Basketball player Kevin Love has been struggling with his offense as of late with many now wondering if Chris Bosh's predictions are now coming true.
Last month, the Miami Heat player and former teammate of superstar baller LeBron James, spoke about Love and the changes you go though when you are teammates with someone like LeBron.
"It's going to be very difficult for him," said Bosh to Bleacher Report. "Even if I was in his corner and I was able to tell him what to expect and what to do, it still doesn't make any difference. You still have to go through things, you still have to figure out things on your own. It's extremely difficult and extremely frustrating. He's going to have to deal with that."
According to the Business Insider, Bosh may have nailed it right on the head. After 13 games, Love seems to be finding it difficult to find his place in the Cavs' offense.
In his interview, Bosh sounded impressed with Love's game play, which has since declined.
"...he's very, very good at using his body to get his shots off and stuff like that. Like I said before, [in Minnesota] he was able to play that game and set guys up. Now, it's like, man, do I go to my move? He's going to have to fight a lot of his instincts," said Bosh.
With a record of 6-7, Love's stats in this season has dropped. From averaging nearly 25 points a game and ranking third in the league's efficiency rating, Love is delivering much lower numbers from a year ago.
The site notes that the basketball player is now averaging 16 points a game with five trips to the line, as opposed to last season's eight.
The decline in his game has not gone unnoticed. Love spoke to ESPN's Dave McMenamin recently and admitted he was still working out his place in the team.
"It's come to a point where I'm just trying to find myself in this offense," said the 26-year-old, after scoring a season-low 10 points against the Spurs. "It's almost related to when you come into the league; usually the guys that dominate the ball so much tend to learn a lot quicker than a guy like myself, a big man. So I'm just trying to find different spots in the offense."
He continued: "I'll just say we're 10 games in, we're looking at different stuff. I need to find myself. I think everybody knew coming in that we'd have to sacrifice, but at some point we're going to need some low-post scoring and some outside shooting."
