Nuggets coach George Karl spoke highly of (Kevin) Love, who averages 21.2 points and 14.2 rebounds per game and, at least in previous years, showed he can sling the 3.

“I think his style and his numbers are Larry Bird-ish,” Karl said. “Larry Bird won every night he played; he was an impressive winner, and Kevin, that’s what I think he’s searching for, that winning locker room, that winning team that has a chance to be a playoff contender.”
