    Default Lebron NOT recruiting Love

    http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2015/6/2...and-per-report

    I thought Love would resign with Cleveland, but this isn't a good sign. It's pretty clear he isn't a part of Bran's little entourage.

    I don't see why Bron should. Love knows wtf is on the table in Cleveland. No one is going to kiss your ass. It's either you want to stay and compete or you don't.

    Love should bolt. A title isn't worth completly subjugating your game to accdomadate Bran Ball. Not to mention, all those passive aggressive shots LeBron was taking.

    Love wasn't even an all star in the Eastern Conference last year. His individual game took a big hit.

    Find a good team with good management, where they will properly feature you. It's not like the Cavs are guaranteed any championships, especially with them allowing the inmates run the asylum.

    Lebron wants the ball in his hands. Kevin Love offensively can pass out of double teams and the high post. Lebron came to cleveland as part GM/HC to truly show he can singlehandedly win.

    I believe he and Peyton Manning are similar in that they are so smart that they are their worst enemy.

    He better recruit him. After not mentioning Wiggins name... and the Wig looking like he's going to blow up.

    You just have some players that don't buy into Lebron is the "King". It's fine if players want to do that but I can see where Love or other players won't go for it. Some guys want to make their own mark on a team and not just be a part of the King's court.

    Having said that we still don't know if he will or won't re-sign. So who knows what's really going on.

    I agree with this in part.

    As far as Love being an All Star in the East I'm not sure what happened. Don't know if his game took a big hit or he was just a great performer on a crappy team when he was with the Wolves.

    Love's in an interesting situation. He can either stay on playing third fiddle to Lebron (because come on...Kyrie's the future of that team) and get guaranteed trips to the finals and potential rings, or he can bolt and try to be an all star on another team. It's really an ego/legacy situation.

    Who's to say that he can't win somewhere else?

    No one, but in the weak-ass east the Cavs are a lock for the finals for the foreseeable future.

    Lebron shipped Wiggins because of the hype. I gather thie CAVS team wants veterans hence why they keep trading their first rounders. It's a double edged sword because Lebron guarantees you a low pick and 50 plus wins every year but... there's no chance for young player development.

    If Love leaves it really screws the Cavs...

    Cavs have no cap space to sign anyone close to being on Love's level.

    Sign and Trade him. For Love, they want a 3 and D player and back up PG.

    Cleveland does not want first round picks so it will be easy to unload him if you can keep your first round pick. I see them wanting a trevor ariza type wing and 2 solid bench players.
