Al, GreenWarrior:
You guys don't have players that you enjoy rooting against? I don't believe that at all.
It's no different than someone saying they wouldn't want LeBron or Kobe (in his prime) on the Celtics -- except that Kevin Love is worse than both of those players.
This makes zero sense.
I don't understand the outrage in a really good player like Love wanting to leave one of the arm pits of the NBA in the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Are you a Timberwolves fan?
Nope, not a Wolves fan at all. And I don't begrudge Kevin Love leaving them -- their team is awful. I just don't want him in green.
I read that sentiment: "I just don't want PLAYER X in Celtic Green! He's NOT A CELTIC, blah blah blah" all the time. Why is it suddenly so controversial when its pointed at Kevin Love?
Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but my feeling has always been that if a player is talented and can produce on the court, then get him here by any means necessary.
I don't agree with this happy horse you know what of a guy needing to be a "good clubhouse or locker room" guy in order for him to be Boston material.
But, to each his own I guess.
