Blake is primarily a transition dunker and Lin can get shut down on any given night. This guy brings it every night with points and boards. Why he stayed in Minny is beyond me.

Just look at their previous year record. Even with K Love getting double-doubles every night, they weren't able to win at all. Lin is different as he is a minority doing great things. Blake was able to lead a win against top teams such as Miami's big three in his rookie year. K Love isn't new, and everyone who plays fantasy basketball loves him on their team, but his team doesn't produce like they have this season.

Am I right? T-wolves are 19-19 playing in a difficult conference. Even with Rubio he doesn't have the luxuries Griffin and Lin has in other all stars.

Veteran Joined: Feb 2012 Posts: 2060 Location:	#8 Posted: 3/4/2012 12:52:28 AM Because Kevin Love is not Asian and he doesn't jump over cars like Blake.... That being said..... KLove is the best player out of the 3.

Ricky Rubio, petro, Derrick WIlliams is starting to play with confidence, Beasley can go off from time to time. Berea is a nice backup PG. WATCH OUT!!! I know they way over 500 lately

Way better then Blake or Alridge. It is all ESPN. He doesn't play in L.A. and doesn't jump or dunk as well as Blake. Blake can't shoot outside 3 feet!

Seems obvious. If love keeps playing like this, and he stays healthy, people will speak of love in the same breath as karl malone, who also didn't get the same hype as his peers because he was in salt lake city.
