He got his arm yanked of by KO. Then started to be a baby about it after KO tried to apologize

And Love and Olynyk are on good terms now!

Quote
"About a week went by, I reached out to Kelly, sent him a text and said, 'It's all good,'" Love admitted Sunday afternoon while talking to the media for the first time since that afternoon in Boston. "It was a tough play and just move on from there."

Quote
On Sunday, when asked if he and Olynyk were on good terms, he only needed one word: "yes."

I think this is a clear indication that Boston has gone from not only being interested in Love, to being the clear favorite to sign Love!

Love is way overrated.

LMA was in Boston for a Kevin Hart performance, as was Tony Parker. It's suspected that the two enjoyed the performance together. Aldridge is going to San Antonio, not Boston.

Ainge is still interested in Love. You're reading into all this "Entertainment Weekly" type news. It's OK, the boredom gets to all of us

3- LMA puts his home in Portland for sale.

As has been pointed out elsewhere, it appears that the real story is that the owner of the house that LMA was renting put the house up for sale.

If you believe Steve Bulpett, the reason that Ainge is not as interested in Love any more is that he originally wanted to match Love with Rondo (and Green) to avoid rebuilding.  He was the best and most obviously available star-caliber player.  I suspect Ainge is still interested in any star player, including Love; he just has more options, so doesn't need to fixate on only player.

This undoubtedly improves our chances of getting LMA, given that Isaiah Thomas is pretty much the NBA's version of Kevin Hart.

I've been thinking about this recently, and usually when there is smoke there is fire.

Let's order some events.

1- Middle of the playoffs Woj shares a story saying Boston is still a darkhorse location for Love
2- Sometime after Blakely comes up with this story (that we all laughed at) that Danny may overpay Mathews for LMA.
About a month later
3- LMA puts his home in Portland for sale.
4- LMA is in Boston visiting (For what purpose we don't know)
5- IT comments on a tweet of LMA
6- Now all of a sudden Danny isn't interested in Kevin Love.



I don't think it's a big stretch to come to this conclusion, but is Danny not interested in Kevin Love any more because he knows something he can't say about LMA? Is there some type of agreement that's been made behind closed doors that will have LMA in Green next season?

This all seems pretty plausible, but then again, what do i know?
on number six, what makes you all of a sudden think this? did you read something somewhere? if so, i would like to see it too.

if not, or if you are simply working on conjecture since no reports on "visits to boston" are bouncing around, then maybe this thread is more speculation and conjecture and not viewed as evidence or proof.

i think the posters above have the right of it. there would always be interest, but this year is not last year.

He's still interested, just this year its Love's desicion to come here, rather than Danny's decision to pull the finger on a trade. Also there are quite a few more options available this year in FA.

Buuuuuurp!
