The situation of Kevin Love is getting more and more attention. Though the Cavaliers star denied reports that he is frustrated with his teammates and the club, it seems that not all is smooth in Cleveland.

NBA analyst Bill Simmons offered his own view on the situation on Twitter, saying that Love is pulling “The Carmelo” because he wants to play for a contender after signing a lucrative deal with a dead-end or rebuilding team.

The Cavs are currently 13th in the East with 10 wins and 25 losses and haven’t seen the playoffs since LeBron James left the team for the Lakers in the summer of 2018.
