In the last five games Kevin Love has been averaging 19 RPG and tonight he has 16 rebounds halfway through the third quarter. BEAST.
6'7.75" (w/o shoes) 6'11.25" wingspan He's small for an NBA PF but he's the best rebounder the NBA has seen in years. I doubt a healthy Oden would grab 15+ rpg like Kevin Love does.
Love has a very underrated offensive game too. Everybody used to say, "oh, but he does it on a bad team". After tonight the Wolves will have 3 less losses than the Blazers.
And the Blazers are a bad team. So yes, he does it for a bad team. Not that I've ever cared about that. He's doing it against the NBA...not against his own team.
I have to admit. Noah has really grown on me as an NBA player. I didn't think his game would translate to the NBA, but his desire and work ethic have made him a sold player. I'd take him in a heartbeat. You can tell when he's on the court that he looks like he wants it more than anyone else. Also, as ugly as his offensive game is, he's pretty efficient.
