(VIDEO) Kevin Love Talks Championship, Working Out In Utah, His Shoulder, And Paddleboarding

Hey Kev, how was Utah and training at 7,000 feet above sea level? Did you learn anything cool?

Kev: Yeah, watch this.

This video trailer comes via The Players Tribune and chronicles Kevin Love’s summer of training and rehabbing his shoulder. The full video gets released tomorrow (which we’ll post here as well) and seems like it’ll must-see TV.

Like I’ve said before, the things I find most interesting about sports are the behind the scenes stuff. I want to see the locker room speeches, hear the players mic’ed up on the sidelines, or see the players practicing or working out. The games are obviously the best part, but I’m particularly drawn to what happens when the games aren’t going on.

“Moving forward, I think everybody on our team 1-15, 1-14, 1-13… we feel like we have unfinished business and that’s to win a championship and hoist the Larry O’Brien trophy”

I just got irrationally excited for this Cavs season.

PS- Look at my man here repping 70s like it ain’t no thing. I see you, Kev.

UPDATE: Here’s Episode 2. Kevin goes hiking!

JR Smith Crossed Up Paul George And Made Him Fall On His Ass

Do it to ’em, Earl!! JR Smith continued his run as the best preseason basketball player ever last night when he crossed up Paul George in the Cavs loss to the Pacers. Pretty sure the Cavs are going to go winless this preseason but whatever. If JR is eating cotton candy, making halfcourt shots, or murdering dudes ankles, then that’s worth the price of admission.

Being that this is Paul George, I bet Pacers fans everywhere pooped their pants when he fell down. Good thing he’s still alive and able to walk.

But seriously. Hey Paul, how’s that transition to power forward going?

God I hope I never get crossed like that on a basketball court. My worst fear, really.

JR Smith Bought Some Cotton Candy In The Middle Of The Cavs Preseason Game

JR gonna JR.

JR Smith continues to dominate this preseason. First he was making halfcourt shots (toe was on the line though) to win a military family $30,000.

Now he’s crushing cotton candy like he’s a 4 year old attending the circus with his parents. He’s inactive tonight so we don’t have to worry about a sugar high affecting his game.

I said it from the moment the Cavs traded for him last season- JR Smith is every blogger’s dream.

C’mon dude, share some with Mozgov. He looks hungry.
