Yesterday, T’Wolves owner Glen Taylor through some unceremonious parting shots at the direction of Kevin Love following the trade to Cleveland. Naturally, Taylor is bitter and upset that Love wanted out.
This morning, Love was a guest on ESPN’s Mike & Mike and he was played the audio of Taylor’s criticisms of his game. Love chose to take the high road with his response, although he would’ve been in bounds if he took a few digs of his own.
Love, appearing on ESPN Radio’s “Mike & Mike” on Wednesday morning, responded to comments made by Taylor, who said Tuesday that the All-Star forward may get exposed for his play on the defensive end and may wind up being the scapegoat if the new-look Cavs struggle.
“I think emotions are definitely running high right now,” Love told “Mike & Mike.” “For Glen to say that, I just think that he should be focusing on the players that he just received. I mean, he has two of the No. 1 picks in the last two drafts: Andrew Wiggins and Anthony Bennett. He has another guy who can really play in Thaddeus Young.
“I think he got a lot for me. So I’d be focusing even more on that. More than anything, I’m just excited to start my time in Cleveland, get to work with my new teammates, and start with this new family here.
