re: Kevin Love is a terrible defender (even worse than I thought)

. One of Love's biggest critiques is that he is always going for the rebound instead of playing defense, but I honestly think this is a chicken or the egg situation. I think Love figured out a long time ago that he is a terrible defender, so he decided to try to contribute in some other way.

This. He's always recognized his flaws. Hence, the weight loss, turn to outside shooting, etc.

The narrative on Love has changed because of the mircoscope, but the Cavs management knew what they were getting. At best you can hide him.
