Cleveland pushed on deal centered on No. 1 pick for Kevin Love, but his refusal to re-sign w/ Cavs has killed talks, sources tell Yahoo.


- Kevin Love and his "team" starting to push their weight around...Good for Boston, if it is indeed one of the places he'd be OK with going to.

What a mess of a franchise the Cavs are. Lebron left, Kyrie may be leaving and now Kevin Love doesn't want to stay there.

whooops, posted mine at the same time....definitely good news for boston. I was waiting for Love/his agent to get involved

[rondohondo]

Ha, whatcha gonna do Minny ? We have the best offer ............

[Chief Macho]

And now we know why the Celtics want the first pick.

[knuckleballer]

I suspect Love would change his mind real fast if Lebron returns.

[colincb]

Not a surprise.

[nacceltic]

I also posted this tweet...can we merge?

I'd still do the deal.  I suspect he would change his mind if he and Kyrie like playing under Platt and suddenly are making a run for top 3 team in the East.

So much for that wanting an established player eh Flip. Draft night can't come any quicker.

Love will not play in Cleveland. It is one thing for LeBron to play in Cleveland, he is from there after all. Love will not play in Cleveland even if LeBron is there.

Love has a change to be the Man in Boston. Make it his team -- that is the deal he wants.

Kevin love pushed his weight when he publically flew to Boston and took pics with everyone near the garden wearing Olympics (not wolves) gear.  He wants to be in Boston.

Not a chance he'd re-sign. Losing culture, bad owner, selfish players. Deng is a class act and he couldn't turn that locker room around. They had to go overseas to get a coach, Gilbert's letter to LBJ, Picking Waiters, picking Bennett, firing Brown twice, etc., etc.

The quintessence of a clusterfest and everyone in the NBA knows it.
