Though Kevin Love and Flip Saunders continue to shoot down reports that Love wants out of Minnesota, it’s no secret that he’s gearing up to leave the Timberwolves. The latest reports say Love has requested a trade and if he doesn’t get one, he will leave during free agency next year. He reportedly has these two teams on his radar.
The first team is a no brainer. Discussions about Kevin Love joining the Los Angeles Lakers have been going on for some time now. His other choice is reportedly the Knicks.
