come on now.

LA dominated Love all 4 meetings didnt he?

Isn't that what I said? I didn't check, but clearly I was correct. Anyways, if I were the President of Basketball Operations for the Wolves, I wouldn't even consider trading Love for Aldridge, even if LMA completely crushed him head-to-head.

SMFH

L.A was arugubaly the best PF in the regular season this season and he exposed Love during their head to head meeting.

I hope your not serious

HM:Carlos Boozer, David West, Kris Kardashian, Andrea Barganani, Lamar Kardashian, Elton Brand

False.

So Blake that can jump out of the gym, but can't shoot beyond 8 feet, can't block shots, and can't shoot free throws is better than Amare who can also jump out of the gym, averages 2 blocks a game, has a money jumper from 15, and shoots 80% from the line?

Yes, I prefer players who rebound and play defense, thanks. LA and Amare both had overrated seasons where they produced at the same rate as previous ones but with career high minutes per game and usage rates.

Bosh - worst season in his prime and still put up better and more efficient overall numbers than LA/Amare, would've been #1 on most people's lists a year ago, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt

Love - doesnt play defense admittedly, but considering he rebounds about as much as LA/Amare combined, I can live with the extra 16 possessions a game

KG - doesnt need a case at this point if you watch him play and watch his defense and what he adds to a team

Blake - go ahead and find me a list of modern day rookie big men who put up 22/12 their first year. Pretty sure that's Shaq and Robinson since about 1970 and that's it. Plus 4 assists, plus 3 highlight reel plays a night, plus team and franchise re-energize, plus a sell out every single night. I'm gonna go ahead and call that all pretty valuable.

it's funny that the people who rank love low because of his team record rank blake high who has also a bad team record and he plays with better teammates

[kumquat]

I'd still take Tim Duncan over half the guys listed here.

[Bigsmoke]

I'd still take Tim Duncan over half the guys listed here.

zach randolph took Duncan out that list

[alenleomessi]

Blake is the best PF at the end of the next season and top 3 player overall

[8BeastlyXOIAD]

zach randolph took Duncan out that list

Lol

[wheatonbrando]

I'm ashamed to have forgotten Duncan on my list. I'd put him top 7 or so still. Though I think I just have him ranked with centers so that's probably why.
