BTW, the Lakers have not signed any FAs from last year's roster to date. Bazemore just signed a deal with the Kings. Bye-Bye!

His presence will be missed

There's a lack of accountability that's pretty jarring... KD wanted Kyrie, KD wanted Nash, Marks catered to KD heavily...

... yet everyone else is the problem and should be removed.

Yep.

 

[DJ]

Lebron has never done no hoe shit like that.

I get wanting Nash gone. He’s fucking awful.

But, being mad because the GM decided to grow a spine?

Gtfoh

Yeah.....by all accounts Marks has done a good job in BK. EXCEPT signing KD AND Irving but who would have guessed this would have happened?

Phil would have had his hands full in Brooklyn....LOL.

Phil would have quit, and he dealt with Rodman.

BREAKING REPORT: Details Of Kevin Durant's Meeting With Brooklyn Nets Owner Joe Tsai

Shams Charania of The Athletic, reported details of the meeting between Kevin Durant and Brooklyn Nets' owner Joe Tsai.

Pretty sad really. KD is just too emo for his own good, all that talent and it's going to be squandered. Great career but could have been so much more.

If all he had done is say 'ok I made a mistake with Nash (because even he can see Nash is overmatched)' then fine, Nets find another coach and they run it back. And they would be contenders.

But to ask for Marks' head, after he did everything KD wanted, that's just bullshit. Marks is a terrific GM.

Probably.....LOL.

KD is not good enough to be making demands anymore. He is an old injury prone player at this point with 0 leverage, that hasn't proven he can be a leader of a team anywhere.

NBA management needs to start stomping heads and restricting rights again.

The players have shown they can't handle the responsibility of being an adult and professional. Throwing tantrums and giving ultimatums are not what adults do.

Nash will get the blame, but it isn't his fault Irving didn't play and KD can't stay healthy.

Agreed, good post. That said, Nash is in over his head. So while it's not his fault all this drama, he shouldn't be the guy coaching.

I could see him wanting Nash fired but both?

Needs to stop it.

lol

Phil would be walking out of the facility shaking his head and muttering ''There isn't enough sage in the world to burn and get this much crazy out''.

Hopefully, like when Kobe wanted out, cooler heads prevail. Maybe he will be satisfied with just firing Nash.

I don't think he would be....just a hunch.

After his statement, I doubt he fires either one.

Also sounds like he's getting fed up with all the bullshit.

I think he should trade them both to the Kings. They actually have some talent to give and maybe KD and Irving together would be better than the GMs they have had.

The Kings would still go like 37-45 to 39-43.

That wasn’t a mistake.

It was a gamble every single GM in the league would have made.

Just looks like it didn’t pay off.
