When Kevin Love Dropped 31 PTS & 31 REB 👀 

Having a career night against the Knicks is just NBA tradition

Kevin Love is a prime example of making sacrifices to win a championship

People forget how good he was in his prime

Minnesota Love was just one of the best bigs of the league.

Man averaged 26/13/4 one season with great shooting. Kevin Love was great on the Timberwolves

Minny Love was a legit All-NBA caliber player and one of the best bigs in the league. An all-time great rebounder, an efficient scorer out of the post, who could also pass and shoot middies and threes at a good clip. His defense was subpar but he wasn't a liability on that end (at least in an era without today's level of switching and pullup shooting). I remember him, Blake, and LMA as the best PFs in the league around 2012-2014. A lot of people only started watching him in Cleveland after he slimmed down, and playing as a third option took away half his offensive game while highlighting his defensive weaknesses. They never got to see this version of him, his vacuum machine rebounding, full face-up game, or high-post passing. Only the slow-footed spotup big man getting roasted by speedy guards. It's easy to think that he was always that player and not much more. He wasn't. Any Timberwolves fan will tell you that much. I don't think history will be kind to Kevin Love, but at least I know what his peak looked like. The heart and soul of an era in Minnesota, dominating bygone times that will never come back. I miss the guy a lot.

This game wasn’t on local TV in Minneapolis. My roommate and I made a last minute decision to go to the game. Got cheap tickets and snuck down by the court (middle of the week in super cold with two really bad teams). Best random decision I’ve ever made. What a great performance to see live.

I forgot how different a game of basketball looked like even not that long ago...

Those were legit rebounds also. Not cherry picked or gifted by teammates.

Wolves K.Love was a different animal, yet the same beast. Such a forgotten Prime.

One of the most underrated star of NBA

I didn't knew that Kevin Love was that damn good

I remember this game. This is probably Love's greatest highlight.

Michael Beasley's first year in Minny he was really starting to develop into something like we saw at KSU, after that sheesh....dude had all the talent in the world.

Image westbrook and kevin love on the same team, going for free defensive rebound. "finally a worth opponent. Our battle will be legendary"

Kevin Love was a monster on the boards at that time, it was a pleasure to watch even though Minnesota didn't achieve anything great with that roster. Unfortunately, Love then became a pretty boring three point shooter (like almost every big in the League) as his career went on and on.

Classic game Ill performance from K. Love

Loved kevin love was big like this and that whole core was mad fun to play with in 2k

When you drop more rebounds than points people assume you are just a rebounder, but Kevin Love was a beast

Kevin love is so underrated

how can Imagine if Prime Kevin Love with LBJ and Irving 🔥

He was a beast! Injuries are no joke

This stat is so difficult to replicate and so under appreciated.

Watch it before he becomes the x factor for miami championship 2023

One of the most insane performance of all time

man basketball looked so much better those days

This was the version of KL that i became a fan.

prime Kevin love was so good bruh

There is reason why K love is a Olympic gold medallist and he helped lebron with a championship in 2016

History always being made on the knicks lol

Wolves K.Love was a different Beast.

reason i always try to be teammates with love in mycareer, guy is great rebounder and shooter

When Kevin Love dominated the nba.. the best 40 win team ever 😅

Kevin Love Minnesota UNSTOPPABLE 🔥💪💪

Such a weird player, not only one of the best shooting bigs in the league but also one of the best offensive rebounders in the league

I've been waiting for this 30 for 30

He was in hall of fame mode

That double dribble was right infront of the ref

What a performance

My favorite player! Still though!

Crazy because I just watched this yesterday and y’all drop it today?😭😭

How many records have been dropped on the Knicks? I wonder what team leads the league in records dropped on them.

Kevin Love was so good, and to sacrifice stats to get a ring is him being unselfish as well. He spent 6 years in Minnesota and wanted a chip, can't blame him

LOVE IS JUST WCUBA LEVEL

Darko Milicic in the background wondering what went wrong lol

Prime Love needs an NBA 2K23 card

I get notifications of the score for all the 4 major sports NY teams every quarter/period/3 innings. I usually just peek and clear it. The final score came in as I was getting off the train after working late, and it had Kevin Love's stat line right under it. I was thinking to myself that had to be a typo. As I get on the escalator I click on it and sure enough there it was detailed. I remember saying to myself "who the hell was guarding Kevin Love tonight?!?!"

The chubby kevin love, need to see this in cavs uniform💪

He was a monster I still feel like he should have never lost all that weight it seemed to make him less effective

Prime kevin love

It weird part of me wishes that he still was a number one option, his individual stats would be insane

Boy he was young. High socks Love

This is unreal

this is what inspired espns 30for30

This version of Kevin Love was a beast

Can’t believe this happened 😂

And fans of LeBron made it sound like he's just a role player. Yes, his stats suffered so much after joining Bron but he played like a superstar before joining him.

Cool well played athlete Good teamworks performance Basketball🏀❤🇺🇸

Congrats KEVIN LOVE your the best Timberwolve I’ve seen besides K TOWN ANTHONY EDWARDS AND NEW SUPER STAR RUDY GOBERT AND MINNESOTA IS MY SECOND HOME BESIDES PHILADELPHIA PENNSYLVANIA

3:57 right infront the ref

Good video

man used to a beast

31 rebounds, very impressive

Back when Kevin sported a buzz cut. It always looked like he was about to do dirty work.

Chris Smoove : Kevin Luuuuvvvvvv

An alternative triple double

Man this is the kevin love i first heard about😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Kevin love>

Darko Milicic was on the T-Wolves at this point apparently lol

This was before he broke his hand over a fist pushup

When i see videos claiming the Lebron/Kyrie/Love Cavs "were not a superteam" i laugh my a$$ off. People forget Love was a 26p/13r guy for the Wolves while shooting almost 50/40/85%.

Back when team actually run plays, nowadays everyone just jacking up 3. Team averaging 25 3 a game now

K Love reach Duncan status on the T-Wolves, dude was putting up great numbers on high efficiency every night and it just became the norm so people weren’t talking about it much lol

Try breaking that team rebound record in NBA2K

This was my favorite nba 2k team Wesley Johnson was a cheat code

Put some respect on this man’s name

Might be time to make a big man in 2k

For & To 💗

Jokic before Jokic

When Kevin Love was in Minnesota he seemed like he was 6’10

I miss big K Love :(

I think he also has the most consecutive no of games with a double double.

31 rebs is very impressive

Thicc Kevin Love was diff

I can't believe he dropped 31 rebounds. Mans gotta hold onto that thing

That's why the old saying goes that the 12th man on an NBA team is closer to MJ than the average Joe is to them.

Man look at the score lol. The Wolves needed every point and rebound to win. 💀

Its against the Knicks so its really like 13 and 13 lol

Pride of Lake Oswego 🫡 but I’m from SE so fuck em

Fat K Love was 🔥

Overweight love > Shooter love

Nah cause 31 rebounds is insane💀

Bosh and Love took the same path

CLEVELAND TOOK THIS MAN FROM HIS BREAD AND BUTTER BEING IN THE POST...TO KEEP HIM AT THE 3 PT LINE ALL GAME SMH

Kevin Love played with a true pass first player in Rubio and was a first time ballot hofmer. He went to play with a fake pass first player in LeBron and now he might not make it to the Hof. Lol

why am i just knowing about this rn lol

❤️🌹🙏🏾💪🏾

Dude playing like wilt in 68

People don't know about this Kevin love ... They only want to remember him as a spot up shooter on the cavs

I miss the Wolves when Love and Rubio were the main force.
