Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star forward Kevin Love was in a sour mood and feeling exhausted on Sunday, as he struggled in a 114-99 loss the surging Brooklyn Nets. Love thinks the Nets — winners of 13 straight at home, tying a franchise record — aren’t a total disaster only because of the weak conference they play in. Per the NY Post:

Love has a reason to be grumpy. Would be a playoff team is his team was in the Eastern Conference. In West, they're in 10th and not close.
