Kevin Love opts out, sources say Paul Pierce may be part of Celtics recruiting team

As expected, Kevin Love will opt out of his contract.

ESPN sources say Cavs forward Kevin Love has opted out of the final year of his contract and will be a free agent July 1

But, then there's these two bombs from Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowoski:

Sources: If Kevin Love goes forward with visits in July, expect Boston to sell him on pursuing group of Love, Robin Lopez and...Paul Pierce.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@WojYahooNBA) June 24, 2015
Sources: Clips offering bench guys to gain trade exception to pay Pierce, but If Celts could get Love - Pierce is in play for Boston return.
