Kevin Love accuses Kelly Olynyk of intentional injury

The Cleveland Cavaliers advanced to the second round of the NBA playoffs Sunday with a 101-93 win over the Celtics, but star forward Kevin Love was forced to leave Game 4 after suffering an apparent dislocated shoulder. Love was battling for a rebound with Kelly Olynyk, who had Love in an arm-bar, pulled Love away from the ball, causing the injury. Love immediately ran to the locker room.

Love did not return to the game, and said after the win that he believed it was a dirty play by Olynyk.
