If kyrie didnt do what he supposed to do, you don't think this would have been leaked by now to throw more dirt on him? Use common sense
Common sense says they don’t want him but they’re stuck with him because nobody else wants him either. Kyrie fucked himself and Nets are using the leverage he created to tell him to fuck off.

When players have money coming Irving is the last guy they will let get in the way of that.

When you're only attracting guys that are chasing top dollar instead of winning programs, you get the wrong type of free agents. They usually end up 2s and 3s getting paid like 1s.

Nets are stuck financially. They really need to move Kyrie for something...anything that they can build from going forward.

Russ doesn't help from that standpoint because they can't sign anyone else under the cap.

60 mil to Joe Harris and Ben Simmons.

More likely than not they're going to have to blow it up and move KD

Knicks handed the jazz their first home loss

fluke win for Knicks …

watch for them to be blown out in Denver without Jokic, bet the house.

That’s Knick basketball.

Lakers might entertain trading for Kyrie if future 1sts aren't attached, who knows. I'm sure they would be in on KD if they could even move the needle vs other trade offers lol.

Yeah. I’d probably say yes to a threesome with Kate Upton and Selena Gomez.

AD wouldn't be the worst player to get in return as the base of a trade package if they move KD. Not sure the Lakers would go there, as that would shorten their possible window (AD's remaining years vs KD's remaining years) and would likely make those future picks even more valuable in trade (and they've been holding those precious already).

If they’re trading KD why are they going with a broken down star that’s older now and always injured? Lakers delusions are why I keep coming back to this forum. Never fails to entertain.

There are a bunch of teams Kyrie the pariah will never get traded to now, and for obvious reasons which we really don’t have to get into at this point. However, I do see a possible landing spot for him with 1 of the teams in Texas not named the Mavs.
That is, providing they wouldn’t mind taking on all the baggage that comes with him .

He’s a horrible fit with both the Spurs and Rockets.

I said "if they had a package that would even move the needle" and that it wouldn't be the worst offer. Never said it was likely whatsoever.

Baggage meaning he can totally destroy your franchise

It’s definitely been a crazy thing to watch unfold these last few seasons for that team.....and only because of 1 selfish and ignorant player.
Harden had a role too but mainly because of Irving
