Did anyone notice that Kevin Love has the least number of NBA starts last year than anyone else on the roster. Not bad when our bench players make the team. What's up with that? -Pistol Pete 44 forever

They will bring KLove off the bench for Team USA.

He'll complain and pout, and then force a trade to Team Serbia to be with his new buddies The Eastern Bloc(k).

Good news. I'm hoping Kevin can take the lead on this Wolves team (if he has the game for it).
Thank you for the baton Mr. Kidd - Pretty Ricky

It's not his second season in the NBA, so he should be fine.

I'm going to love watching the competition between Beasley and Love this year. Beasley should be fired up and wanting to get a great contract next year somewhere. Love should be trying to establish himself as the leader of this team. Beasly will probably play behind Love and come in and play less minutes and end up with better stats. They were on the same team in the McDonalds All-American game and while Love was getting the pre-game hype. Beasley had a monster game and outplayed Love. Beasley was MVP. Quite sure Beasley doesn't think he needs to take a back seat to Love and vice versa. Should be fun. Don't know if they are gonna play Beasley at the SF or PF or both, probably both. Hope they both stay healthy and duke it out for PT. Should be a hoot to watch.

Howl to that!!! Personally I want to see this line-up:

Pekovic
Love
SuperBeas
Webster/WJ
Flynn

MW/WJ and CB our 6th men with Milicic and Ridnour getting ample playing time with Ellington and Hayward filling out the rest of the minutes.

I like him alot. I think he has some skills (rebounding & passing) that will keep him in the league a long time. He needs to step up his defense alot and his scoring a little and he's gonna be a legit starter on most teams. Now is he a starting PF on a championship team? I can't go there yet but I hope he keeps developing. -Pistol Pete 44 forever

He's never been good on the defense side of the ball, it's clear if you watched him when he was at UCLA (for his one year). He's always been a favorite of mine. Glad to see there's someone else that likes him a lot too

Good to see you back! It's been a while.

And I think most people like KLove, we just don't think he's a guy that will lead us to a championship or anything like that. Mostly because he doesn't have much of an interior game and his defense is average at best. Hopefully he can improve those two facets though.

All thanks to you, and Twitter haha. I figured out the Avatar thing.
And I agree. As much as I Love.. Love (Haha) he was never going to be a guy who would lead a team to a championship. I just hoped he would be decent enough to shut critics up who had their doubt about him during the year he was drafted.

I think he has definitely achieved that.

I mean, like 2 months into his career I thought he was the biggest bust ever.

I think he's going to have a big year this year. He's going to get some confidence back after playing with Team USA. He doesn't have to compete with Big Al for minutes at PF. He's one of the veteran timberwolves going into his third year with the team. The coach was trying to motivate him last year to get in great shape so he could stay out on the floor longer. He's still getting his body into NBA shape which means losing all his baby fat and getting some more muscles and getting in perfect shape. He was embarrassed by his coaches last year and vowed to never let that happen again so I expect he'll come back with a great season. That's what I'm hoping happens. Course he could just kick back and smoke some weed with Beasly. In that case we're screwed. -Pistol Pete 44 forever
