Re: Kevin Love
Oh man, please don't get me started on Nick Fazekas. I only have one word to describe him: *****. He has to be the softest player to ever put up 20/10 at any level.

Love would get absolutely abused if he played PF in the NBA unless he completely remakes his body.

Re: Kevin Love
Love has a lot of work to do in the weight room. You can't be that doughy and be effective. And I still worry about the back and knees, which is odd cause he's only 19 years old.

Re: Kevin Love
Kevin Love will be a very good starting caliber PF. He can hold his position on defense, has excellent hands, pass, shoot, and score when left open. I'm not worried about him being a bust.
Plus, he's the best interview I've ever heard. He is smart, lucid, funny, and doesn't censor himself.
Asked on the Petros and Money Show about what type of sandwich he would have sex with(forgot how the topic came about), he chose club because he "gets to try three different types of meat at the same time". How could you not love him?

Holding his position won't be the issue. Everyone taking him outside the paint and blowing past him will be though.

Re: Kevin Love
I can see him being Carlos Boozer-esque on that end of the court. Not exactly the most flattering comparison, but I don't think it's going to make him unplayable at the next level.

Well shoot, he could be an NBA hall of flamer then.

Spencer Hawes actually.
As a Bruins fan I hope he stays another year or two, I really think they can win a title with him. But I don't expect much of him as a pro.

While they both have great post moves. Hawes is a legitimate 7'0", while Love is about 6'8". Hawes is soft, Love isn't. Love's skills are used best while playing on a fast break team, Hawes in a grind it out type offense. However, both are white, from the Northwest, went to Pac-10 schools, and have been pimped since junior high.
