Is Kevin Love worthy of a max-level deal?

[MK2V1GP]

Haven't max deals screwed a lot of teams' chances to win it all because there had troubles dealing with other players' contracts and free agent signings? KG in Minnesota is somewhat one.

Kevin Mchale screwed KG and the Timberwolves with the Joe Smith deal. That's the biggest reason the Wolves never were able to really advance. That move handicapped them for years.

[PHaYze]

There's a lot of teams that would give him a max if the Wolves dont

[LamarOdom]

If Rubio doesn't go down, the Wolves are fighting for the 6th seed, not the 8th seed. Before Rubio went down, the Wolves were tied for 7th and a half game behind 5th.



Btw, this thread is still stupid. Love is a top 5 player in the NBA.

You are the joke who actually belives Klove is a top 5 player, a top 5 player should be able to push his team to the playoffs or atleast contend for it, even Steve Nash is doing it.

Look at top 5 players like LeBron, Wade, Kobe and Howard all of them took their them to playoffs with a terrible team.

So do you think Kobe was a top 5 player in 2005 when the Lakers missed the playoffs?

Can't say for sure but probably no since he was injured close to 20 games, but the year after he took them to the playoffs with a team that wasn't much better.

Pretty sure Kobe missed the playoffs. The only reason Wade made it 2 or 3 times was b/c the East was trash.

Howard doesn't have a terrible team. They even win when he doesn't play or doesn't play good.

You're a clown and your logic fails.

No, Magics lost to Nuggets and Wizards this week with Howard gone, Magics have had one of the best defensive ratings in the league with players like Ryan Anderson, J-Rich, Turk, Nelson, Davis etc as their players. Howard also lead them to the finals with Rashard Lewis as his wingman like to see KLove try that.

Kobe when missing the palyoffs played injured whole season and missed 20 games year after lead them to the playoffs with same shit team.

KLOVE is not an impact player just a statsheet stuffer.

disregards nash because he has no counter argument.

fact is, if you want to be top 5 nba player, you have to maintain your team at .500+/make playoffs.

only ish 12 year olds are about stats. wow! 40 points! but where will he be post season? does it involve a fishing rod?

top 5...

Detroit must have had a top 5 player in 2004. Only top players win rings, right?

The Magics? I'm not going to waste my time disputing something with someone who calls the Orlando Magic the Magics. It's obvious you can't have an intelligent conversation/debate.

Nash wasn't mentioned. He didn't lead his team to the playoffs last year and might not this year.

Jordan didn't win anything til he had a top 50 player alongside him.


Funny thing is, everyone who hates on Love and says he puts up empty stats, they'd gladly take him on their team and then their opinion of him would change.

Kevin Love has had to play with scrubs like Webster, Darko, Wes, etc. Prime Duncan couldn't lead a team like that to the playoffs.


The infestation level of morons on ISH is really at an all-time high right now.

That is LeBron finals team from 07, please tell me now how much better the Cavs was.

Edit: BTW how many wins does the TBW have w/o Rubio?

[airchibundo507]

Good one.

neither could MJ! i mean look at them!
