“I didn’t know Kevin Love got traded until yesterday,” Martin said with a straight face at Monday’s annual media day at Target Center that preceded a midnight start to training camp in Mankato. “I’m not big on looking at blogs and all that.”
My 6 year old who doesn't read blogs (or anything outside of level 1 reading books) and isn't even allowed to go on the internet unless she's on the Disney site and she knew about the Love trade. My mother-in-law from Miami who can only name 3 members of the Heat knew about Love joining LeBron. So I refuse to believe Martin didn't know about the Love trade unless he literally was living under a rock but considering Martin lives in Ohio during the summer, I'm not even buying the rock story.
Then again, I'm always hearing stories about women who didn't know they were pregnant until they gave birth...I think I spend too much time on blogs and all that.
I also know that Martin was kidding.
Yes, folks. Kevin Martin was kidding. "Just had to break the ice of media day with a good laugh!" he says in text - http://t.co/DHbByxd7NF

Unable to reach an agreement, the Oklahoma City Thunder has officially agreed to trade their 6th Man of the Year, James Harden, to the Houston Rockets.
Harden, who felt he deserved the league maximum of four years, $60 Million, turned down a four-year, $52 Million extension with Oklahoma City Saturday night.
Houston didn't waste no time, as they have agreed to meet the All-Star's wishes by giving him a max deal no later than Wednesday, right before Harden officially becomes a free agent.
In exchange for Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb, and two future first-round picks, the Thunder are sending away James Harden, Daequan Cook, Lazar Hayward, and Cole Adrich.
Harden, who only started 7 times, dominated off the bench, averaging 16.8 points and 4.1 rebounds last season, while being one of the key players for OKC in the 2012 NBA Finals.
"We were unable to reach a mutual agreement, and therefore executed a trade that capitalized on the opportunity to bring in a player of Kevin's caliber, a young talent like Jeremy and draft picks, which will be important to our organizational goal of a sustainable team." Thunder general manager Sam Presti said.
It's always business and never personal... Right?
