Love is gone to LA.

Thanks LeBron. The Cavs should have kept Wiggins.

Eh...Kevin Love will extend with the Cavs. I bet Lebron will just have Blatt fired this off-season.

Yeah, it would definitely be hilarious if he did. Something Lebron would deserve.

This is a non story. Love was playing in 2nd night of a back to back after hurting his hand earlier in the week against Minnesota. He'll be fine.

Yeah, in no time Love will be healthy and and back out there giving up layups to scrubs and getting posterized..

You should actually consider it a story, that your coach is smart enough to realize that even a supposed 'superstar' should be benched if he's hurting the team when he's on the floor. Good on Blatt, didn't think he had it in him.

They gave up the number1 overall for Love. They will do anything it takes to build around the big 3 with pieces that compliment them so that situati9ns like this dont happen in coming years. May take awhile.

It doesn't get better for Love in LA that is for sure. Kobe is in serious decline already and the Lakers can even lose their number 1 pick to Phoenix if it is lower than #5. I see him staying where he is. Unless he gets traded first of course. No scenario where he just is allowed to walk after Wiggins is gone even if he wanted to. They will get his verbal commitment. If not, then.......

Love can be Boozered in more ways. The benching in the 4th is great and all, but if he wants to be a real Boozer, he will give a handshake deal to the Cavs then bolt elsewhere.

Now that would be great.

I can't wait for him to waive off Bron during the playoffs and brick a shot against off and watch the whole team fall apart.

That's why I really love the professionals that are around Rose. It is why a team like the Spurs are long lasting. Don't get me wrong, talent is definitely important but keeping people away who don't understand what the goal is and their respective roles are gets more important to me by the day.

I still want Dwight Howard though

Eh, I think Dion is just at the uber level of knucklehead. He just needs to get paid and get his. That's a rare group. I wouldn't be surprised if they traded him.
