I get the excitement around Love, but people need to use some discretion. It can hedge over into bothersome/creepy. At the end of the day, he's trying to enjoy the Sox game.

The first few photos of Kevin Love in Boston showed him happy and with a big smile. The last photo shows that he might be getting a tad annoyed at this point :lol:

Snapchats? Lol, oh no, Boston you are scaring me now. Do a "Come to Boston" chant or something...don't take a snapchat with him hahah

All I know is...I know exactly who to blame now if Love doesn't want to come here. :lol:

Yeah, that last one is hilarious. If a facial expression could ever say more clearly "I don't know you and you are invading my personal space." :lol:

Dude's from LA. Other than TMZ and the paparazzi chasing movie stars around, people tend to leave celebrities alone a bit more.

That guy blatantly walked up to Kevin at lunch, shoved a phone in front of his face and said "Hey Kevin, let me get a pic" while already taking it.

If we don't land Love at this point, I'm putting the blame squarely on that creepy Flea-looking MFer.

Someone needs to clothesline guys like this if they see them approaching Love today.

"Fackin dood, Laykahs suuuuck!"


Yeah I couldn't imagine having creepy dudes running up to me begging for a picture. It sounds weird to us..But I'm sure most big time athletes are use to it to an extent. When I was working on Beacon Hill I would eat lunch at the Prudential a couple times a week and see guys from other teams all the time when they were in town. I never really thought much of it except when I saw the entire Memphis team at California Pizza Kitchen. I went over to shake Tony Allen's hand and tell OJ Mayo that he would look good in green. Both were happy to take a picture and talk for a bit. The other guys looked like they wanted nothing to do with me. It's all about how you approach it...I'm sure having people stick a phone in your face gets old...But he saw how this town showed their appreciation for pierce and KG. He might like the idea of having a loyal fan base and not having to live in the arctic circle.

I thought that was Johnny Damon in the picture for more than a second.

I just browsed through the wolves forum and saw that Flip took a jab at us. He said that we still think that we got Tim Duncan. :nonono:

I will say this: Cleveland pretty much sucks. Love would be making that face all the time there.

Hearing rondo and love talked 11 days ago regarding this trip, on the phone, and that rondo and him have maintained regular correspondence for the past 27 days.

Hmm. Interesting. Can't that be considered tampering and would trade Rondo for Westbrook ? ,

No. Players can talk. The NBA can't stop that. It's how Miami got Lebron and Bosh. Haha, I'm not sure I understand your point about Rondo for Westbrook? If it's true that Rondo is recruiting Love, I'd say Rondo is here for the long haul and Ainge has told him that.

This is where arguments over Rondo's midrange jumpshot fg% become meaningless and his actual(total) value is never really known.
