You think a #2 or #3 option making 120 million over 4 years is easily tradeable? And they can get a lot for him?

:scratch:


I didn't say a lot.

I said more.

Kevin Love is the 31st highest paid player in the NBA.

So, yeah....

People will pay their 2nd or 3rd option that much.

* See Wiggins, Conley Jr., Horford, Milsap, Howard, Porter who all make more

It's a tough call on Love, imo. The guy is a very good basketball player and, when healthy, can really help a team as a #2 or #3 scoring option and he's an excellent rebounder.

In fact, a healthy Kevin Love would be a huge help to the Lakers since he would provide 2 things they need.

But, I wouldn't want the Lakers to try to get him because he just can't stay healthy and at age 30, it's unlikely that health will become less of an issue as he ages.

Yep

-30
-Injury prone

That's why I don't like him making that much,

In 2 years it could look really bad if he's playing 35-45 games a year.

And a bad back never just gets better. That's something he's battled for a while. Yes, I understand that's not the current injury. Just saying.

Agree about the Lakers.

But, a team like Houston who desperately wants to win before Cp3 falls off the cliff, might be interested.

Yeah, I think he'd work well for them and they have enough that they really would just need him healthy for the playoffs.

@trojanfan12 we must be missing something on Love....
Lmfao....uuuuuh.

I get that you want to troll @WiggyRuss.

But, shitting on Love after you basically said the exact same thing that I did is a bad look.

Once it's on the internet, it's there 4ever.

Just spit-balling here.

If we strike out on everybody but James.....trade for Love and acquire a max player next summer? Maybe Leonard or somebody else.

We could get Love for a lot less than Leonard.

He's worth whatever a team is willing to give up to get him.

...and I would be more than happy to let some other team give more for him. Lakers aren't at the stage of adding fading vets for a run at the ship yet. This is a treading-water and getting to know ya season while hopefully making the playoffs.
