Official NBA threadimo Lucas > Perkins
Griffin got the ball over Perkins... LeBron got HIMSELF over Lucas :3
Now, onto the Kevin Love subject.
Good player on a bad team = inflated stats
ok, the wolves kind of sucked last year.
but let's see...
2011 2nd round pick Derrick Williams (he's a decent rookie, he just needs some of that time Matthews/Beasley are getting).
Michael Beasley, who averaged 20 points in his last season, may have had a slow start, but he got it together (even with the little amount of time he's been getting).
J.J. Barea. He's got championship degree... and for a reason.
That may not be a contender team, but that's not a bad team either... and yet still manages to get 20+ ppg.
About the rebounding, Love doesn't steal the rebounds just from his teammates, so you gotta give him more credit.
Regarding the PFs being better than him.
Dirk Nowitzki: Sure, he shoots like 30x better than Love, but then what? He's great a face-up player, but as a PF being a better rebounder makes you better, specially if both have similar ppg.
Chris Bosh: You wouldn't know. Ever since he's been playing with LeBron and Wade, he hasn't had the same protagonism he had in Toronto. Nobody knows if he's hiding something up his sleeve.
Blake Griffin: He may have more upside than Love, but don't dare to compare them in this moment. Blake Griffin just started working on his jump, while Love can knock down 3s consistently. Griffin won the dunk contest, Love has a rebound title, which one would you prefer as a coach? If we take into account what you said about bad teams, it applies the same way to Griffin, and yet Blake didn't have as many rebounds.
Overall, Kevin Love is arguably the best PF in the league.
