I just love Love. Like, love Love like I wouldn't believe how much I could love Love if you told me.

I'm ashamed to say that I was one of the pro-Wiggins mouths during the entire trade debacle. I'm happy to swallow my words now. This guy is going to make such a difference for us this season.

Yep... Very early on I wanted to keep Wiggins. Then you realize historically speaking - the odds of Wiggins ever being as good as K love is now are very very low. I changed my stance about 2 weeks in.
 
I was iffy about trading Wiggins but I am 100% on the Love bandwagon. I knew how good he was and had seen him play plenty of times, but I didn't realize how complete his game is. So much more than just outlet passes as far as his passing game goes. This is gonna be a hell of a season. We deserve this.

My turn. Sweet shooting from deep, that bank shot, post game, and he passed the ball to guys in position for layups & dunks, not last second perimeter heaves. I'll say it. He looked like a bearded Larry Legend last night.

The Bird comparison is spot on. With the players on this team, Love could average 5+ assists a game. You can tell how high is b-ball IQ is on the floor. I wasn't aware of how smart of a player he is.

After every defensive rebound, he immediately looks for the streaker for easy fast break points. When the option isn't there, he defers to the PG immediately. Players are just starting to realize that and once they are ready for it, i could see us scoring 8 ppg alone from that play with the speedsters we have on the court.
 
Love this guy with what he can do. The way he's going to spread the floor will be amazing
 
If I were the NBA, I would ban his step back three. It's unguardable. I swear the dude is using GameShark to pull that shit off.
 
For sure the floor will be spaced better. Kevin is a definite 3pt threat.

Those extra two feet a defense has to guard, LeBron is going to find the differential, he's going to find the guy who has that operative sliver of time to get the shot off.

We haven't seen Mike Miller go ham yet. Imagine when Mike, Kevin, LeBron, Kyrie, and Dion are all going off from deep. Smothering.

God help the league if we start steamrolling and pick Ray Allen up at the midway point.
 
I felt like in Minny he would dominate the ball a little too much and try to draw fouls over getting a better shot. He has really worked within the offense and is truly making the correct play. Everyone seems to be. His fit is undeniable.

I was definitely one that wanted the team to grow more from within, but I guess I can live with this. The team looks awesome, and even the actions have been having success when they run the offense.

True Love is the closest thing there has been to bird, in terms of off ball play, passing, rebounding and shooting, and inside touch in a 6'9 power forward.

You don't pass on the chance of playing LeBron with the closest thing to Larry bird
 
Kevin Love continues tear as Wolves roll past Nuggets

http://espn.go.com/nba/gamecast?gameId=320325016&version=mobile&src=desktop

Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS -- Kevin Love won't let theMinnesota Timberwolves go down without a fight.

The Denver Nuggets could use a little of the same punch right now.

Love followed up his 51-point game with 30 points and 21 rebounds to lead the Timberwolves to a 117-100 victory over the Nuggets on Sunday.

"I think we used to call him kind of a poor man's Larry Bird," Denver coach George Karl said. "I think you can take 'poor man's' off that comparison now. His ability to rebound is incredible and his offensive tools and skills are growing."

George Karl found out first guys :chuckle:

Edit: I deleted the Bleacher Report's nonsense and added what i thought i post as Karl's comments. Should've read it before commenting it.
