I understand he is in hot water.
LeBron might do Westbrook for Kyrie.
In a heartbeat. Defense would be a problem, but we would get out of Lowry's contract next year. From what I'm reading, Vic is healthy and will be debuting this week. Him remaining healthy would be a plus from a defensive perspective. If you are talking about strictly basketball, you can't pass up a chance to get Kyrie and get out of a bad contract.
Problem is the Nets say no and then you hear the dial tone. They can get more value for Kyrie by having him play than to trade him for our inferior players on worse contracts. The Nets with all of there dysfunctions are what 3 games better than us? We had people here call the Nets a dumpster fire, saying that a team needs to save KD from that losing team, what does that tell us about our own team which is worse? It also might explains just why Butler has been so passive this season minus the Boston game.
Its an interesting topic to be honest, jimmy is somewhat disinterested in some games almost expecting that the team should be in a better position offensively. He almost justifies it as, well Bam is rolling, and Herro can score, we got some decent talent that is home grown why should I need to carry the burden all year. Regardless of what he gets paid, he justify the salary for the years and work already put into the game of basketball as a whole. Unfortunately some players look at their salaries that way, not that they need to perform for what they got paid for but as a result of the work already completed as in a back pay. He does have the I don't need to show anyone what I can accomplish, just get me to the playoffs, and if you cannot then this team isn't worthy of my hard work.
