Kevin Love has not requested a trade

The Cavs veteran has not requested a trade at this time.

The Cleveland Cavaliers may end up trading Kevin Love this offseason, but a trade request has not been made according to reports. Sam Amico of Hoops Wire reported last week that the Cavs will attempt to facilitate a trade of Love prior to next season. Amico also added that Love has not requested a trade at this time.

The fact of the matter is that the Cavs have needed to move on from Kevin Love for some time. Not only because the team is one of the worst in the league, but the Cavaliers need to finally close the book on their runs to The Finals. It really seems like the team is trying to cling to what was rather than realizing they are no longer close to being anything resembling a good basketball team.

It is beyond time to separate and move on. Cleveland needs to do good by one of the key players during their four seasons of contention and let him go to a team of his desire. Whether that is by trading Kevin Love or buying him out, it is best if both parties go their separate ways.
