Mathurin and Haliburton is a hell of a way to rebuild your franchise. Just imagine if they get Wembiid too.

Utah is 22 seconds away from going to 5-2, with a comeback win over Memphis. Olynyk has been unreal this year.

The Mavs are Sixers level good at choking big lead against random opponents the last few years.

If Doncic has a rough shooting night and doesn't get a couple of calls against good defense he will get tired, frustrated etc and make bad decisions in the end and by the time he starts passing to his shooters it will be too late because they will be cold as ice by just standing around waiting for 10-12 minutes in a row.

Have to give it up to Kyrie for deflecting attention from the Nets losing to the Pavers. You can argue the methods, can't argue the result.imo

Must be fun being the Nets’ PR person.

Ray was a young star who wanted to play his career here and be an ambassador for the organization and city. Still can’t fathom why Kohl sided with a stubborn douche like Karl who had already lost the team.

Eh, back in 2003 many of us were fed up with Ray. He was soft and there were serious concerns with the ankle. We’re judging the deal based on the relative value at the time the trade was made. The Ray trade went on to look much worse, because Ray unbelievably went on to play another 12 years at a high level and healthy. That wasn’t in the expectations book of anyone

Even at the time, trading a 27 year old 3 time all star for a 34 year old Gary Payton is much worse than trading a promising young 21 year old for a 25 year old 2 time all star. Especially when you add in it was entirely predictable at the time that Gary Payton was a rental

When it broke, I heard rumors there was MTC. Like something about acquiring Sprewell and Kurt Thomas possibly for Cassell.

A team of GP, Latrell, Kurt, Tim, Mason, Kukoc, Redd could've been a solid one.

Man, it's not a league, it's an association.

Great point. Wonder why they call it League Pass.

Friendly reminder that some people were open to trading for Kyrie (and maybe still are) :lol:

I am so **** glad he is not our team’s problem.

Remember when we almost traded Middleton & Brogdon for Kyrie. Thank God we didn't

If the Nets waive Kyrie does anyone pick him up?

I suppose the lakers would but that seems to be the only team remotely desperate enough to deal with that clown.

If the Nets waived Kyrie, every team is calling his agent including the Bucks.

Kyrie is the exact type of pg we need next to Jrue.

Yeah Kyrie would still find work.

Better question is this off-season does he find a multi year deal? Because I think he might be entering the one year deal phase of his career. He's still talented enough that teams will talk themselves into him but I think they will want a quick exit door if **** goes sideways.

The Nets are getting everything they deserve for signing this loser. A few years ago they had a nice young team, and threw it all away to get in bed with a complete moron, and become the worst team in the NBA.

In theory but there is no way this bucks team takes him on for free. I vehemently disagree with this take.

I think the Lakers are the only team desperate enough to pick him up. I suppose there is still an outside chance of a Russ/filler/pick for Kyrie/Harris trade since the Lakers are an unmitigated disaster and the Nets May think the Russ contract is an asset at the deadline.

Kyrie is not a PG. He's an undersized, empty stats SG, and he's the exact opposite of what we need.

I continue to be mystified at the idea of taking the ball out of the hands of Giannis.
