The Celtics would have been bigger contenders to land Kevin Love if the team’s roster wasn’t stocked with still developing players, Steve Bulpett of The Boston Herald writes. “Look, Kevin’s first choice is to stay with Cleveland, and I have no doubt that’s going to get worked out,” a source close to Love said. “But I think Kevin’s liked Boston for a while as a place to play. If their roster was more ready to win right now, maybe there’s a chance we’re having a different conversation. And maybe he’d be going back to Cleveland no matter what. All I know is that a lot of teams wanted in on him, and Boston was one of the only ones he spoke to.” Love announced his intention to return to the Cavaliers earlier today.
I can kind of see that. Not being able to make impact moves or moves to try to win now is probably what turned off Love. Although, I don't care anymore about Love.
He made his decision. I'm just not going to be surprised when Love comes out talking about how frustrating it is being the 3rd wheel.
I also think if we had won at least one or even two games in the playoff series, that would've been the difference maker in Love choosing the Celtics.
Oh well. I really wish Love was on our team, because hes the type of player we desperately needed.
