Exciting News (NOT) about Kevin Love
In case anyone still cares, Stephen A. Smith says Kevin Love may have let it be known that he only wants to go to Cleveland. Between the nature of that news, the tentative nature of the report, and the unreliability of the guy who's spewing it, I already wish I hadn't posted it. I won't blame anyone if this thread somehow implodes sooner rather than later.
Sorry about the green type. There's something strange going on with the gratuitous changes in color being perpetrated by the forum.

Stephen A. Smith: From what my sources told me just yesterday, and I don’t know whether this is true or not so I don’t have it locked down, but I’m hearing that Kevin Love is basically telling other teams 'Don’t bother bringing me long-term because once my contract is up, if I have to serve this last year in Minnesota, I'm going to Cleveland. The man apparently wants to play with LeBron James." ESPN.com

Ray Allen is also leaning toward Clvd.

Report: Knicks Offered Amar'e Stoudemire, Iman Shumpert, Tim Hardaway Jr. To Wolves For Kevin Love
Jul 26, 2014 12:54 AM EDT
The New York Knicks recently offered the Minnesota Timberwolves a package of Amar'e Stoudemire, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Iman Shumpert for Kevin Love, according to a source.
The Timberwolves reportedly declined the offer.
Hardaway has good value around the NBA, but Shumpert could be in line for a raise once his rookie contract ends and Stoudemire has one season left on his big contract.
The Knicks could offer Love a maximum contract if he becomes a free agent next offseason.

MY NOTE: In what alternative universe would such an offer be even remotely considered competitive?

well in fairness Phil did offer to send his vast collection of books for the Timberwolves players to read and contemplate as well.

Re: Exciting News (NOT) about Kevin Love
The real skinny is that both Shumpert and Hardaway, once their rookie contracts expire, will be demanding max contracts along with the Wolves' trainer and the guy at the first pizza stand on the left as you enter the arena.

Bob,
You read it wrong. That's maximum contact, not contract. You're in constant contact with the best basketball fans in the world. Now isn't that worth a lot more than a max contract?
