I want to preface this by saying how much I admire Eric Gordon. The way he's overcome big injuries.. multiple times, and in the process of that/playing here has grown into..."the consummate pro" w/All Star talent...he's a major piece for us. That said, when it comes to KLove, I give up EG...not easily...but, I do. The same cannot automatically be said for CC. In fact, I'm wanting to play Kevin with/without Clint @4/5. If push came to shove.....
Cavs want young players and picks. I select no. I will trade Capela, Shumpert, 4 NGs, and 2 future Firsts for Blake Griffin and Thon Maker. I don't want Kevin Love. Starters: Griffin (current all-star) Maker Tucker Harden WB Gordon is a sixth man.
absolutely not Can this Kevin Love talk just die already? Capela was trash against GS, but let’s not act like he isn’t a valuable player for us against pretty much every other team. Harden to Capela was the most assisted play in the league this past season. That lob threat is huge, ask Utah, Jokic, and the many other teams that got killed with it time and time again.
people must think he’s still a star dude has played in 60, 59, and 22 games the past 3 seasons, and his defense is garbage...oh, and his contract runs until 2023...hell nah, I’m good
If Love has physically recovered and is bought out, he is a welcome addition more so than an Amar'e Stoudamire or whatever antiquated style 4/5 will ever be.. Problem is that huge on going contract...
I'd be ok with Love only in one specific scenario at this point, the one where Gordon has no interest in extending his contract here and we can't move him (and pick/s) for a player like Covington etc. Every other scenario for me is a no. If we can just extend Gordon i'd take him over Love at this point.
if I have to stay under the tax, no. If I can go over the tax, sure because then I can S&T shumpert for a replacement center.
My friend....and you are my friend....you, uh, need to let this go. We don’t even know what’s left of the KLove from a couple, few seasons ago.
show me the stats that say love is a terrible defender. it may not be great playing the 5, but in his natural position he is not a bad defender. you should all be doing backflips if we could land kevin love. again, it amazes me how picky you guys are about the roster as if we have all these better options. the PF position is a huge weak spot for us right now. he hits the glass, he hits 3s, he's 6'10, he has a post game, he can play stretch 5 in spurts, he has played with russ in college, he is ok with being the third star and taking a back seat, and he has championship experience. if that doesnt check all the boxes idk what does. i probably would choose to give up EGO over clint since we seem to have enough talent in the guard position if it means we can add balance by improving the front court. imagine love in the corner instead of tuck, and being able to bring him in off the bench. now THAT would be great.
I think that’s part of the reason for burner accounts. Hell, I have a lot of posts. But holic and his burners? Up to, what, 626,342 posts now?
