“Right now, there’s probably people calling Kevin Love “soft” and those people are idiots”.
Golden State big man Andrew Bogut – an ingenious basketball goon, by the way – came to his frontcourt counterpart’s defense on Thursday while discussing the risky nature of playing through concussion-like symptoms. The first two games seemed to be very disappointing for the Cavaliers since they are expected to be a better team with their “Big Three” healthy. But sources said he’s been informed that Friday’s Game 4 is the earliest he’ll be considered for a return. “And you won’t give a [expletive] about what you did in 2016”. Teammates said Love, who took an elbow to the head in Game 2, was extremely frustrated he couldn’t play. He continues to progress and has not experienced any setbacks while completing the steps of the league’s concussion protocol.A final decision on his status will come closer to game time. When he tried it from a hardwired connection, he passed the test and was allowed to return to the court.
