If the guy is 100 percent healthy, he is a fantastic match to pair with Kemba due to the spacing and his catch and shoot prowess. I just seriously question if he still has it. All I've seen is a steady decline the past few years.

better than trading for john wall lmao
i'm not against it tbh... IF we're keeping kemba (which basically means we're committed to peaking at being a second round team unless other things happen and a lot of guys improve drastically)

I'm down. I don't expect Love to ever regain his Temberwolves form, but that's fine.

He is expected back fairly soon, so the Hornets might be able to see what Love can do before making a trade.

Yeah, I'm not actually that into the idea at all because the floor for how bad Love's contract could end up being is even lower than Batums, but I'm so sick of Batum that I wouldn't even be that mad if we traded for him.
It has to be a reasonable deal. Love's contract is garbage, so we should have to give up a bunch of value when we are actually getting them out of the final two years of Love's deal with a Batum/Love swap.

I've given up on figuring out whether I want KLove. I was a huge fan for a long time, but dude's not getting any younger and that contract is crazy.

Batum, Biyombo, Frank, top 8 protected 1st
For
Love, Tristan Thompson, Rodney Hood
This draft doesn't look to be great anyway, so just go for it

Love is a guy that comes with his downfalls. He can get picked on when in a 7 game series and has trouble sometimes guarding elite players. However that doesn’t make him sorry.
He is still a great rebounder, still can space the floor, and still give you offense from the post. He might be a great running mate for Kemba and I don’t think he will cost an arm and a leg in assets either.

Doubt they trade those three to us for basically a late lotto pick at best.

I swear the last time I watched Love play he looked like he'd borrowed his grandmother's pantyhose. people moan that Batum's contract is an albatross wtf we gonna do with the 30 yr old injury prone shadow of his former self Love's 5 yr monstrosity?
