He probably has Stockholm syndrome as this point.  I suspect he's too mentally broken to even desire a trade.

I wouldn't be shocked if he has lost some motivation, to be honest.  Lol @ 'Stockholm syndrome.'  TP, tar.

I actually do feel pretty bad for Love. He seems like a nice guy who's just a bit quiet and always catches the crap from that team.

It'd be funny to see him demand a trade, but I just don't see that in his character.

I don't see it in his character to do so either, but he should. He's pretty much done everything he's been asked to do even when he's asked to step into a role he's clearly not comfortable in, and doesn't complain or pout or talk to the media. It sucks that he's constantly the fall guy.

He's the one guy on that team that seems to legitimately care more about winning than personal stats/status.

With how well suited the NBA is for bigs that can space the floor, he may have had a lot more personal successes and enjoyment in a different environment.  May be a tough pill to swallow.

Nobody Cavs can get will move the needle .....unless they spend the Nets pick or k Love. .....their really only true assets others than LeDiva himself.

So.......basically imdon' think Gilbert and LeDiva are best buds anymore and neither trusts the  other to comitt long term......mutal team destruction is about to occur . 

Cavs now on the way back to bottom of the pecking order in NBA .....their rightful postion.

Fox with a huge putback slam to win the game.  I think the Kings have done a terrible job the last decade, but that was the right pick.  He’s going to be the player that turns that franchise around thanks to his competitiveness.

Cavs looking much better with Crowder coming off the bench.

You got to feel bad for IT. He clearly has no confidence right now, and he looks miserable out there, which is clearly understandable.

Cavs got the win but it doesn't look impressive. They were collapsing in the final stretch. They were lucky to have a comfortable lead.

Terrible night for our Laker pick but kinda good for HCA as both Raptors and Rockets lost.
