Media are chit stirrers who ask meddling questions and twist things so I don't blame him.

NYers are notoriously surly who don't take crap from nobody and now that he acts this way you NY fans want to get in a bunch about it? :lol:

I’d love for that to happen, but you can’t keep pushing back the plan and chasing tail so to speak. You HAVE to make a stand this year and go get your guys.

KD is just mad I think that the ,Edina is making it so obvious that he might leave. Remember he has to STILL face these guys on a day-to-day basis. Our media and fanbase can’t just shut up and keep things underwraps. It’s the same with Kyrie, he’s getting fed up too. :nonono:

I don’t think it’s that bad of a package if they take Hill and it’s like 4 picks

It's interesting that out of everything written about him, the Athletic article struck such a nerve.

I don’t blame him. Let him play ball. Ask questions about the game and stop making everything about free agency. He’s committed to a team right now. Let him do his job for that team and you can ask him about free agency during the offseason.

I guess Lakers will come back with an improved offer.

Replace kanter with any name to make up for the money since he won’t be here

Why would the nuggets trade everything for a guy who could possibly be a rental? They weren't on his list afterall. I don't blame them for lowballing a bit.

I suspect the Knicks won't do any more deals and this will cause a mental meltdown complete with whining and doom decrees from the soft fragile fans. You know who you are....:lol:
