The moment that Kevin Love was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers there were expectations from fans to media members alike for him to post similar numbers, with the Cavs, as he did with the Timberwolves. These high expectations were unrealistic and unfair; given that he joined a team with two other star players, a new coach, and a new system that looked to display his three-point shooting. Love looked uncomfortable in his new role, at first.
However, he did have a few big games in his first season with the Cavaliers, but he was never truly put in the position to score and create for others as he did with the Timberwolves as he made an uncomfortable home along the three-point line.
