I don't get why so many of these Love trade ideas have Tristan in the deal too, teams aren't clamoring for two power forwards.

uh russell westbrook told a reporter to his face he doesn't like him and the video of it is super weird

love hasn't stepped onto the floor so probably more defense is happening than usual

do you understand what it means to compare two different things
― lag∞n, Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:14 (nine years ago) link
team quality and win record? yes. but I think saying that team was legit "good" and just happened to be unlucky w kevin love on it is a stretch. they were certainly better defensively than the cavs due to a healthy rubio, sure.
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:19 (nine years ago) link

see matt was just comparing the wolves to the cavs but you are thinking he was comparing them to some sort of league wide standard of quality which he was not
― lag∞n, Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:25 (nine years ago) link
and fwiw last year wolves were prob better than this years cavs tho in the same range of mediocrity
win% cavs 512 wolves 488
point differential cavs 0 wolves +2.7
― lag∞n, Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:29 (nine years ago) link
anyway assessing a single player by the results of their teams is a pretty poor way to go about it since basketball is actually a team sport
― lag∞n, Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:30 (nine years ago) link
when I first said "kevin love was overrated when he can't be the primary scorer" or whatever I was not doing so, but this went into a rabbithole.
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:37 (nine years ago) link
in some ways these cavs are an opposite-day wolves - multiple players score well and the team defends horribly as opposed to having only one dude who scores well and a number of talented defenders
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:40 (nine years ago) link
i think youre right to an extent in that loves best skill is creating a high volume of high efficiency shots, so being on a team with two other high volume shooters is not the best use for him, but also the cavs are just a mess all around
― lag∞n, Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:41 (nine years ago) link
like its no surprise that their two more dribbly scorers are taking all the shots while they guy who needs plays run for him is standing around depressed in the corner
― lag∞n, Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:48 (nine years ago) link
to be completely fair as well, were they in the east the wolves woulda been an 8 seed last year, putting them against the pacers who were not great defensively in the playoffs, and prob could've at least taken that shit to 7 games
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Saturday, 17 January 2015 13:48 (nine years ago) link
by point differential the wolves wouldve been the 4 seed in the east! and thats not even taking into account the easier sched
