The hope is that he becomes a lock down defending three point shooter but right now it's still an unknown. He didn't look like a lock down defender when Isaiah Canaan(!!) beat him off the dribble to seal the game. He's young and he's not going to be a stud right away but that's how you're making it sound.

People can hate on Love for scoring all those points, but to do that night in and night out on a mediocre team as their best scoring threat is impressive. It shows he can create his own shot and score on his own which becomes crucial in the playoffs.

SportsAndLady;1642103 wrote:I never said HOF. He's a very good defender and can shoot 3's. Whether you're playing in the NBA, canada, China, Ukraine, Mars or Quahog you don't lose that ability.

What happened on the Canaan play? That was very poor defending with the game on the line. We have no proof (yet) that he'll be able to defend in the NBA. Smart money says he'll become a shut down defender but there's no guarantee of it, that's my only point.

My 14 year old cousin is the same way.

Hate to be that negative guy lol but just how I feel.
