I don’t care if LeBron James is on the Cleveland Cavaliers or not. They’re still the Cavs and they still make kneejerk decisions now and again. Cue David Blatt on the unemployment list.
But they can’t possibly make another one can they? Ever since Kevin Love arrived in Cleveland I’ve been exhausted and sick of the constant whining. Granted he hasn’t done much whining this season apart from that little low key dig at LeBron, supposedly.
But Cavs GM David Griffin has shut it down once again, saying that Kevin Love is here to stay. Hooray.
“You’d have to go a long way to convince me that we’re a better team winning in the Finals without a player like Kevin on our team,” Griffin said Monday in an interview on Cleveland radio station WKNR. “We’ve never once put together an offer involving Kevin nor have we taken a call on an offer for Kevin….
“We think very highly of Kevin and we believe Kevin thinks very highly of this situation,” Griffin said. “But, I can also tell you that we have been very clear from the beginning that there’s no such thing as untouchables. You’re either all the way in or all the way out in this process and we believe our guys are all the way in.”
I mean I don’t hate Love’s game. I loved him in Minnesota and it’s clear that the Cavs sometimes don’t know what to do with him. But it’s the salty attitude. You’re on the best team in the East and you still find ways to whine? No bueno.
