    Kevin Love goes 31/20 while going 6/18 from the field.

    What a ballhog!!! I can't wait for the fights in that lockerroom this year while his more talented teammates start to get pissed about the White Hole dominating the game in losses.

    Love is a beast.

    Beasley has such tunnel vision.

    I noticed that Darko has the touch of Przybilla on offense -- he really should be asking for the ball. I'd think Rick would have realized this. Guess not.

    Love is a STAT BEAST. He went 6/18 tonight against a bad team. Fantasy team? All-NBA. Real world? Franchise player for a lottery team.

    He'd be a great 2nd/3rd option guy on a contender.

    Did you watch the game? Many of those misses were tip-ins that didn't go down.

    Pau was playing the game when they were up by nearly 30.

    He scored 20 pts.

    His first 20 pt game since April.

    LAME.

    It's funny how Kevin Love can engender such strong reactions. I will say this without hesitation, if the T-Wolves don't lock him up with an extension, I'd love to see the Blazers get this guy with a chunk of their cap room this summer.

    Well we will need a center with Camby and Oden leaving.

    If the Blazers could somehow acquire Love I think LMA can play some center ... wouldn't hurt to draft a project though.

    I'd like Love/LaMarcus/Wallace(or Batum) as my front line. Three forwards, but Love rebounds like a center, and LaMarcus posts up like a center. No problem for us there, lots of problems for the defense (since all three forwards have range out to 22 feet).

    He's putting up franchise numbers, though. LOL. That's the point. Minny almost has to max him, don't they?

    Jon Leuer looked like a vet against the Wolves. Rebounding in traffic and taking smart shots. Nice pickup for the Bucks.

    I don't know that he wants to stay in Minny though.

    ...and he defends like a D-League All-Star. I find this too funny. Love is the modern-day version of SAR. A 3rd player who puts up terrific stats on a horrible team.

    Minny can pay him more than anyone else, though. What contender is going to max him?

    Possibly so. If I were Blazers GM, I might keep Love on another team just so I can guarantee two 30+ point games from LMA. :lol:
