East Conf. Finals - Game 3: Boston Celtics 86-116 Cleveland Cavaliers - Cavaliers' Player Ratings

Kevin Love - 7/10

Kevin Love

Stat line: 13 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 turnovers on 4-of-12 shooting (1-4 3s)

All-Star Kevin Love did his bit but can certainly do a lot more.

Other than his double-digit rebounding numbers, the rest of numbers are quite below par. He can score more, 4 turnovers are far too much for how less he handles the ball and he can be better than 4-of-12 shooting. He's got to be more effective on his post-ups. Right now he's hitting the front of the rim on a lot of his hook shots. Not only does it look really bad but if he gets better in the post, it allows LeBron to rest more on those possessions with the Celtics needing to pay attention to Love..

There was no real issue with him defensively in the first two games of this series but when the rest of the team stepped it up on this end in Game 3, to his credit, he brought it as well.
