Flip Saunders says Kevin Love has not asked to be traded

In response to a tweet from Hall of Fame sports columnist Peter Vecsey in which he indicated that Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Love told the team before the All-Star break that he would opt out of his contract in the summer of 2015 and sign with another team, the T-Wolves' president of basketball operations countered with a tweet of his own.

"Rumors of Love telling me he's opting out & wants 2 b traded r false. Last convo I had w/ him was him telling me how bad my sports coat was."
