cp3 tier 2 player...roflmao
the amount of excuses for this clown should run out by now
with or without talent around him, his still leading them to nowhere, and when its last game on the line he will lead them to the biggest deficit loss
Yeah, and Amare was certainly a top 10 player at his peak

Lebron
KD
Westbrook
Curry
Lillard

Davis
healthy Kobe
healthy Rose
healthy Paul George
Dirk
Aldridge
Griffin
Melo
Those are the players I'd put over Love right now, at least 13 of them if Kobe, PG and Rose were healthy.
He's the perfect forward to complement Lebron and they will most likely make the Finals together, but he's not a top 10 player in this league with some of these guys leading average teams to Playoffs in the Western Conference. You'd honestly put Love ahead of Griffin, Aldridge, Davis or Dirk, based off of last season? He's borderline top 5 PF in the league, but not a top 10 player.
He puts up some nice stats, but they haven't won many games and before you tell me the Wolves are so horrible as a team, how many games did they lose in crunch time last season, when they needed Love to seal the deal?

love doesnt play to win man
he only plays to pad empty stats
his looking at the bigger picture since the nba is a business and only handful of teams are really contenders, his going after what everyone is failing to understand...get paid
his one of them players who has figure out the league...pad stats to get max contract
Parker has a slightly quieter year and he goes from top 5 to out of the 10?
The goods ^
Love's stans like to claim that the Wolves were just "unlucky" in close games, but if Love had anywhere near the impact he's hyped up to have, he should be enough to swing some of those close games in Minny's favor....
Right off the top of my head, last year, I recall Love choking a game against us by missing a bunny layup and choking a game against MethKC at the free throw line....
Some of y'all are delusional.
Curry, Harden and even Melo (exception of last season) are not better than Love![]()
What makes Love better?
I don't get the Curry love (lol). He's barely a top-10 PG. He's not better than Love, and he's not a championship-level first option.
Anyway, I'm surprised Marc Gasol isn't making any top-10 lists. I definitely think he may be better than Love.
James
Durant
Davis
Westbrook
Bosh
Griffin
Paul
Aldridge
Dirk
Gasol
The #1 option argument is pretty illogical, tbh, as there are only 2 legit "traditional" #1 options in the league today, unless you want to include Westbrook in there, too, tbh..
As we just saw with the Spurs, where Kawhi Leonard was the best Spur in the Finals(and Diaw may have even been 2nd), you don't necessarily need to have a traditional #1 guy if you have other great players and a top-level system..
Lebron
Diaw
Davis
Westbrook
Durant
Griffin
Paul
Aldridge
Melo
Kobe
You need a #1 option to get you to the playoffs. And the Spurs' success because of their system is unparalleled. Miami's system was LeBron and they got two rings. Dirk rang with great defensive players around him yet he was still the #1. No one dismantled the Heat in the Finals like SA did and there's a reason for that.
hard to call him a top 70 player. By stats sure, by watching him, no.
I meant legit #1s that can win you a le..there are only 2-3 of those in the league at the moment..
Sure, Love isn't, but neither are current Dirk, Curry, Harden, current Howard, Paul, Griffin, etc..
If advance statistics and metrics are your measuring stick, he's better than all of the above.

That would actually make him worse, tbh. So what makes him better?
Another thing in Love's favor is that he's a high-level off-ball player, which is essential if he's going to be playing in a 1a/2 option role..the transition should be relatively easy, as he already does a ton of his damage off the ball and through rebounding..
Since most of these guys that have been named aren't franchise-level #1 guys, it's imperative that they can play off the ball when teamed up with another superstar player(like the potential Love-Lebron combination)..players like Irving, Harden, Carmelo, etc haven't ever shown that they can succeed without handling the ball, which is a negative against them IMO..
especially since they have varejao who is a far better defender and just as good as a rebounder.
Giving up on a play so he can get the rebound is not damage. Harden can. He hasn't played with a PG who can handle it. Not since Westbrook.
that's not even debatable. Westchuck is better at anything meaningful than love
Please explain.
