When Kevin Love picked up his phone on July 1 after the announcement, he ended his message to LeBron James with: "I love you."
He said it again last month when the two former teammates got together in New York and Love got the chance to say it to James' family as well. Love and James are in a good place, which hasn't always been the case with teammates when James has left teams in the past. It absolutely wasn't the case when he left Cleveland the first time around, when several friendships eroded quickly and publicly.
