Kevin Love is going to come back to Cleveland for five more years. He has finally decided to fit IN and not fit OUT. Love has gone full Lebron. He was the lovable guy on a team that most people hate. Everything Lebron does is torn to shreds and now Love is following his example. If this looks familiar it's because Lebron did the same exact thing to announce his return.
The Decision 2.0 was the exact same thing. Lebron had an article written about how great it was of him to return to Cleveland. Love doing this is so much worse than Lebron. Lebron is the best player in the world, so he can do whatever he wants. Love did not even play at an All-Star level this year. Lebron's title was aptly named, since he was returning to his original team and hometown. Love's title is ridiculous. Yes, the Cavaliers lost in the finals and therefore have something to prove, but Love was a disaster. He was hurt in the finals, so he feels he would have been the difference. However, there was no prove during the season that he was the missing link. The media was calling him out for not being as good as he appeared to be in Minnesota.
Most of all, Love signing with Cleveland is a bad idea because he is dealing with a 12 year old girl on social media. Lebron posted team Instagram pictures without Kevin Love. Now, it may not look like a big deal, but it is huge. Anyone who uses Instagram knows how big a deal it is when someone is left out of a squad pic. If you get left out, there is no way to not be salty about it. Lebron was sending a subtle message to Love. If Love missed this message, Lebron made it clear with his subtweet. There was no way that this was directed at anyone other than Love. For Love to sign on for five years of this, well at least one, we'll see if Lebron sticks around that long, is crazy. He should have left for a team without all the subtweets and high school drama.
I would love, haha get it, to be able to hear what was said at this secret pre-free agency meeting. Lebron probably guaranteed that Love will get to be in at least two Instagram posts with him during the season, if he signs. Lebron also probably told Love to announce his decision with a cool picture and clever caption.
Kevin Love staying in Cleveland may get the Cavaliers and Love a title but at what cost to Love's sanity?
