    Love is not a role player. He's an All Star. LeBron would not have won in Cleveland without him.

    Love had no real success until Lebron.

    100% correct, but how much success has Collins had?

    And Love was probably the 4th most significant player on that team, behind LeBron, Kyrie, and TT. That pushes him into role player status.

    That proves it, Love is a role player! If KingSpeed says it, it has to be wrong.

    What I meant when I used that phrase is that Love seems to have gone from being a stat whore to being a team player. Even all stars, the ones you want on your team, are team players.

    Kevin Love grew up as an entitled bitch due to his asshole of a father.
    He was not a nice kid. He was a crybaby bitch.
    I want nothing to do with Kevin Love on the Blazers. If it were to happen, I'd stop watching the team.
    I'm entitled to my opinion. Especially given the history.
    Bye.

    Fuck Lebron sucks, no way he's getting a triple double.

    Boston’s been bad on the road all playoff long. I don’t like either team so I lose no matter who wins... it’s the same in the West too. I think I’m gonna skip the finals.

    Rodney Hood will be available very shortly. Anyone interested? He was looking very good in Utah just a year or so ago - what went wrong?

    If LeBron leaves, they'll build the team around Hood. Sad but true.
