Is it weird that my biggest takeaway is why would the Rockets swap Levert for Oladipo?
At the risk of giving their org too much credit, maybe they want to re-sign him and try to resuscitate his stardom and value as a trade asset.

Any word on where/why he went awol?

Was he trying to prove the earth was flat?

It's gonna be like the three stooges.

Dray made KD cry and he skedaddled to Brooklyn. Kyrie's been miserable at every stop of his career. No reason to think his time in Brooklyn will end any different. And the first thing Harden wanted to know about the city of Brooklyn was where all the strip clubs at. Not good. How is this not a recipe for disaster?

To be fair, KD delivered Dray a title
There’s never been a more average player in sports history that has as much to say as Draymond Green

I agree. Seems like this could be one of those deals that sounds good based on name but is it the best fit (for the Nets)?

It is a superstar league. Harden, Kyrie, very hateable players, so the immediate reaction is to assume disaster.

but if you step back for a second, if this comes together in any way, the league better watch out

And ya wonder why NBA ratings continue to go down... Derrick rose, leaves Knick team, no word at time as to why, Kyrie leaves team , political reason?

have to take the game back from the players before it’s too late.

The Sixers reportedly offered Simmons but refused to trade Tyrese Maxey as part of any package. I support that. Maxey looks like a keeper.
Dumb.

Well the Brooklyn trainwreck just got a little worse. On paper KD, Kyrie & Harden sounds like a great idea. But there aren't enought shots in a 48 minute game for those three. Poor Steve Nash. He's gonna get blamed for everything that goes wrong.
Make every game go to double or triple OT?

It won't.....Irving will retire or agree to a trade somewhere else.....KD and Harden can work and they are dangerous......make it to the ECF and probably the Finals.

I agree

I understand the wishful thinking it will be a disaster

if this NBA season survives and the Nets eventually get into form, my money is on them in the East

Now that the Bearded One has been shipped outta Houston I can enjoy watching them play. Well specifically Christian Wood.

I was pissed the Pistons didn't put more effort into trying to keep him.
