would be such an amazing due Love and Howard in LA, two of the best complaining and whining guys in the league!!

aside the jokes I would like Love to stay, because him and Rubio and Pekovic is a solid base to add some piecese and be competitive for quite some time.

If we have to lose him, please David, make a good deal for once, no draft picks but players functional to the system

Well, you know he's going to be asked a ton about this tomorrow so I wonder what his reaction will be. It's pretty selfish on his part if you ask me. Yeah I hate Kahn too, but why do this during the season. All it becomes is a distraction and puts unnecessary attention on yourself instead of focusing on the team. He's here the rest of this year and all of next year. The only time he's going to get moved his 2014 either before the season or before the deadline.

Just to add, Who in the hell tries to sign their star player to a contract extension in the locker room after a loss. What in the hell?

O.k. YOU JUST CAN'T DO THAT!

No more love from me, from now on: I really tried my best to to defend KL42 in this Post here, but if he really would mind for the goods of the team, he NEVER, EVER would adress the media like that. Sure you can think like that, but you never speak it out loudly (not even to your teammates): it makes the team unsure, it make the GM and Owner (Which quote was stupid as hell, too, by the way...) don't try to make the team around you better, etc. etc. What's the reason with this interview, anyway? I don't get it... That's just not the behaviour of a star (i.e. supremacy) or even an adult, that's just the behavoir of a little selfish, aggrieved boy...

I'm really pissed right now: behave like a pro, man! I sincerely wanna get rid of this guy, so I reactivate my trade propsals & try out a couple other ones... (all checked by trade machine...):

- KLOVE, JJ Barea & DWIll for Josh Smith & Al Horford...
- KLOVE for DWade
- KLOVE & DWILL for DH12
- Or: KLOVE & JJ for : LA & Babbitt
- Actually, right now I would even go with: KLOVE & JJ for Horford & A. Morrow
- Or maybe even for (quite bold): KLOV & JJ for Kidd-Gilchrist, Henderson, Mullens, Diop + Draft pick
- I even think about: KLOVE & JJ for Nene, Beal + Draft picks...
- I immediatly would go for Love, JJ, Bargnani to the Bulls, Boozer to the Raptors & Noah to Minny...
- Also KLOVE for Davis, Aminu, Henry (This maybe would be the best trade, but it won't happen!!)
- At this point, I even would consider KLOVE for Luol Deng a possible trade... (which would be unrealistically though, unless The Bulls ship Boozer for Calderon, too)
- Also with KLOV & JJ for Varejao & Walton
- Also KLOVE & JJ for Bosh & James Jones...
- Also I will go with: KLOV & JJ for Gallinari, Farried, Mozwgow & Chandler
- Also: KLOVE & JJ for D.Lee & Barnes...

- Amare is little too expensive, though... (financially it would work, if we would trade JJ, and get Shumpert in exchange...)
- (I even played with the though KLOVE & JJ for Johnson & Brooks, but, no, I don't think so...)
- (KLOVE for Gortat & every Draft pick of the next 10 years...)

I am glad most of you are seeing this for what it is: another irresponsible article by Woj, filled with dangerous rhetoric mostly formed from his own opinions.

REGARDLESS, those Love quotes are very.....ugh. During the season in which your team is playing well despite crazy injuries? I mean....

The irony is there is still zero way he broke his hand doing knuckle pushups.

But the main takeaway for this that I want to hammer home is, communication like this is rarely done off the cuff without some sort of strategic element in mind. For Love to actually go out of his way and eat lunch with Woj (easily the leading NBA reporter these days) while the team was out east last week was not done out of the goodness of his heart. It was done with an agenda from camp Love. This, and Kahn's recent silence and Doogie reporting that "something weird is going on with him" are all concerning things regarding our GM. Something is amiss.

I am surprised no one really seems to agree with him. From reading around, a lot of people are really starting to forget just how terrible of a GM Kahn has been since he was hired.

Jerry Zgoda tweeting some interesting stuff on the not-a-whole-lotta-Love article.

My favorite quote so far was that Kevin didn't mean to alienate anyone (team, coaches, front office, fans). So if that is true, why open your mouth and alienate people?

That don't make no sense.

Kevin speaks today after shoot around.

It makes sense because it is an AGENDA. Sportswriters are tools for athletes to sway opinion. Woj is an agent guy. Love also discussed a lot about Al, who shares an agent with Love. That isn't a coincidence. People act like love coincidentally ran into Woj in Philadelphia. It was set up with a clear message in mind.

There is always something calculated about such comments. Reading through the lines, I think Love honestly wants to stay in Minnesota and win here, as this is his team. He just wants Kahn fired.

No way, he's clearly bolting to a different team first chance he gets. What purpose is there to try to get Kahn fired right now? Kahn barely even has that much power anymore, Adelman & Sons are running things. As long as we don't have any high draft picks, the amount of damage Kahn can do is minimal.

Love just likes being the center of attention. I think that is the whole purpose of this interview with Woj.

Woj's agenda, Kahn and/or Glen's idiocy, and the truthfulness (or not) of Love's comments aside, this is NOT well received by the team. You think this stuff matters when AK decides to bolt this summer? You think Ricky doesn't hear this dancing, back tracking, and alienation by Love? Ugh...this is poor, poor "leadership" by him. Now this back tracking post-shoot around interview makes him look even worse.

There is something more here. There just is. Love doesn't just sit down with Woj at a restaurant while on the road and say this crap unless it was thought through by him and his agent (one of Woj's biggest sources). Love's agent has had multiple clients mistreated by Kahn. Big Al, who he oddly went out of his way to discuss at length, Beasley...and he also has Pek so that is going to be interesting this summer.. I think this is more about Kahn than Love himself. I don't think he does this if he plans to just get up and go without looking back. Love wants his own team, but he wants to be treated well. Wants his cake and to eat it too.

Regardless, I totally agree Love is gone, and I agree they were dumb things to say at this time of year. Not going to disagree with anyone at all. I just read his comments as "he wants to build a winner here, and badly." And if Love leaves, Ill be pissed but Kahn is the moron who has f-ed things up from the very beginning.

Also, FWIW:
Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA
Abundantly clear talking w/ @kevinlove: Feels deeply connected to Wolves fan-base, loves Minny as sports town. He wants badly to win THERE.

The above tweet no doubt a text message from Jeff Schwartz to Woj that said "tweet this."

I didn't realize that Jeff Schwartz represents not only Love, but Pekovic as well.

I've always wondered why we never heard anything about contract extension talks this fall between Kahn and Pek's camp. Or did I just miss it? Did Kahn clearly come out and say at some point that they had discussion but the organization made a decision to wait until next summer?

So whatever the case, we know that Schwartz and Kahn are going to have to continue to try to do big business together soon.

I wrote a little more about it here:

Oh gee................. good thing we didn't trade K-Lav for Ibaka and Harden last year. Welp, epic FAIL.
