L.O.N. — The Irrelevant Kevin Love

Tyrone Nesby knows what it is.

by Shannon Booher / @TheRealSJB

Line Of The Night:

Kevin Love — 31 points, 31 boards, 5 assists, 1 Kevin Loveblock

Who cares? What about the Heat? Sorry, that’s what goes down with the TWolves and the Knicks. It might be fun, but it ain’t important.

Michael And Scottie Volume II Of The Night:

Get your shots in now. This is Michael and Scottie Volume II. Who cares what Bosh does? He’ll either buy himself a set of goggles and Horace Grant it, die his hair and Rodman it, or Charles Oakley it and get traded away. Doesn’t matter. These cats are nine games in. The Breakfast Club has not been established. Get your shots on now, Yahoo dude. Get your shots in now, Twitter. Because give it 20? 30? hell, maybe 120? And IT’S OVER. Word to Kenny and Vince. GET. YOUR. SHOTS. IN. NOW. ‘Cause it’s easy now… but then you’ll need to hide your kids, hide your wife.

Near Beast Of The Night:

Blake Griffin — 18 points, 18 boards, 4 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal

Loss. We are not sure if he is a culture changer… those are hard to come by, and the Clippers culture is a hard one to right.

Cancer Of The Night:

Charlie Villanueva — 30 points, 1 board, 1 assist, 1 steal

Love ya like a play cousin, Charlie, but tweet-snitching ain’t cool. We respect your plight, but KG won. He doesn’t make it personal, but you did, and that explains everything. Keep it moving, and keep balling on the Clippers. Call us when your GM gets a clue and you can beat teams that AREN’T the worst franchises in sports.

Regrets Of The Night:

Vince Carter — 10 points, 4 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals

Orlando lost to Toronto at home. Y’all are telling us it is not a plausible scenario that Vince feels bad about the whole Toronto thing, and he didn’t throw this game? We are whispering so Dean can’t hear us, but you know it’s in play.

Maybe You Are Feeling Yourself… Just A Little Too Much:

Russell Westbrook — 36 points, 7 assists, 7 boards, 3 steals, 2 blocks

Yes, you ended it. Game-closer, cuffed the lay-up, even. But look to your left. THAT’s that dude. His name is Kevin. He’s too respectful to take your shine, but it’s his team. Calm down. Let the game come to you. You don’t want to Kobe/Shaq this thing, do you?

Tyrone Nesby, Keon Clark, Kevin Gaines and Brandon Smith. And we’re out.

Drops mic…

    It’s only nine games in, but the Heat flaws are legit. Yes they are correctable , but ignoring them because it’s early is a little shortsighted.

    agreed

    Was wondering when one of you slammers would reference “hide yo kids, hide yo wife (the remix)” in an article. Nice one, SB.

    Disagreed about the Westbrook thing, if Durant doesn’t love having a second banana then he’s crazy. Russell abused Wes Matthews and Miller all night, and passed it to KD for 3 key buckets in the 4th. If that’s not balance, I don’t know what is.

    Good &$*%, SLAM with the LON. Very heady stuff. Props due to KLove, the Heat struggles, but the Thunder bit, Durant and Westbrook could be Kobe/Shaq part 2? I’m not so sure about THAT. Interesting angle because I can’t see that happening. But it’s not impossible. Again, heady stuff, SLAM.

    Durant was a beast against Portland & had his best game of the season so far but Westbrook has been OKC’s best player thus far this season. It may be KD’ team but Westbrook is a legit 1b and is free to feel himself when needs be

  • http://slamonline.com Ugh

    I still don’t know which is fun and which is important.

  • Drew

    KD’s personality allows for RW to shine on the same team. These 2 together is a serious match made.
