I love bigs like Kevin Love. Dude plays super hard and he knows how to position himself. Where do you guys see him 5 years from now? I would take him in Miami over Bosh with the quickness. He is stuck playing with a franchise that does not know how to build a team so they won't be going anywhere. Team success as long as he is in Minnesota is not an option. As an individual do you guys see him possibly being a 20 and 15 guy?

I'm watching this 32 point 21 rebound effort he is putting in against the Spurs right now... Darko also doin work like 20 somethin points 5 blocks wit like 8 boards and 4 assist... We all kno bout his 30-30 game... Kevin Love is one of the few REAL bigs in the game today...

He also has a decent shot on him. I think the sky is the limit for this guy just wanna know what other people think about him...

(Please don't come with no ? if you never even watched a Wolves game in your life)

    20 and 15 is a Bit Much ....

    i See Love more as a 17 and 12 type , which is still really good

    but im Glad Love is Ballin ' , he should have been playing way more minutes even last year i dont know if he was always in the dog house or what but he should have been getting heavy minutes last year also.

    and im also Glad to see Beasley is Hoop'n this year .

    Right now he is at 18 ppg and a league leading 14 RPG... I see no reason why he can't keep that up... I would love to see Love play with another great rebounder... Sometimes rebounding #s are inflated for guys playing with teams like this... Look at David Lee in NY...

    Dude is legit
    He ain't afraid to handle his business in the paint
    He is in better shape than he was in college, which has benefitted him greatly in the NBA

    Yea i know what he's at now but im speaking of over a course of a season , i just dont see 20 and 15 in him..

    cuz i Remember Z-Bo last year was Putting up ridiculous numbers in rebounding for memphis last year and at one point he was around 14 per game during the season and he finished at 11 per game

    u gotta think that 30 Rebound game really Boosted the per average also , how many times does that even happen?? Loves rebound numbers will drop around that 11 or 12 range.

    Yea after today it will go up too... I think he will finish this season with at least 13 RPG tho... Just from watching this team play, he is grabbing like EVERY rebound for certain stretches of the game... No one else on his team can be counted on to grab boards so they all go to him lol...

    Now the Last Part i Can Agree on....i Love how Beasley is hoop'n also but i need for his Rebounds to Pick up some, I Would like to see Beasley Pattern his game after Gerald Wallace they have similar builds and similar attributes, i think that would be a good player for him to study.

    Man I thought Beasley would be a Blake Griffin type... I was locked up when he was in college so I didn't see him play but reading articles n ? I thought he would be a freakin super athletic huge BEAST.

    He averaged 26 and 12 in college, I know it's different but still... I would see box scores where He would have like 30+ and 15+ on the regular in college it seemed like... I thought he would have a much BIGGER presence inside...I didn't know bout his lack of size back then tho because like I said I never saw him play and his #s made me think he was bigger than he really is...

    Yea he is coming along pretty good this season, after the slow start. He's supposed to be a senior this year so he is actually progressing well.

    playing with the national team really helped Love. I thought he would be a bust but he is balling out of his mind right now. Props to him.
