Holy crap did someone really open their face and say Lee is on par with Love?

I've never understood this argument. Dude gets you 26/13/4 on 46%, 37%, 82% shooting and he's "just a stat stuffer." Since when is the ability to stretch the floor and rebound at such a high level devalued? Is it just because they haven't made the playoffs in the stacked West? He's not Lebron or Durant, but 26/13/4 isn't some shite you accumulate without having the talent to back it up. There's only a handful of guys that can put up those stats in the entire league

We have a very different definition of stupid. The equivalent of this is if the Clippers said no to CP3 deal because Eric Gordon was too valuable.

Klay Thompson is much much much better than Gordon.

Now yes, but at the time Eric Gordon was considered a very good young up and coming player.

I'm not getting the comparison
Klay Thompson >>>>> Eric Gordon
CP3 >>>> Kevin Love
Chris Paul is without a shadow of a doubt the best PG in the NBA. Can you say the same thing about Kevin Love and PF's?

Love ON: 111.6 ORTG/106.0 DRTG
Love OFF: 101.1 ORTG/106.5 DRTG
So the TWolves go from top 3 offense in the league to bottom 3 when he goes to the bench.
Definitely Love's fault they can't make it to the playoffs.

It's so weird to me that the same people on this board who relentlessly defend individual statistics in the face of team accomplishments throw that reasoning completely out the fricking window when discussing Kevin Love.
Posted on 6/23/14 at 2:05 am to RTR America
Gordon averaged 22 points, four assists, and three rebounds the year before he got traded. This season Thompson averaged 18 points, 2 assists, and 3 rebounds. So I'm going to have to disagree on Thompson >>>>> Gordon.
And on Paul and Love, they are both superstars and our both among top players at their position. A Eric Gordon or Thompson should not be the player that stops you trading for them.

On a terrible Clippers team. The guy shot the ball 17 times a game.

One has never played a postseason game in his career and struggles defensively.

When did Klay Thompson become the only piece in this deal?

Shot a higher percentage than Thomspon and was more efficient.

Would Love even re-sign with the Warriors?

I'd imagine he would. Hasn't been stated yet but there wouldn't be many other better options he could go to

He wouldn't "re-sign". The trade is dead in the water if he doesn't agree to a long-term deal beforehand.

yeah NBA trades aren't like NFL trades, where you can have a "hershel walker" like deal and results (even then, in the NFL hitting all those home runs is rare as frick)
when was the last time the pieces given for a superstar ended up being close to an argument for the piece given up? gasol-gasol maybe, but that took years and was routinely used an example of the NBA rigging itself to aide the lakeshow
