No way would I want to see him on the Lakers. The LA Lakers are usually like all the other teams. They will not have very many whites for much longer. They are usually coal black and it would piss me off to see Love an a team with no other white guys. LA will not have this many whites next year or any year. This is a rare occurence. I want him to stay in Minnesota. I know it's not a big market but it can become a very popular team like the Spurs if they just start winning. Even the Thunder in Oklahoma draw good ratings nation wide because of Durant but mostly because they are one of the top 5 teams in the nba for around 5 years now. Minnesota can get into that mix but they need to find ways to close out games. The only team I would want to see him on other than the Twolves would be Phoenix or Utah but I would prefer he stays right where he is at.
How sad is it when your superstar has a monster game only for your team to lose again. What a damn shame. If they break this team up, you will never ever see another team this white in your lifetime. I wish more people on this board understood that Minnesota is even whiter than your nfl Patriots. They start 4 whites sometimes out of 5 players and 3 guys off the bench are white. That is why it kills me when they lose because it plays into the stereotypes that whites cannot play basketball. They got rid of their toughness and even the other point guard at least could shoot consistantly. All of those guys are gone. If would have been healthy last year they would have been scary good with their shot blocking ability of the 3 white centers they had. Damn I'm bummed out. I need a beer!
I applaud Kevin Love for playing his heart out. I feel so bad for the guy as he wants to win more than the whole team put together.
Dragic is amazing and he is making all of the critics and non all star voters look stupid. Go Phoenix Suns!
WL, totally agree with the spirit of what you are saying. 300%.
However, would I rather have Love languish on a mediocre team that can't get it's sh#t together for the next 5 years or on a Lakers championship team (placing him saliently in the national limelight ala a Larry Bird) even if he was the only white starter (but the clear Alpha)?
If I had a crystal ball, and those were the two options, certainly we'd all go with the second one. Of course, no one has a crystal ball.
Here's Max Kellerman arguing that Love is not a star that could bring the Lakers a national championship. Meanwhile a brother(!!!!) disagrees and shows that he is far more objective than Kellerman. Wow! When bias trumps objective analysis. He even goes so far to claim Chris Bosh is better than Love. Are you kidding me?

I think this turd once said the Klitschkos would never be world champions…OOOOOOPPPPPPSSSS! Haha. He should say more what appears to be true as opposed to what he hopes to be true. Poor guy. Indoctrinated from an early age. And its humiliating how far he goes to kiss the feet of blacks even if he is ultimately motivated by a hatred of whites, rather than a love of blacks. You're a worm kid. But you didn't have a choice in the matter.
