His bad defense is overhyped. He's an average defender. Not terrible. The numbers back this up.
His benefit on offense far outweighs any defensive deficiencies in my opinion.

He's usually not the guy that's going to guard Zeller or Sully for 35 minutes a night, and if those guys are on the floor while he's an offensive option, your advantages on offense with his spacing and shooting will be greater than any defensive disadvantages he can post up smaller PF's and drag bigger PF's away from the basket.

My only real concern is his health, he's mobility appears limited this season.

But yeah, Kevin Love on this team would be a 24 point 10 rebound monster with an enormously positive Real plus minus.
He's a game changer on offense- they just haven't got it quite right in Cleveland yet. Although they're working on it.

I don't see 24 / 10. The strength of our team is sharing the ball, not having one guy dominate it.

Even when Love dominated the ball in Minnesota, the ball still moved a lot. Even when his usage was the highest I think it was still in the flow of the offense not just Love isoing (correct me if I'm wrong).

I think Love could give us 20/10 while scoring mostly off the pick and pop/roll, offensive rebounding and Stevens getting him switched onto smaller guys in the post. I believe that if you add him to our offense, Stevens finds a way to get him better quality shots than he ever has before.

24 points and 10 rebounds seems pretty attainable to me. He's just a better version of /Olynyk Sullinger with three point range and more plays run for him like Isaiah gets. Rebounds like Sully and spaces the floor like Kelly.
