Cleveland Cavaliers veteran Kevin Love today summarized the 2021-22 season in a long post on his personal social media Instagram.
Kevin Love's 14th career season recalls
After experiencing the most frustrating injuries of his career in the 2020-21 season, and dropping out of the U.S. men's basketball team in the summer because he didn't fully recover and wasn't in good shape, many said I was completely finished. Some have even said, "Love should consider retiring as soon as possible..." These remarks even come from people I think I have a lot of respect for, but I never let those comments shake my faith.
I re-evaluate a lot of relationships, but first I take the time to comment on myself in the mirror. I work hard and get this season in good shape, my goal is to be a usable player and my mindset is to help a young team take the next step and help this team build a culture of winning.
Sacrifice pays more than it costs, and in order for this team to have a qualitative leap, I have to make sacrifices, and I haven't complained since I first played as a bench in the NBA 13 years ago, and I'm eager to make a positive impact, as I've always done. I thank JB for trusting me to be the best I can be, as well as for making me realize that we're always more important together than basketball.
Data doesn't lie... So I'm going to list some of them here. As a substitute, I ranked first in the league in double-double totals, breaking the team's record for off-the-bench three-point shooting, hitting 187 three-pointers to lead the team. As for my availability – I lead the team to the front every game, even when I miss a game because of the new crown.
This article may be too vain for some because I 'just' came in second place in the selection of the Best Sixth Man of the Year, but it makes perfect sense for me to win back respect in a league and tournament where I've dedicated my life.
To reiterate – never be swayed by what others say about you, because almost all the time, people can't see things from the perspective of the stadium floor, and many seats in the arena are people who have never ventured to fight on the field.
So keep shining
Keep hungry and thirsty
Whatever they think
Subsequently, the US media TheHoopCentral retweeted the Loafer article and wrote: "Kevin Lofo IG... 100% respect. ”
