Fish - the thing I can't get past w/ Love is that he is a better passing Sean May....is that an off the mark statement? I mean, I like the kid, I would love to have a guy w/o a vagina in our front court but I'm just not sold yet.

Here's another comparison and maybe it violates the stupid rule that white guys & black guys can never be compared to each other >> Charles Oakley with a little more fluidity to his game.

Love is a good fit for a running team for these reasons.
1) He is a very good reabounder.
2) His outlet passing is better than anyone that I'm aware of who is currently playing in the nba.
3) He has three point range, so he could be effective as the trailer on the break.

Love is a better shooter than Sean May and I think he's quite a bit more athletic. Sean May looked a lot more fat to me too.

Love is a top 6 pick. The problem is we have 6 and he wont be there.

I would Love has a better upside... Love really has a back to the basket game. Oak didnt.. he was a tree in the post.

Love is already good... when his body matures a bit more he could really be a dominating player IMO

And who is to say that Love is going to be a slow dude. He lost all that weight and maybe he lost even more. He could turn out to be pretty agile, making him even better for D'Antoni.

Thank Isiah for giving Jamal 40 minutes a night in April.

but is he going to be one of those guys who always naturally puts on weight? people are saying his body will mature, but maybe he'll just have more problems keeping weight off as he gets older. he just seems like he has too many red flags. he seems like one of those college players who is big enough to get his way in college with his moderate size and good skills, but gets exposed in the nba like sweetney, may, laettner, etc.
