The Cleveland Cavaliers are going to have a tough season ahead. They won’t be making the NBA Finals, but they should be in the hunt for an Eastern Conference postseason birth. Kevin Love is still a really good player, and he shouldn’t need a motivation boost to put up numbers every night.
Since he’s come to Cleveland, Love has not always been the most loved guy (pun forced, but oh well). LeBron James has been the player who reaped the vast majority of the praise and blame the last four seasons, and now that will be the case with Love.
