Is this like the Wilson Chandler trade rumor thread where it was like 10 pages of pure bull and speculations? Lay off the pipe.
Yes, it happened (in some peoples' delusional minds only)

Check back tomorrow after the weather clears and minds are saner.

You are correct - damn, ignore most of my post then![]()
My sources in the front office tell me this trade is legit and will be executed by the end of the day.
Chow.
Love will be traded to LA.
Wolves will get Marc Gasol.
Memphis will get Smith and future considerations.
My sources say Lebrons talents are being traded to south Tex
Pop put a veto on this because Bonner was involved in the trade.
Agreed. Hill is our best defender for guards. Blair and Splitter would be missed but Love would more than make up for them.
Hill's the deal breaker
yeah right
you can package quite everything for K Love, even with TP involved I'm pretty sure wolves would say no in a heartbeat
Well, I don't think this deal will happen, but the TWolves having to trade Love for about as much as they could get out of this trade is not all that unlikely. He's reportedly unhappy there and may threaten to walk when he can and leave them with nothing.
Hill? No,thanks.
Build around Kevin Love? Yes,we can see how good are the Wolves. A great franchise player
Blair had 2 20/20 games last year too.He could average 15/10 in Minnesota
Obviously Love is better than Blair but he's a bit overrated.
And Splitter is a good player.He was as good as Marc Gasol was in Spain.And a lot better than Serge Ibaka for example,
Love for Blair+Splitter ? Ok
But Hill....we need him now.I think Gary Neal is overrated in this forum.I saw him in the spanish league and he was a role player.He was waived.
Right now He's playing well but....
Only Manu/Tony in the backcourt is a big risk.Chris Quinn is a joke.
Love is not a franchise player. No big man whose team has a 9-30 record is a franchise player. That is an impossibility based upon NBA history. (Nor would any top big have a .459 field goal percentage, regardless of three point attempts.)
As far as matching up with the Lakers goes, Love's 0.3 blocks per game would likely not help much. (Even Bonner blocks more shots/game.)
Spurs aren't going to trade anyone jackasses, they are 33-6.
LOL at all the GM's posting here on this forum.
Kevin Love is not KG, he's not Shaq and he's not Pau Gasol. Kobe and Pau were getting their teams to the playoffs without each other. Shaq was as well as KG were doing the same things. Love cannot get his team to .500 even with Michael Beasley and a pretty good PG.
No mid season trade that I can recall that didn't include the above listed people has ever produced anything significant. I am talking about modern era, since Jordan.
Show me that Kevin Love can propel his team to even a playoff spot, make his teammates better and do more than what Blair could do in his rookie season minus the jumper and maybe I would think more of it.
, actually I don't even know which of those were mid season, maybe only Pau... not sure when he joined the Lake show.
I would say I'm shocked this made it 6 pages. but again, this is Spurstalk.
Kevin Love is so much better than Blair, you'd have to be on crack to not realize that.
In case you haven't noticed, the game has changed since the Jordan era. Dirk hasn't propelled Dallas to a championship; Kobe didn't win one minus Shaq or Pau; D. Howard never one one; Blake Griffen's Clipp's are sporting a losing record. The bottom line is Love makes his team better and that's with or without the overrated services of Beasley. If Love came to the Spurs, he would most definitely improve their chances of winning a championship. K. Love doesn't have to be the man at age 22 and he wouldn't be if he dawned a Spurs uniform.
I dont believe any source that this trade has even been considered by either team. But hypothetically this is a great trade for the spurs in terms that they get a player that is a great rebounder and post player down low. He may never reach the level that Timmy was at. but then again who will? probably no one. Blair is a hustler that is a great role player, but he will never be a franchise player or anyone that a team can build around. if he were 3 to 6 inches taller he would be easily but the fact is he isnt. another reason i doubt this trade will ever happen is i doubt the spurs have given up on tiago. I know that he has only played in basically scrub time, but the whole spur community was excited to finally get him over, and im hoping hes better next year. With all this said. I would gladly give up both tiago and Blair for Kevin Love, just based on this season. Giving up George Hill would be tough for a lot of reasons starting with hes a great defensive stopper following that he is a great spark off the bench, but in the long term (especially cause Timmy is getting old and Love is pretty young) doing this trade wound be a good move, in the short term im not so sure.
Plus i doubt this trade is actually a real possibility cause i dont think kahn is really that insane. I honestly think this wont happen, although i think the spurs would love to get their hands on kevin love.
Kevin Love is a beast and a franchise player. Only someone who doesn't watch games would disagree. Minnesota should get better offers though.
now thats a stupid idea!
