Wow, I am more excited to get Kevin Love now and I hope this happens. All that talk about Larry Bird and appreciating our history, as well as planning on talking to Bill Walton, those are the kind of players you want to have. Those who appreciate your team's history and are willing to add to it.

Hopefully this truly happens.

I wonder if Schwartz/Love are making a power move of some kind and tying to force Minny's hand. This whole situation seems too good to be true

My expectation of this happening is still quite flacid. I don't think I will let it get more erect until I hear official confirmation.

I hope I can contain myself as well but I already got myself pumped and real excited :lol:
It would definitely be a huge disappointment if he does not come here.

I think this is a good attitude to have. Many of us EDIT a bit too much on lottery night and we all saw how that worked out.

Lets keep it PG and remember the NSA is reading. sully

Just read the General board thread. It went from "just a coincidence" to "lol why would Love go to Boston of all places." To "whatever. They are still just a 6 seed with him"..what a mess of a thread LOL

I was thinking about how I'd probably get sad if he popped up in another random city next weekend, but I can't even invent a realistic trade destination scenario of a possible threat. He just gonna go to Cleveland and spend all weekend at the Rock and Roll Hall of fame? lol

Has anyone ever seen anything like this? What does this colorful public display mean?

It's like a free agent visitation, except Minnesota's got him signed and they get to choose where to trade him. Is this Love and his agent trying to steer the direction of the trade?

Could explain Flip coming out with his comments today.

They don't want his value to tank if everyone knows he wants to go to Boston and we stiffen up on negotiations.

Wow!.... There actually might be something to this?

Maybe Kevin Love wants more than just money?

If so, then I'm on the Love bandwagon for sure! :)

Welcome Kevin Love!

Seems like Love and his agent are poisoning the well in Minnesota, making it very unappealing for the Wolves to bring him back. By going so public with this, he forces Minnesota to trade him by draft time.

What are the chances that Love is just a cruel individual and is trolling Celtic Nation LOL

This is like a less douchey version of what Melo did to the Nuggets.

Then we will consider him an enemy of the region for rejecting us and hate him as thus.

Would be the most ultimate troll of the 21st century if so. Haha
