He's playing for a max this season on the Nets or not. Don't think he's going to be the usual distraction regardless of where he plays.

The fact that he's an expiring and only the Lakers (because WB) are seemingly interested says a lot.

I don't think the Nets are going to trade their stars this summer.

Kyrie ruins the Lakers before even joining them.

They got a couple for Harden but considering what they gave up to get Harden they should be limited, no? And it's hard to see Simmons being anything of value for the Jazz or any third team.



So irving, durant and simmons are staying and then Brooklyn trades for Mitchell?

Scoop B has been saying this for weeks.

Brian Lewis doesn't lie. He def has legit sources.

I think Kyrie would want to be traded if the Nets don't want him. But I don't think he wants to leave.

KD is just over the whole thing. That he created. Which makes him the bigger bitch.

Wants to cut and run to join a different Super Team.

Is that what I said?

I'm just saying the timing is interesting and I'm sure the Nets are interested. Followed by how I don't know how the Nets would pull it off, because the Jazz wouldn't be interested in Simmons and you can't get enough assets for him for a third team. Obviously any scenario that ends with Mitchell/Kyrie/KD in Brooklyn would mean that Simmons is gone.

KD, Mitchell, Ayton...there must be a trade that works with KD ending in up in PHX, Mitchell in BK and Ayton in Indie...

If they can land Mitchell that's a fantastic backcourt going forward.

It sounds terrible to me tbh, they'd have to trade Simmons and they are right back where they started. Well, worse.

With the way things are going in this country the past 6 years or so, Kyrie would probably win some key election and F things up even worse than he did in Brooklyn and Boston. I don't think this country needs Kyrie the politician peddling his crazy theories and disconnected thoughts.

Westbrook is probably pissed at all the reports of Lebron praying and cheering hard for Kyrie. Now that Westbrook is staying the lakers chemistry will be hilariously bad. Westbrook holds grudges hard. Kyrie just destroyed the lakers without even playing a single second there.
