Seriously, that should be on all Cavaliers post-season merchandise.
 
Last night it almost seemed like the players have jokingly embraced the "Love isn't happy...Love & LBJ are not friends" media angle. (Thompson & Love punching each other...Love & LBJ bear hug)

Body language among all of our players, as well as Coach Blatt and the coaching staff, seems to look the best it has all season.

All signs bode well for the playoffs.

Would be hilarious if he came out and just totally balled to the tune of 20/12 on 60% shooting on our way to an NBA Championship, then re-signed long term in Cleveland after the season. Giant troll face posted to Twitter.

Yeah the last game of the season, there were some definite elements there that it seems like could help turn things around. It seemed to clear the air some. He also got a number of shots to go down in the first half. It's hard to know how much of this is mental and how much is physical. On the mental side of things, it seems like last night could have only helped though.
 
I am holding out hope that my "Kevin Love is an outcast and not playing well to sandbag until the playoffs" theory is true. Would be amazing if he came out as almost our secret weapon in the post season.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if ends up being the second best player in this post season. He's going to be the guy, of the big three, that's going to get the least attention. All the defense' energy is going to be focused on 'Bron and Kyrie in the playoffs.
 
Cross outthe bow tie. Not so slick.

ILove our warm ups though.. Letterman style satin with yellow sleeves and gray body.. prestigious
 
I know that we need Love to play well in the playoffs to win a championship, but its funny to read through the last few pages, because you get the impression that he didn't play a major role in our success over the past 43 games or that he had a bad year.

He did have a down statistical year from his previous standards, but a large part of that is due to taking 6 less shots per game than last year.

He still shot .367 from 3P which is great for a PF/Stretch 4.

He also had to make the biggest role adjustment.

LeBron had to adjust to new teammates but essentially is the same straw that stirs the drink and alpha leader/player that he was in Miami and always has.

Kyrie had to adjust to new teammates and controlling the ball a little bit less, but basically still controls where the ball goes a lot of the time and took one less shot per game than last year. grew in so many other areas though. So excited about his career.

Love had to adjust to new teammates and from going to being the number one option in terms of shots and in terms of how the offense flowed to basically being the 3rd star and adjusting to a much different role on the floor than in Minny. Couple that with the injuries and it was a tough year at times for him. I'd be shocked if year two doesn't result in higher overall FG%, better efficiency, and more diversity in how he's used in the offense.

Anyways, we're lucky to have all three of these guys for a long time.
 
Jalen Rose just dug up the ultimate dumb ass meme.

"I THINK KEVIN LOVE IS A ONE AND DONE. I THINK HE AND RAJON RONDO ARE GOING TO BE LAKERS NEXT YEAR"

.....Why? I don't understand why they would make that move when the Lakers are pretty much trash this season.

I like Rondo, but players aren't clamoring to play with him for a reason.
 
If I were love id pick the 76ers or Knicks before the lakers.

Of course cavs are the best option.

I could totally see this happening.

Rondo and Love are a perfect fit, and Love seems to really need to play with a good facilitating, non-scoring PG. Why not Rondo?

As far as going to a non-contender; only Kevin Love can answer this. I'm not going to pretend to speak for him, and I don't necessarily believe the things that are said by either players or commentators during the season - they are both probably lying to some degree.

But if I were Kevin Love, of course I would consider going to L.A. I probably wouldn't in this offseason (why would I), but in the next? Sure... it makes sense, even if a lot of guys on RCF don't wanna believe it makes sense.
