Earlier this year, it was seemingly inevitable that Kevin Love would be traded in the offseason. He just wasn’t fitting in.
David Blatt was criticized for his usage of Love but in many ways the bigger problem was the psyche of Love. He was passive. Submissive even. He was relegated to being a spot-up shooter on the outside at 6-foot-10 and 250 pounds and possessing an excellent shooting stroke that extended to the three-point range but was far more deadly at the elbow.
From that spot on the floor, Love could be a true triple-threat.
