What are the chances Kevin Love gets dealt. Chris Fedor: “For the Cavs to even consider moving the five-time All-Star, they would have to be blown away. And it’s hard to envision another team being that enamored with Love. Not only is he off to an inefficient start, but he’s been dealing with nagging soreness in his left foot for nearly a month. Given his long history of injuries and his age (30), this latest ailment doesn’t help. Nor does his contract. … This is the NBA. You never say never. The Cavs may very well be unable to recover from this slow start. It’s possible that they stay near the bottom of the standings all season. But however this goes in the next few months, Love is down the list of players they’d want to deal. Untouchables? For the right player, I’m not sure there are any.”
