Kyrie out again due to personal reasons.

I'm sorry if a family member/friend isn't dying, there is absolutely no reason for a player to be out 3 different times due to personal reasons.

They were all spaced out as well

Nope he should be heavily fined

Good win for the Celtics today. Wasn't able to watch it, all Nuggets games are blacked out here for a second year in a row. How did they look? Was it good D that shut the Nuggets offense down or just bad shooting?

I would never cheer for a Celtics win, but I will cheer for a Nuggets loss

Come on dammit! Can't you root for the Celtics once? Already mentioned earlier today I was rooting for your Lakers to beat Nets last night. It didn't feel right and it kinda put a damper on the evening. But that's how much I dislike the Nets 3 stooges.

The Nuggets just don't move the hate needle like the Nets this year.

Pretty sure even Lakers fans will be pulling for you guys when you play them.

I wonder what playoff version the Nets will get outta Kyrie. He quit on the Celtics on the way outta town when he played some of the worst basketball of his career during that playoff series against the Bucks two seasons ago.

Once the playoffs start will he be happy with being the teams 3rd offensive option? Because if his head is somewhere else for a series it could be trouble for the Nets.

It’s not like he is the only guy on that team whose head might be elsewhere. Aldridge might prove very valuable there.

Kyrie and Aldridge aren't on the same level as far as impact on the floor. But the Aldridge pick up made a damn good team even better.

Patrick McCaw was waived by the Raptors. With his championship experience only a matter of time before a playoff caliber team picks him up.

Maybe Embiid or someone will say something mean to him and he'll miss the rest of the playoffs for "personal reasons"?

The bold is where the issue is, imo. If there is something ongoing that is serious enough for him to have to interrupt his season 3 times...it's likely serious enough for him to just take a leave of absence and go deal with it.

I would bet all it is is stuff going on in the world. This dude is not working with anything close to a full deck.
