Again, they didn't want that. They wanted to throw out ridiculous offers so they'd keep him. If they wanted to actually trade him they would have asked for realistic returns.

For you to say the Nets didn't truly want all those player + picks in return for KD must mean you know people in the Nets FO that told you that. So they asked for all those players for KD but they really didn't want that?

I'd ask you post something legit to back up what you've claimed, but I doubt that you can.

Do you still gots the issues with my posting style? You told me that a few weeks ago in one of the NBA threads. Very funny stuff.

Actually Marks told me directly, yes. They knew no one would bite so they could keep KD. He didn't tell you?

Wamu, you're doing your pissy thing again. You're aware this is a message board where we give opinions, right?

When you post like a bitch like this, it's definitely amusing. No issues at all, this makes it more fun for me.

You don’t think if they get a lottery pick this year that they have a much better chance than they did with just AD? Zion, Ingram and a high lottery pick sounds pretty damn good to me for a guy that can’t stay on the floor.

Sure, but how much value is there in being upper middle vs lower middle? If they were bad with AD, they would've had high lottery picks of their own (like Zion was). AD would've left via trade last summer, could've been a S&T at that point or cap space and lottery picks these past few drafts as well.

The pieces they gained so far in the AD trade were De'Andre Hunter (smartly traded to Atlanta with Solomon Hill for Hayes, Walker, Louzada, and Jones) and Dyson Daniels. Ball and 2022 #15 (Mark Williams) got them Graham, Satoransky, and Temple. Hart was traded with a lot of those pieces (Walker, Louzada, Satoransky, and their 2025 first (top 4 protected)) in the McCollum trade. Main asset so far is Ingram, a lot of the rest and 2 firsts, 2 seconds ultimately netted them McCollum.

Would they have accepted those players if the trade was accepted? Sure. Would they have taken less if they truly wanted to move Durant? Probably.

Oh yeah that's right. If I say something to you that you don't like in your world that means I'm somehow upset. Nothing new at all from you.

But that's the game you like to try and play with me. So why say anything to me to at all when the majority of the time as soon as I respond you get all pissed off and incorrectly say I'm upset? <--pay close attention to that, you do it all the time

And the only bitch here is you. You're trying to play your little games with me again. And once again it's not working.

I didn't say you were upset I said you were pissy. You're doing it again.

OK hoss

It's working really well, obviously.


But if you want to stop being a bitch, maybe next time I give an opinion about a trade offer you don't ask if I heard that directly from the GM in a bitchy manner?

It's funny how often you jump on your custom menstrual cycle and try to run me over. You fail every single time.

I'm saying the Nets wanted too much for KD from the Celtics.

Go ahead and continue to disagree all you want. But you look like a complete fool arguing my point.

And I'm saying they didn't make a bona fide trade offer, for reasons I already explained.

I'm not disagreeing, you don't understand what happened.
But you look like a complete fool arguing my point.
Ironic.

Kings couldn’t miss tonight. Sloppy TO’s and fouls. They got their A+ from SAC, two games in a row. Gotta play better
Yep...thought it might come a little later but we'll see how we handle a losing streak....Garland making a shot would help.

I already asked you this once and you refused to do it. So I'll ask again.

Why won't you post something legit stating what you believe?

Come on man, you're saying the Nets weren't serious about that trade offer. I'm just asking you to back up what you've said. Because you're the only person I have seen claim what you've claimed.

If you can't/won't/refuse to back your claim up that only means one thing. That you're full of shit.

What do you mean 'back up what I've said'? I wasn't claiming some factual thing, it was an opinion why they made such ridiculous offers. In fact right when KD made his trade demand I posted this, that the Nets would pretend to try to trade him with ridiculous offers, so they could sell him on staying, and that he and Kyrie wouldn't go anywhere...and they did exactly what I predicted. I even said they might fire Nash to placate him...and they just did that too.

So in this case my opinion has some real world evidence to back it up. But even if it didn't, so what? It's an opinion. If it's a dumb one like K2T makes, it'll get clowned. If it's a smart one like this one, it'll be proven correct...like it was.

Someday you'll realize this is a site where we give opinions. Or maybe not. It's all good, Wamu. You serve your purpose.

:laugh3:


Lately you've been on one helluva roll. You realize this is now like three weeks in a row you've decided to have the issues with something I've said?

You started doing that shortly after you said you don't like my posting style. One of the funniest things ever said on this site.

About once a week you decide you have some kinda problem with something I say. Maybe you're cranky because of the Warriors bad start? Anyway I look forward to whatever you're issue will be with me next week.

Enjoy the rest of the day.

You're just spinning out now. None of that is true. But it's all good, and I've been enjoying the day so far...

Not spinning anything. You now seemingly have some kinda problem with something I say about once a week. You got all of this started. So I'll ask, are you finally done?

Show me. This is false.

Today doesn't even count, you're the one that got pissy about my opinion today.

No it's the other way around.

You're the one that gots the issues with what I said.

And you're trying to say I'm spinning things. What a good laugh.
