I will say this: Pro athletes are basically groomed to live up their own ****, but Kyrie really does take the cake.

Question is: Are Nets really happy that he stays?

That, and taking that TPMLE was kind of a bluff, LOL.
Brian Geltzeiler: You see Mark Jackson getting a head coaching job as early as next year?

Adrian Wojnarowski: Not if people make calls on him. Not if an organization is doing their homework and knows all the things he brings with him.

Ben covers so much of what was missing for them in the playoffs the past season, which is defense, rebounding, and playmaking. Harris will give them another deadly shooter. Guys like seth and drummond now have time to build chemistry with their teammates. Marks is a good enough GM where I would be confident in his ability to re-tool the bench and role players. The only thing I'm worried about other than health is coaching. Nash has not shown that he is good enough, but narratives can change, just look at JKidd.

People laugh at their failures this season, but they have a squad and imo can contend with anybody.


lol ben

good luck with that

$37M reasons to opt-in.

Hard to imagine Brooklyn doesn't move him somewhere before the start of the season.

So the Lakers won't get an All Star for the taxpayer mid-level?

That's a shame.
