Zombie Kevin Love?

[PtldPlatypus]

If he was bought out, and the Blazers could get him on a min. deal, he would be a nice veteran player who, in spots , could be relied on to hit clutch shots off the bench.

Yeah, he's not getting bought out. Cavs have no reason to do that.

Well there ya go. Maybe the mods ought to remove this thread. A long with other nonsensical hogwash.

How 'bout I reclassify it as a zombie since it was started 4 years ago and bumped for no valid reason?

Geez, lol. Tough crowd.

All you need is Love!

@Fez Forthright are you going to just sit and take this trash talking of your thread?

You don’t think when KLove is a free agent the Blazers might show some interest?

I sincerely doubt it. We already have two 6'8" who lack ideal mobility, both of whom look like they can stretch the floor and rely on their BBIQ more than anything else... I know one is a rookie and the other is a second year player but that's a lot of redundancy with those specifics. I guess if Jabari and/or Trendon is/are traded before free agency next year that Love would be a possibility it just seems like with those two on the roster Love doesn't make too much sense.

That will be a year from now. Not really relevant today.

Again, he's not getting bought out--there's no reason for the Cavs to do that. He might get traded, since he is an expiring deal, but the Blazers will not be in the market for his services this season given his salary and their hard-cap status.

Love's 21-22 season was his best in 5 years. He hit nearly 40% from 3. His DRtg was his best since turning 30. And most importantly for him, he was healthy, playing over 70 games for the first time since the Cavs won the title.

He was a perfect bench big.

If he were on this roster, he would easily supplant WWW at backup 4, and we'd be a better team for it. But not at $30M+.

That's where i'm coming from. If was to get bought out, he would be the perfect bench big. And in a playoff situation, he could be counted on to hit a big shot. That kind of moment can't be filled by any of the last 6 players on the roster.
