I don't know why people are saying we have to improve on Bradley at the 2. If we got Love and Asik without losing Bradley, he is absolutely important to this team. I'd rather have him than Eric Gordon, Afflalo, etc. just for his defense especially if we take on Kevin Martin. Rondo/Bradley/Martin is a really good backcourt. Good balance. It really shouldn't need to be improved on.

Well, I think you *need* someone like Kevin Martin, to provide some shooting.  As good a passer as Love is, that's going to be wasted if he's not passing to someone who can shoot.  Kevin Martin would be great in that role, ideally with AB being the bulldog third guard coming off the bench. 

Without Martin/someone like him, though, pretty much the only "shooter" on the team would be Love, and maybe KO (if he's not traded).

So as of this post, 40 out of 70 think that team would be a ECF or Title contender.  That is quite a turn around for a 25 win team.  Not sure that I agree 100% with that assessment but if it is true, we should not be afraid to sell the farm to get Kevin Love.  I suspect that people are banking on an improved Rondo as well as Love but still, it is mostly Love that is the difference.

Would be a massive upgrade; but what do you give up. We still need a SG with some size. We still need backup PG, etc. Would not want to give up on this draft altogether just to make this scenario happen.

How is KM a shooter and AB isn't?

I would want someone like martin in Addition to bradley. Let bradley be the starter and have a martin type as a scorer off the bench
