his scoring went down naturally as he went from being a first option to a 3rd option but he was more efficient

Only watch the finals and I didn't see it.

[EJB]

Either way he sure didn't make him better.

He wouldn’t have made me better either

[mochjas]

Only watch the finals and I didn't see it.

so you are judging Kevin love based on 12 games?

So then you never saw IT play.

Should I look at his stats?

that would enlighten you a little

I guess I need to learn how to read stats. His last year at MIN tops every year at CLE. Offense and defense.

again you are comparing him from when he was a #1 option to a # 3 option. As a 3rd option he is putting up unbelievable numbers. As you can see he is playing less minutes and scoring only 2 points less. His 3 point shooting which is key has Been better these last 2 seasons than it was in Minnesota

Save your BS for some n00b. He was a lot better player before he came to CLE.

no disrespect to you at all. You might have more knowledge of the olden game but you are not plugged in to today's game.

And again no one said he wasn't putting up better numbers in Minny he was. All I said eas he is a more efficient player on Cleveland and the numbers you linked show it.

You are a N00b when it comes to stats but for some reason think that anyone who disagrees with you doesn’t know basketball.

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Which numbers I linked to? Offensive and defensive numbers are all down from his last year at MIN. He was only 25 so each year he should be getting better.

When they blame position on three different players, yes!!!

did you look at shooting percentage? Did you look at minutes played? Or did you only look at points scored? You said yourself that you don't watch him play so how can you even have an opinion?

His advanced stats and efficiency this year have actually been slightly better than @min. Of course his usage is down being a #2 option.

He’s trolling you.

I see you didn't look at the stats.
36.3 MP higher than any year with CLE
.457 FG% higher than 3 out 4 years with CLE
2.9 ORB higher than any year with CLE
9.6 DR higher than any year with CLE
.524 eFG% higher than 3 out 4 years with CLE

Now please explain what you are talking about. Not even going to go with PTS since that will blow you out of the water.

So which is that 4th year you aren’t counting? And at least you’re noticing mp is lower...
