Look I commend Love's passing ability, but its not a necessity that the big man knows how to pass. Beasley did just fine in K-state without being a good passer. Hansbrough job is finisher, not creator.

Has Lawson ever inbounded the ball once in his career? Probably not because it would be stupid for a PG to do so. With Love on the other hand, you often get some fast breaks before the play even begins because he inbounds it and throws the ball 50 feet in the air.
Besides that, his passing ability can't just be restricted to outlet passes. Love is a great all-around passer, even in the halfcourt game. And if teams are pulling back guys to defend against his outlets, that means they're sending less people to the glass to fight for the rebounds.

That's not the argument. You always twist words. Sometimes I think people on here can't read. I didn't say Love was the MVP. I said if you thought Hansbrough was clearly the better college player (not pro - please re-read my earlier statement) then you hadn't seen Love play much this year.

They can read, they just take people's words to mean the negative. Then you get "Are you kidding me?!?!" or "What in the world?!?!?" responses... I find it best to just stop responding after a while, even if it ends the "discussion."

Re: Love vs Hansbrough.
Hansbrough is a better college player IMO although Love is a better passer. Love will be a better Pro.

Clearly the better college player, meaning there is not that big of a difference between both or laughable because Love is the better college player. Which one is it?
Really how is that different from what I am saying, when you are implying that by thinking that Hansbrough is a better college player, it means people havent watched Love play.

On a team that routinely blows out their opposition, I dont see how Love is somehow going to make that much of a difference if you replace him with Tyler. No one has accounted for the fact that Tyler gets to the line a lot, putting the opposition's best big man in foul trouble most of the time. Can the same be said about Love?

Yes, very much so. You can ask the Lopez twins themselves, he fouled both of them out all by himself in the same game.
