    How about he takes on a few more Blazers (via trade, and sends us Kevin Love)?? That'd be the quickest, easiest way to acquire as many Blazers as possible.

    Three top-10 picks: Flynn, Williams, Johnson.

    All within the last five years and they have nothing to show for these picks.

    They have no GM. Well, a real one.

    Time to start the Love-to-Portland bandwagon?

    I can't stand love but pairing him with Aldridge would be star studded.

    Leave it to Kahn to do something like that.

    Completely incompatible players, unless the goal is to run up a 110 ppg average and lots of first round exits.

    If Love came it would be in a trade for Aldridge. That deal looks more attractive every year. But in the end I'm really really tired of injured key players. LMA has been our team's iron man through all the Oden/Roy woes. Love hasn't played a full season since his rookie year. I'd still rather keep LMA. But it's close.

    You gullible people. This is a Woj article. He hates the Wolves and loves to create controversy there.

    I know you'd love to have Love, but that won't happen. He's with us. When Rubio gets back healthy, he'll be one excited dude.

    ps: Kahn blows chunks. The only things he did for us is get us Rubio.

    We won't get Love. But the L*kers may...as disgusting as it is. Kahn may want the "spanish connection" even though Gasol sucks balls now....another rediculous lopsided trade to get the L*kers the best player at his position.

    Woj nails pretty much everything NBA. What Woj says, happens. It's like he has a direct line to God.

    So, enjoy your last two seasons with Love, and then set that Love free. If he comes back, it was meant to be.

    We know WoJ well around here. We were the team he loved to hate three years ago.
    Love wont be traded this year but much like us and LA if we suck next year theres a high chance of a trade request.

    Funny how NBB dismisses Love's direct quotes. He's clearly not happy there. Rubio or not.

    It's not funny at all - it's what all the Minne fans do. When Love was bitching this summer about Minne, they dismissed his direct quotes then. During the whole Batum shenanigans, they dismissed most of those direct quotes, too. Is it denial? Are they just oblivious? What??

    I think it's fear.

    Btw, Love wants players who can play both ends. It's clear what he wants. And I think he knows the Playoffs, hypothetically speaking, are going to be a nightmare for their second best player as Rubio can't score from three -- midrange -- at the hoop. The specialized Playoff defenses will target that. His three-point shot and scoring at the rim are equally bad.

    maybe if rubio steps up his game a whole lot and shoots .400 they have a chance to make it to the playoffs

    but love is as good as gone, the quotes from him speak volumes...they would be smart to deal him now

    Love's ego is too small for a market like Minnesota

    He needs a bigger media to relay his bitching and moaning 24/7.

    I don't get why anyone is surprised - he spent a chunk of the summer bitching.

    As for your Rubio comment.... he has to be able to get on the floor to step up his game and shoot 40%.
