2022 NBA Offseason thread

[DJ Fieri]

Sounds like a perfect fit for the Lakers. lol

Until AD, James and Irving are all out with injuries.....LOL.

 

[trojanfan12]

I think if Irving left.....KD would soon follow. As well as Simmons after a season or so to rehab his trade value.

It'd be a total rebuild for the Nets.

They'd have to trade him. He's won't be an FA until 2026.

I know.

The nets are fucking up big time

They know they can’t count on the guy, this doesn’t happen without KDs blessing.

 

[trojanfan12]

I know.

Lakers aside, it would be interesting to see KDs reaction to Kyrie being moved anywhere since KD essentially chose Kyrie over Curry.

The possibility, however remote, of him and Westbrook ending up on the same team again just makes it more fun. lol

 

[DJ Fieri]

KD will be making 53 mill at age 37.

Based on his history......paying in

True.

IF it happened.....AD for Irving most likely.

I understand that the Nets are frustrated with Kyrie.

But you made your bed when you signed him. He has always been the same guy.

It is not time to bail now. Get a full season with Kyrie, KD and Simmons and the Nets have a legit shot at a ring. Be awfully stupid to blow it up because Kyrie is acting like Kyrie.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Irving would have to opt in to his contract for next season.....sign and trade wouldn't work with the Lakers apparently.

Marks made it clear at the season ending press conference he wants everybody available to do their jobs.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Nets fucked up when they hired Nash.

If they had hired Cassell or Ham.....Irving wouldn't be acting like he is now with Nash as the HC.

Of course he does.

But like we have seen play out time and again, the organization loses when they play hardball with stars.

Want to avoid the drama?

Don’t sign players with character issues like Kyrie, Harden, Etc.

When you sign a player with baggage and he acts out, it is on the organization as much as the player.

Trading him for peanuts is a terrible idea. And peanuts is what they will get.

As much as I'd love to swap RW for him....that ain't happening.

AD and a pick isn't peanuts.....and that's what the Lakers would trade to add him. They'd have to.

Talk all the shit you want about RW, it's true. Talk all the shit you want about AD, it isn't true. Because, when healthy he is still an excellent player. And KD would be playing with arguably the best player he has ever played with. And yes I realize his health is questionable, just as KD's is the last few years. And he isn't getting any younger.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Imagine if the Mavs got Beal?

He and Luka would be really nice.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The League season ends June 30th and we already have offseason storylines!!!!!!!!!

 

[Shanemansj13]

Well, the Knicks need a PG and he's about the best they could hope for. The Lakers have James and he and Irving have had success playing together.

If you're talented enough.....teams will put up with your idiosyncrasies.

No doubt they have played together, best possible case for LA considering their situation with Russ...that would be a blessing for them but that is a particular case. Any other team should stay clear of Kryrie

AD and a pick?

Gtfoh.

For starters, that's a even swap at best.

Also, he doesn't want to play with Lebron.

So, you give up AD and a pick for a 1 year rental?

Hell no.

I hope the Clippers stay away from this guy.

He's to hot and cold.

AD has infinitely more trade value than Kyrie Irving despite the health issues.

Lakers would have to be really stupid to make that trade.

Yeah, it isn’t even.

Even if we think AD is done trying to be a good player, AD fits the Laker roster and Kyrie doesn’t at all.

Kyrie, Russ and LeBron?

Good luck!

It's Kyrie.

This could have happened with Phil Jackson, John Wooden, Pat Riley.

His mercurial personality is akin to mania.

He has to be bipolar.
