Get it? Get it?! It's funny because Kevin Love as an MVP candidate used to not be that ridiculous. You know, until he sacrificed his career to join LeBron James in Cleveland and potentially put them over the top as a championship contender. And then player/coach LeBron drastically reduced his statistics and superstar status by turning him into a glorified version of Matt Bonner. So hilarious! Kevin, why aren't you laughing?
There aren't many things I need from this NBA postseason. Selfishly, I need a long playoff run from the Clippers so I can make it to some more games. Even more so than that I need a mid-game fist fight between LeBron James and Kevin Love. It's got to be coming right? I think Love would receive a standing ovation for it in every city other than Cleveland. As a perennial 20 point-10 rebound player there can only be so much you can take when your teammate, who begged you to come play with him, keeps making jokes at your expense. Have we forgotten that Kevin Love was one of the biggest names in basketball before this year? Now he's being made sport of and being left out of team pictures like he is the 12th man off the bench. You could almost play this off as friendly locker room ribbing if James and Love haven't been one wrong look away from turning their home locker room into the scene of a domestic dispute. I don't think anyone has been more disappointed to be playing for a two seed in the history of sports. I think if Love had the choice he would opt out of his contract before the playoffs even started. Time to make a stand Kevin. Time to decide if your pride or your dignity have any value to you at all. Both are being increasingly conceded by the day.
