft picks but at least we had a hellova off-season and are fighting for the playoffs without Rubio. Let everyone get back and have some time to gel for god sakes.
Love should keep his comments to himself and focus on improving on D and getting his jumpshot back. Franchise player should work to improve his own game (even on 21/14) and help carry the team on his back. Quit crying about how bad you have it. You just got payed the max and we went out and got some players to help. Stop being such a diva and help your team get some victories before Rubio shows you how it's done.
This. I think the guy has a legitimate gripe, but keep it to yourself, man. Look at Larry Fitzgerald. Probably the most talented athlete in any sport who's stuck in a crappy situation (a situation 10x more hopeless than the Wolves), yet does he bitch about it? No, he keeps it to himself, or at least within the orginization, because he's the leader and there are a lot of young guys at that team looking to him to see how he handles himself. You want to be a star Love? A leader? Then grow up and start acting like it.
Word.
We'll never know the details, but I think Love will probably learn something about the power his words have by the way the team chemistry changes in the locker room today. Hopefully he will learn something about his responsibilities from it.
