Re: Kevin Love will be the biggest bust in the 2008 draft
I said this when I saw him in the tourney this year, was afraid to say it due to getting a bunch of slack. He just couldnt get it done against other great college players and seemed liked a over hyped white guy, but announcers kept making excuses for him.
Re: Kevin Love will be the biggest bust in the 2008 draft
Do you realize he was playing with a hurt back since the Pac 10 tournament? A badly hurt back at that. You guys weren't watching him at full strength, you were watching a hurt injured Kevin Love.

have you seen his skin color? he's going to be a bust bc of just that. name the last white guy who played really well after being drafted
Re: Kevin Love will be the biggest bust in the 2008 draft
I don't think Love can be considered a bust unless he seriously sucks. No one is expecting him to be a franchise saving superstar. He was drafted high because of his great skills, and high basketball IQ. He was drafted to horrible team and was traded to a horrible team, but he isn't there to turn the team around. He will, however, be a very nice player to have on a team. Multi position, multi skilled type player.
The other white busts that have been named have been one dimensional players (Morrison and Reddick).

Also people are judging him just from the NCAA tournament but they don't seem to realize that he was playing through a pretty bad back injury the entire tournament. That wasn't him at full strength
