Kevin Love doesn’t want to play a Chris Bosh role on the Cavs. He has publicly stated he needs inside touches to be effective.
LeBron tried to downplay the situation saying it was blown out of proportion and Love will be fine.
“I think we are all going to go through an adjustment and less touches than we would like. Anytime one of us says something it will get blown out of proportion and I think that got blown out of proportion,” James said following practice on Friday. “I read the clips of what he stressed. The first thing you see is Kevin Love wants more touches and is unhappy, but I’ve had zero reaction.”
“He will get his touches,” James said. “We need him to get his touches in order to be successful both inside and outside.”
Love spent a lot of time in preseason hanging out around the three point line, this is what Bosh had warned him about.
We will see how it all shakes out.
