    Statistically, Love is definitely better. His numbers are insane.

    25 ppg, 13.6 boards, 4 assists, 27 PER...

    It's crazy, but I'd still rather have Aldridge.

    Love is a beast! Just because we all love LA and what he means to us shouldn't take away what the LoveBoat is doing.

    Yeah but he is a giant stat whore that plays Shit defense and can't be depended on at the end of games.

    Lma is a better player.

    Davis will end up better than both, just not this year

    I have no idea what the twolf fans think. Most of them hate the blazers for whatever reason and we think of them as the Shit on our shoes.

    Great discussion on NBA Lock-down with Bruce Bowen podcast today. A 15 minute discussion about who the best big (not just PF, but C also) in the league. Talked a lot about LMA, Howard and Love, with some others also being discussed. it's worth a listen.

    Even if you discount a lot of what Love does, he is an excellent PF. However, LMA is just better. Stats are worse, but his D is ten times better and he also does more that needed to make the team as a whole get wins. Love takes a ton of threes. LMA could take those too, from all accounts his 3pt shooting in practice lately has been stellar. But the team needs a player to eat up mid range and to post up, and LMA does those. Hence, at the start of the season many around the league were looking at rosters and predicting the Blazers would miss the playoffs while the wolves would be a 45-50 win team . Well, our star plays in a way to highlight the team concept and elevate everyone, while Love just plays stat-whore. Look at the results.

    I think Love is a small forward.

    The biggest difference is how StatLove doesn't make the players around him better. Hickson filled up the stat sheets, but at the cost of his team. StatLove is the same way, which is why their team is mediocre at best.

    I think Love would be okay as a second guy, but they need a #1 guy.

    While his stats are very impressive, I don't think you can design an efficient, hard-to-stop offense around Love. I think it can be done with LMA.

    Aldridge is three time player of the week and a true MVP candidate. Love is a stat padder on a lottery team. No comparison.

    Rubes will soon be talking shit about Love when he leaves that shit hole for another team. It's actually funny if they think they can keep him.

    He'll be a Laker very soon. I think it was Simmons who was saying that Love and Westbrook will be Lakers after 2014-2015.

    They also think Bricky Rubio is better than Damian Lillard. They think ALL there players are better than ours, yet somehow they are 12-12 and we are 21-4. Game over fucktards!!!

    Prepares for onslaught of cawk pix....
