*I mean, it's definitely a big concern with Love. I suppose it's a plus that he hasn't had a severe injury since coming into the league...but he's broken bones in both his hands, had a groin injury, a concussion...almost makes you worry more, because it's always something different.Last edited by white men can't jump; Sat Apr 27, 2013, 06:45 AM.

Obviously Dirk's a much bigger question makr there, but who knows. With elite players, they often find a way to overcome physical issues of age, he just needs to believe he'll be playing for something that matters again.

Westbrook had never missed a game in high school, college, and 5 years of pro and then meniscus torn.
Don't forget the original point: Love and JV would be a match made in heaven on both sides of the floor. Regarding that statement I did not mean in the entire NBA at the time although assuming Love stays healthy and JV continues the growth/potential he has shown, we could be talking entire league soon enough. I was originally talking about the two players individually.

Really my only piont is that Love's injury history is worrisome, because he hasn't had a major issue but always seems to miss time. Is it bad luck or is he a glass man? Hopefully just bad luck.Last edited by white men can't jump; Sat Apr 27, 2013, 10:13 AM.

Was watching Game 6 of OKC vs HOU, and was thinking that both Patrick Beverly and Aaron Brooks seemed to fit the Houston Rockets uptempo offense better than Jeremy Lin. Since they both come with smaller price tags I wondered if maybe a Bargnanni for Lin trade might make sense.
For the Raptors Lin would be a great back up PG for an often injured Lowry, he's pretty decent 3 point shooter, smart player, young etc...also MLSE could have a field day marketing him to the asian demographic in Toronto.
For the Rockets Barganni would be an instant upgrade on offense from Greg Smith (who?), Terrence Jones (rookie and a tweener), though Motiejunas should see more playing time he might still be a year away from being fully NBA ready but a good first big off the bench for next year. Not sure how salaries match up but for conversation sake how does this trade sound to you all?

Toronto send away Bargs + Kleiza + 1st rounder
Toronto get Jason Thompsons + Fredette + 1st rounder
Toronto draft Anthony Bennett with the Kings pick
Lowry/Fredette/PG
DeRozan/Ross
Gay/Bennett/Fields
Amir/Acy
Val/J.Thompsons/Gray
Bargs/Kleiza for Thompson/Jimmer alone I would be all over except I don't see Sacramento doing the same due to money and Kleiza cannot play.
