Not a Love fan, but this surgery doesn't seem like a big deal. Lot of players have this minor procedure and come back strong. He'll Ron Artest came back in 12 days. Whatever PEDs Artest is using, in sure Love can get if needed.
This is a very minor surgery if it is just scar tissue. That said doctors generally don't like going in and removing scar tissue because it can regrow and sometimes become more of a problem.
ill take smith over love, just because love is more injury prone. dont get me wrong, i love- loves game. although i would not sign him to an extended contract after the numerous injuries he has been through.
the fatal problem with josh is ... no post game. if we dont get any post game from our 4, we are a team left without any post offense. we all know how that would go in po.
I have a feeling morey puts the full court press on Love. With harden recruiting him well get him and be a force for the next 10 years. He looks like an old man, but I think people are forgetting how young Love is.
Don't know how anyone thinks Josh smith bodes better for the future than Kevin Love. Josh Smith is 27 1/2 and his production will probably tank in the next few years due to his dependence on his athleticism. Love is 24, already way better, and his game isn't nearly as reliant on athleticism.
Yes. Even if he had this surgery on both elbows and both knees. He's a hard worker and his hard work has translated impressively well on-court. These kinds of people I don't worry about being lazy or not improving or being losers or injury prone because their own expectations of themselves consistently exceed their team's/fans' expectations of them.
a knee scope is like a teeth cleaning these days. has little to no impact on his future production. my strong desire for Kevin Love hasn't changed much. But i also don't spend my time dreamcasting about players that we have little to no chance of aquiring, especially when they are under contract for 2 more years. Also see Lamarcus Aldridge for details.
I'd take him in a heartbeat man. His deficiencies would be masked by Asik and a defensive minded coach/approach would also go a long ways for Love. Healthy, he's significantly better than any other 4 in the NBA (IMO). Just on another level than a Blake Griffen or Lamarcus Aldridge. The only 4's I might take over him would be Anthony Davis and possibly Favors considering his favorable contract. I don't think Lamarcus Aldridge is a #2 on a championship team, but maybe I'm wrong. I'd also take Bosh over LA (sigh).
And can shoot 3s. His rebounding career is very close to DHo. Do not take a pass on Love, if TWolves are dumb enough to put him out there.
