Wow. You think KD turned that down? Is there something between KD and CP3? I think that could have worked.
I guess everyone and their mom thinks CP3 is done but like you, I think that is a picture perfect fit. Not great for the future but still

I believe this is Kyrie's first appearance on a Western conference team?

I get 46 3’s instead a lot in 5 weeks but finally starting to see consistency. His shot is looking much better

It also sounds like the Lakers did offer both picks

They can cut him after this year for only 15 million. Or they can keep him for 23-24 at 30 million and then get out of the deal in 24-25 free and clear with no cap and no more guaranteed money left.

Much more diverse. One dude punched a horse. Another dude ate shit. They just had 16 people fall through a glass topped bus depot. That’s just the last 5 years. We haven’t even done batteries at JD Drew or cheering while Michael Irvin lay on the turf.

Well shit, I stand corrected.

Congrats on the growth.

Which is the most likely of these 3 scenarios:

1) Kyrie stays sane

2) Gordon Hayward stays healthy

3) Ben Simmons remembers how to play basketball










(the answer might be green zero lol)

I read a story not sure if it was true or not, that after the year the Cavs won the Championship he was mad about something and didn't participate or talk to anyone on the team for the entire season. So even in his "sane" years he was still kinda crazy.

Pretty sure that's true, but I think it may have been with the Celtics.

Not positive though.

Still doesn’t explain why he didn’t take the PHX offer

So you think a Kyrie rental is worth more the 3 players that got to them to the WCF plus the picks? How does Luka feel when this blows up on their faces? He gone.

Not necessarily. I agree with @tlance it shows they're trying.

If it blows up, it blows up. But they took a big swing.

It may not keep him from leaving, but it gives him more to think about if he considers leaving.
