People acting like Love sucks now smdh



I don't think Love sucks, just saying he makes no sense for us.

1) He's an expiring and I think would be incredibly unlikely to sign here. He would go to LA/Big Market.

2) If he did re-sign here, we are talking Max extension.

3) The fit next to Davis is questionable at best to me, most notably on the defensive end. Love is a very poor defender, and frankly, Davis isn't the best man on man defender yet either.

4) You would have like 40 million tied up in two PFs.

Don't know about all that. Just doesn't make sense for us.

Yeah that trade makes no sense whatsoever for this team. Granted I like both Asik and Ryno.

That being said could we facilitate a third team involved and take on another stretch 4 (Ilyasova anyone)? Sure

I was just thinking let Love and Thompson run up at the end of the season. If they work, look at bringing them back. What we have isnt getting it done.


It looks like AD, Reke, Jrue, and Gordon are going to be the framework of this team? Now you have all that free money to go out and get guys who best fit next to these guys.

You can maybe go after a Deandre Jordan or Marc Gasol. Try and throw money at Jimmy Butler or a Draymond Green or Kwahi Leonard or KJ McDaniels. I dont even know the money details or what we will have to spend, but there are some sexy names available who would look good on our team
