Kevin Love losing patience with Minnesota Timberwolves' woeful ways - ESPN Los Angeles
So you sign an extension, then complain about your team? 
Kevin Love just signed an extension earlier this year, but unless the Timberwolves start winning, his long-term future might not be in Minnesota.
The forward, who was recently selected for his first Team USA Olympic appearance, expressed his frustration with the direction of the Timberwolves in an interview with Yahoo! Sports, saying, "I'm not afraid to go on the record" about his feelings.
Love, who agreed to a four-year, $62 million extension with the Timberwolves in January, averaged 26.0 points and 13.3 rebounds for Minnesota last season. But the 23-year-old Love is the only member of the 2012 U.S. Olympic team who doesn't have an NBA playoff appearance on his résumé.
"My patience is not high," Love told Yahoo! Sports. "Would yours be, especially when I'm a big proponent of greatness surrounding itself with greatness? All these (Team USA) guys seem to have great players around them.
"It's tough seeing all these guys that are young and older who have all played in the playoffs. When they start talking about that, I have nothing to talk about. If I don't make the playoffs next year, I don't know what will happen."
