He has shown better movement when he drives to the basket and has shown an ability to put the ball on the floor and some of that has to do with his new body.
He's not as dominant a rebounder now with the slimmer body. Yes, he's out on the perimeter a lot so he can't grab dem ORebs as he did before, but he's getting out positioned and muscled more often now: he used to be an absolute terror a MENACE on the boards with his energy rebounding.
One difference is that muscle is a useful tissue. Fat isn't. Sure, muscle slows down some guys, but it can actually also increase explosion if done right. The extra weight could be offset by the additional propulsion gained from the extra muscle. At any rate, a 255-lb, muscular Kevin Love would certainly be a better player than a 255-lb, fluffy Kevin Love.
