I mean, I live in Hollywood. Isn't that enticement enough?
Btw, why did you choose to live in Hollywood? I went to go look at some apartments, and a man dressed in a very visibly dirty Spider-Man costume and two women with painted breasts were getting on the bus in front of the building.... I was like, 'umm...wtf?'
I'm an entertainment journalist, so Hollywood is the place to be. Fortunately, I don't live on Hollywood Boulevard, so I'm spared the sight of costumed freaks shaking down tourists in front of my home. My neighborhood is pretty chill.
Looking for an apartment in a more -- happening -- part of town... My neighborhood is a bit too chill. Thought of moving to DTLA, but not sure.
REPORT: KEVIN LOVE EXPECTED TO LEAVE CAVALIERS IN FREE AGENCY
Here’s an excerpt from ‘The Lowe Post‘ podcast, as transcribed by Real GM:
BRIAN WINDHORST: EVERY EXECUTIVE I TALK TO, EVERY AGENT I TALK TO, EVERY QUASI INSIDER, EVERY GIRLFRIEND’S COUSIN’S SISTER’S BOYFRIEND ALL SAYS THIS GUY IS OUT OF THERE.
ZACH LOWE: I HEAR THE SAME THING FROM EVERYBODY. FROM EVERYONE THAT IS TWO OR THREE OR FOUR STEPS REMOVED. I DON’T QUITE BELIEVE ALL OF THAT.
WINDHORST: I AGREE.
LOWE: PART OF WHAT’S GOING ON THERE IS THE LAKERS’ BOOGEYMAN. THEY DON’T JUST SAY HE’S OUT OF THERE, THEY SAY ‘HE’S GOING TO THE LAKERS.’ THAT HAS MUCH TO DO WITH THE FEAR PEOPLE HAVE OF THE LAKERS AS IT DOES WITH KEVIN LOVE.
WINDHORST: I CAN’T GET A READ ON KEVIN. HIS PERSONALITY IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN MANY PLAYERS I’VE COVERED. HE HAS AT EVERY TURN EVEN GONE OUT OF HIS WAY TO MAKE STATEMENTS ABOUT HOW HE INTENDS TO REMAIN IN CLEVELAND.

It is not even the fact that Kobe is a shell of his former self. It is the fact that the Lakers are devoid of talent from top to bottom. Sure they have a pick and a prospect in Randle but that is hardly enticing to a player in his prime like Love. He would arguably be in a worse situation than when he was in Minnesota. The only possible reason he would join the Lakers is if doesn't care about care about basketball or winning and isn't comfortable living anywhere outside of his hometown LA.

Well, I want multiple rings and one of the greatest teams of all time, so I definitely do.If we win a ring, I don't give a fuck what Kevin Love does..

I just have to rant. Aaron Goldhammer is a hack. An absolute hack.
I made the mistake of listening to him for 5 min. He thinks the Cavs won't resign Love and will use the money elsewhere. That is impossible. We are over the cap. And if anything, we would max him and trade him later (won't happen, but more realistic than his idiocy).
The guy is the worst. Actually, no. He is par for the course for KNR. They are morons, every last one of them.
