Like I said above, Love's not going to have many 30 and 40 point games playing with Lebron and Kyrie like he did in Minny when he was the #1 option.

It's not about ISO's, basketball is a team game even on the defensive end at least for good teams. Post players are expect to be able to provide help when they're perimeter guys get beat. All Love is concerned about is getting in position for the rebound. It's tough to hide a defensive liability in the front court. Carlisle managed to do it for one season when he had a DPOY guy at center and it's not like those guys grow on trees.
