Was just watching some highlights of "Fat" Love in Minny and the guy had a non-stop motor and was so damn irritating on the offensive boards as he used his big ass to move people around and always seemed to know where the ball was going. He's awaynfrom the basket in most cases now, but you don't see that motor or energy he had when he was "Fat" Love. I'm fairly certain losing all that weight has negatively impacted him. I wonder if he has issues with his knees which gave him the impetus to lose so much weight even after he had lost weight last year.
That is the rumor isn't it? I thought he had an ideal playing weight last year. He had clearly trimmed down but he wasn't emaciated like he is now. He can stand to gain about 15 lbs. Maybe his plan is to add muscle this offseason now that his body fat percentage is more than acceptable.
There was a ESPN Sports Science episode where the was able to box out a sumo wrestler using (mostly) leverage as well as his mass. I think he has gone over the tipping point of mass to pull that off anymore.
His new svelte look may help with the ladies and with GQ, but it may not add to his game.
