Which 2 would you keep in a fantasy keeper league out of the 4 following players:
PF/C Kevin Love
PF/C Nene
SF/PF Jeff Green
PG/SG Nate Robinson
I'm leaning towards a combo of Love/Green, but not sure.
Which 2?

Re: Which 2?
Standard 9 cats? I'd say Green/Nene
I eliminated Nate Rob because IMO he benefitted a lot from D'Antoni's system and with his impending free agency,it is yet to be determined where he will play next season and beyond hence the spike in his stats could go down in another team.
Nene is no brainer IMO.(28th ranked player this season).Since he is the main men in the paint for Denver in the foreseeable future ,I dont see why he wouldnt perform on a similar level.
I'm torn between Green and Love but I think the lack of blocks from Love(and he doesnt have three pointers to fall back on like other non shot blocking centers alas Bargnani/Memo thus it limits his fantasy upside significantly on a standard 9 cat setting) plus the presence of Al Jefferson as the main guy in the middle makes me go with Green. I expect Love to have Zach Randolph like impact on fantasy land with good to great points,great rebounds,solid percentages and minimal contribution in other categories(especially in defensive stats)
Green on the other hand,has a more diverse skill set and production.17/18 points along with 6/7 rebounds(which is what he produced this year) will be accompanied with decent peripheral stats(1+ steals and 3's;decent percentages plus minor contribution in assists/blocks).
Hence I'd go with Nene and Green

Re: Which 2?
Great analysis!
Definitely Green for me, the other is trickier. I'd be very tempted to keep Nate, his Free Agency being the ultimate issue. Great option if he does stay in NY, seems like he was made for that system.
I never was a big fan of Nene, can`t deny however that he's had a great year. Historically had injury problems, so who knows if this will catch up next year.
Love would be great, thing is there are tons of other Power Fowards that could do as good or better.
