Anyone else worried Love plays for Team USA and then gets hurt? I'm surprised he is not withdrawing from playing.

Man, I've been a wolf fan long enough that I actually believe it is a possibility that he might get hurt and ruin any trade possibility for wiggins. I hope that's not what will happen for our sake..

Anyone knows whether Rubio will be playing for Spain? I'm looking forward to see him play. Next season is going to be rubios 4th season and a full healthy season after his acl/mcl injury. If Rubio is going to make the leap, it's going to be this upcoming season.

I honestly hope Rubio. I think they way Spain has him play does nothing for his game.

I guess nobody wants to talk about this because they know we are screwed and he will get hurt and by not responding everyone will blame me.

I would not be upset if Rubio sat out his Spanish duties but I'm not counting on it. He doesn't seem get much out of it. As for Love, everything about this has become agonizing. Why should that change now?

It'll be interesting to see how chummy LeBron and Love are during this camp

Hadn't really thought about it, but I'm not too worried about it. As for Rubio, yeah would be nice if he kept focusing on shooting & getting stronger.

I think as a general basketball fan I want guys to play. Sometimes its fun when more established guys decide not to play so you have a younger exciting player get a chance but if I was going to watch Love and Rubio would be guys I want to see.

From the perspective of them being on my team...it depends sometimes you want those guys to get out there and play because it makes. Them better but both Rubio and Love have done that thing already and its probably not going to do anything for them. The grind of a few more games and all that is a worry too.

Injury? Yeah that's a factor but guys can get injured playing pickup games working out at home getting in a car accident etc. I'm not sure how much higher the chances are of either getting injured are doing the Team USA thing than whatever else they would be doing in a regular offseason.

Kevin Love is pulling out of Team USA because of uncertainty surrounding his status with Wolves.

Worry no more Wolves fans!

What a classy move by Kevin to bow out so the whole tournament won't be about his status. Lol That was for LST.

Its interesting he isn't on team USA but I think it would have actually been more surprising if he actually stayed on the team.
