Broussard: Kevin Love to LA 100% certain

[l3bron]

A GM tells Broussard that it’s “a 100% certainty” that Kevin Love will sign with the Lakers after next season. Most executives who’ve spoken to the ESPN.com scribe also believe the former UCLA star is headed for the purple-and-gold.

Unfortunately the lakers arent bad enough to be able to get embiid

And, if he's trade before then...?

It would have to be an offer from a team knowing that the possibility of Love bolting to the Lakers is very high while simultaneously blowing Minnesota away with said offer.

The only (realistic) team I see trading for Love AND keeping him in FA would be the Suns.

The Lakers have what, the 6th worst record? Utah has been winning lately so that helps but Boston has been much worse since the return of Rondo so that evens it out. Milwaukee, Philly, Orlando and Boston are going to end up with worse records no doubt (unless Rondo reverts back to form and leads the C's to more wins.) Cleveland will be major buyers at the trade deadline for veterans/talent, Utah is a .500 team if healthy and Sacramento will win a couple more games when Gay Cousins return.

There's a small amount of hope that the ping pong balls bounce your way.

People have been speculating this for years now and Broussard is trying to take the credit for it.

Utah is a .500 team?

In the West? Over an extended period?

Someone hasn't watched the Jazz this year.

I don't think the past 20 games or so will be sustained in the second half.

Cant wait.

What interests me, are the Rumors in that article of the Bulls going after Melo next year. It says the Bulls are Very Confident in Nikola Mirotic, so that most likely will affect what they do.

Thing is, how would Melo do under a coach that DEMANDS so much from it's Players like Thibs? Would Melo be able to play for a coach like him? Is Thibs what Melo NEEDS to reach his Peak?

Thing is, if not Melo, than WHO?


Next year's Bulls:

Rose
Butler
Melo
Mirotic
Noah


Looks like a very Talented Starting Line up!

This has been explained many times, the bulls can't sign both melo and mirotic next year

Love will be 27 by the time he's a FA and he's never made the playoffs.
