It’s the middle of the NBA Finals, but there are already questions regarding players on the Cleveland Cavaliers future, especially regarding Kevin Love.
What will happen with Love probably depends on what LeBron James decides to do. If James comes back, good chance so will Love. On the flip side, if James leaves, the Cavaliers could look to trade the All-Star big man.
Kevin Love was asked about staying in Cleveland during Thursday’s media availability, and Love gave a very honest answer. He wants to stay and win in Cleveland, but he knows this is a business and anything could happen.
“I’ve always said I wanted to be here, I wanted to win here, but as you know it’s probably going to come up, it always does. It’s good to be wanted, but at the same time it’s going to be interesting to see what happens, you just don’t know. There has been so much overhaul and so many things that have happened this year, particularly with our team. that you just don’t know. When July comes and free agency hits there could be something interesting that comes up for this team, and knowing it’s a business…you just have to take it in stride..keep my mouth shut, go about my business, work, and be prepared for this team next year.”
There is a chance that if James does decide to leave that the Cavaliers could decide to try and build around Love, but that seems unlikely.
There is still some unfinished business for the Cavs to worry about this year. They are down 3-0 in the series, but anything can happen and they need Love and the rest of the team to fight until that final buzzer sounds on their season.
