Love Brushes Off James' Contraction Comments

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Minnesota forward Kevin Love brushed off LeBron James' recent comments that the NBA would be better off if it eliminated teams so more stars could play together.

James mentioned Love as an example of one player he wanted to see playing on a team other than the Timberwolves, who went into their game Sunday night against Cleveland with a 6-24 record.

Love said: "That was just something he said. I didn't really pay too much attention to it. I just figure that when the time comes with the CBA (collective bargaining agreement), the owners and players and everybody involved will make their decision. I didn't really think much of it."
