He's not going to say anything either way he and his agent saw Dwight flip flop and he's still rebuilding his image.

It's looking less likely to be here but I like that he owned up some to both Ricky and Flip's comments. Wouldn't be surprised if he uses those comments as bulletin board material to become the leader he already thinks he is.

Trade or free agency bolt I won't hold it against him. Too much " nothing" from the team early in his career, "good" times too late, too few, and too far away.

Flip needs to trade him to a lousy destination, or let him walk.

Love was completely worth his contract. And it was the Wolves who gave him the opt out in the first place! Even if he was happy, it would of been stupid not to opt out and get another max deal with longer years. Love gave the wolves 6 years, he doesn't owe Flip one damn thing

Yeah, I didn't like his comments either. I don't like how he's handled any of this, but I do get there's a degree of difficulty in forcing your way out of town AND keeping a good image. I would have respected Love a ton more had he lowkey told Flip man-to-man that he was planning on opting out and together they could find a new destination for him. Maybe that's what was supposed to happen and news leaked out. Either way, I didn't like what he had to say on the issue.

Trade Love to the East, likely Chicago. Get us some competitive starters and a couple young prospects for the future.

What do you think of this?

That is the definition of passive aggressive. Just come out and say what you mean Kevin!!

Have to get scorers back. Who on this roster without Love can score in the 4th? Zero

He isn't in his opt out year!

He has only played two years (well actually one, so know he didn't earn his money) of his three year deal. He could have gone to Flip in private and told him he intended to leave, but instead they leaked it to the media to start a shit storm.

You know what he means though. Straight up saying "I want out of Minnesota" might be a dig that he doesn't like the fans or the city, which I think he actually does.

The comments seem worse, to me, when you see him saying them...and laughing along with the others. Thx for posting, even though it does piss me off.

Or we could go more defense. Try to clamp down harder in the 4th rather than score more. Let Rubio have more freedom in the offense. There's different ways we can go about this team's new identity post-Love.
