NextImg:How Kevin Love chirped Aaron Rodgers during Heat’s Game 1 win vs. Knicks

Kevin Love wants Aaron Rodgers to keep track of his stats.

As the Heat celebrated their 108-101 victory over the Knicks in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series on Sunday, Love allegedly trash-talked the Jets’ new quarterback, who watched courtside at Madison Square Garden.

“I told Aaron Rodgers I’ve got the best QBR in New York City,” the Miami forward, 34, said, according to the Sun Sentinel.

During the second half of the series-opening matchup, Love — who signed with the Heat in February after a contract buyout with the Cavaliers — launched the ball downcourt to create fast breaks for Miami as they took control of the game in the third quarter.

He recorded nine points, five rebounds and four assists in Sunday’s win.

Although it remains to be seen if Rodgers, 39, will be in attendance Tuesday, the Garden has already become the quarterback’s second home.

Prior to Sunday’s Knicks game, the four-time league MVP — who was traded to the Jets by the Packers last Monday in a highly anticipated move — joined his new teammates to watch the Rangers dominate the Devils, 5-2, in Game 6 of their first-round NHL playoff series.

The Garden faithful showered Rodgers with cheers and applause when he was featured on the Jumbotron.

The Jets officially introduced Rodgers as their new quarterback on Wednesday at a press conference.

The quarterback, who spent the first 18 seasons of his career in Green Bay, made it clear he wants to bring a championship to the New York franchise, which last won the Super Bowl in 1969.

“I’m an old guy so I want to be part of a team that can win it all,” Rodgers said. “I believe this is a place we can get that done.”

Rodgers won his first and only Super Bowl with the Packers in February 2011.
