    Dante was a monster tonight. He won us this game with his unrelenting hustle.

    Definitely an all-star performance from K-Lo

    4 straight years of sweeping these Wolves. 16 straight games. That is nuts.

    I gotta say Zags, I've remained pretty neutral in the whole "K-Love is a great player" debate, but after watching him 3 times against the Blazers and another 3 times besides for the helluvit, I don't get the hype.

    We need a .gif of this STAT! That was the best part of the game! Way to cap it all off. I do believe Lund talked about how LA should throw the ball in Loves face today on his show, to show how pissed he is, haha.

    Wait until he gets some legitimate options around him. He has a garbage team around him and I've never claimed he was a go-to man scoring wise. Tonight, might have been his worst game of the year.

    Just found it funny. I did like how the T-Wolves were force-feeding your mancrush the ball late in the game to get him another worthless double-double. ;)

    Force feeding him? He needed the rebound last to get the double-double.

    Hmmmmm ... maybe, but I don't think that's actually it. He lacks something in the eye-ball test (at least as far as calling him an "all-star" goes).

    Put him on OKC with Durant and Westbrook, or on Denver with Melo and Billups. He's not the type to carry a team, but a dynamic 2nd option.

    we could also potentially be ahead of 5th place NO in the loss column at the break (6th only by tiebreak, 1/2 game from 5th)

    Well technically that would make him the third option ... And I agree that's probably where he would be best suited (in other words, not really an all-star caliber player, despite his astronomical PER and obscene rebound rate).

    If/when he gets some better players around him, he won't be the "All-Star" player on that team. This is why players putting up garbage-time stats on garbage teams should not be All-Stars. Stern doesn't understand this; the coaches do, though.

    Man, if Love got some serious talent around him, he might average 50 points and 25 boards!1!11!

    Because he was 0/7 and had 0 points 7 rebounds.
