To Dallas: Kyrie Irving

To Brooklyn: Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith, 2027 first round pick and multiple second round picks

Thoughts?

Didn't realize at first that it was an actual trade.

I’m just glad that the Lakers didn’t get better.

I like the Nets return on Kyrie since he was an issue there. They’re saying that the Nets might be looking at another move.

The Nets become the most recent franchise to be a cancer survivor.

I imagine they were sick to death of his sideshow and craziness.

Rhett’s had a couple solid articles for iPacers in the last month.

As far as shooting guards go, that is such a weak class. Never even heard of like half of those guys.

I don't think those lists are complete. Where's Jalen McDaniels? Are people with expiring contracts not listed?

Those lists are players that are free agents at this exact moment, not lists of players that will be free agents this summer.

Correct that was why I posted them because the Pacers can replace Ibaka from this pool. Unfortunately the other recent waived players aren’t all listed here yet like I was hoping.

Unfortunately a lot of these are newly traded or locked up for rest of this year. I guess the Pacers couldn’t get another forward other than Nwora.

I've been told by bankruptcy lawyers that if you only have a few creditors, it is usually possible to negotiate a solution without filing bankruptcy. the threat of bankruptcy can be enough

Wild they fired him AFTER ASB instead of 5 days ago. Also, they fired him AFTER running a practice today.

Agreed. Seems like either mismanagement, sabotage, or something new happened.

Also, Nate’s son is on the coaching staff there. How awkward is that room gonna be tomorrow?

That's so odd they are keeping him for that reason. I don't know what exactly happened, but i did read about a McMillan rift with Trea Young few weeks ago. I assume it's connected.
