Joe tsai takes time to adress kyries “views” but not the team needs

[jibba jones]

What do they mean by "burner account"?

Boy the OP is really out to lunch on this.

The movie (and the book it's based on, and the theories both are based on) is not about how some black people are Jews. It's about how Jews started the slave trade and anti-black racism, control the media, etc.

Tsai and Marks are to blame for one decision, and one decision only: the decision to bring in Kyrie because they thought (probably correctly) that it was the only way to get KD -- despite a mountain of evidence that Kyrie is a highly destructive and erratic presence who destroys everything he touches and who doesn't even make up for the drama by delivering wins in the playoffs.

They made a deal with the devil, and the devil always gets his due. In this case, the price is 4 wasted years and a zillion wasted dollars. If they are lucky it won't cost any more than that, and they'll learn their lessons about psychotic star players.

The good news is that there is a maximum of 77 games left before Kyrie is gone for good and the rebuild can begin.

What do they mean by "burner account"?

Its usually an account someone uses under a different name to say something that would be looked down upon if they said it themselves or to prop themselves up. Kind of like how KD created a few different accounts to get into arguments with fans that were criticizing his move to Golden State.

[Shark]

Kyrie is a dumbass. He plays in not just a city with a large Jewish population, but the borough itself is home to a large number of Jews. I'm fine with anyone who wants to bring a spotlight on black Jews, thats all fine and well. But get out of here with the anti-semetic nonsense that is spouted by some people/groups including the one that Kyrie decided to prop up.

[Soca]

Even in a contract year Kyrie can't stay low key and drama free. He just doesn't get it.

[wco81]

Kyrie is averaging almost 30 points so far, though his 3P% is way down.

Presumably he will get to near 50/40/90, though that may not necessarily help the Nets win.

Some team will want him, maybe if they do a 2 or 3 year deal, so Nets can either trade him during season or a sign and trade after the season.

Unless he goes full-on Kayne or Musk toxic, or Trump, really lean into racism.

It's hard to imagine Nets will let him walk without attempting to get something back otherwise.

As for Tsai, you never know, politicians in both parties are so anti-China that he may be negative to the Nets. Maybe keep a lower profile and have some other spokesperson.

Nets have to hope to get assets back because a full on rebuild where they sink to the top of the lottery for a few seasons can't be what the fan base wants.

I agree that the Nets will try to get something back, and it could happen at the deadline, but I think it’s 75% likely that no one is willing to give them anything good for him. No contender is going to want to bring him into their locker room. It might be a fringe playoff team willing to part with a low pick or a prospect, but I’m not sure what that kind of team would gain by bringing Kyrie in as a rental.

I can see someone looking to tank giving the Nets a decent player with a good-sized contract for Kyrie, on the theory that adding Kyrie would help their tank. In that situation though the Nets would probably want only expiring contracts to facilitate their rebuild next summer.

No one is giving Kyrie a 3-year deal under any circumstances.

[RussellandFlow]

The season is not even two weeks old and already created a distraction that his teammates and others in the organization will need to address because they will be asked about it. The team has enough issues with the on court stuff and Ben still being scared to death to do anything on offense. The 30 for 30 is going to epic.

Fans are already abandoning ship so it won't matter.

[Netaman]

get rid of him tonight. send him to the lakers for whatever filler and whatever picks. if KD wants out accommodate him too. there is no last dance. there is no embracing kyrie. he could hit every shot he takes the rest of the year including a game winner in the finals and he'd still be an unlikeable and ignorant schmuck.

move on. build around ben. if they suck this year at least they get a shot at Wembanyama.

the nets are in a tough spot. basically have to weigh potentially winning a chip against team and organizational culture. if you take a step back, then the best thing to probably do is to trade everyone you possibly could, recoup as many draft picks and young players and go from there. the value of the organization won't go down b/c it's a team and arena in new york city.

basketball wise, if you don't really care about team/org culture, then the immediate move is to fire nash, bring in a vet coach and see if you can do something this year. question is how many years do you have to pay a vet coach to make them even want to entertain the idea of coming into this situation.

[MrDollarBills]

I've been reading the responses on twitter and I'm convinced that Kyrie's fanbase is full of awful, hate filled people. The ignorance is kind of unsettling until you realize that the type of person that becomes a stan for someone like this is probably f*cked in the head like he is.

send him to the Lakers please so that those little pieces of sh*t can go with him.

We aren't winning anything. No coach worth a damn will want to deal with this mess.

I feel the Nets are purposely tanking to get a better coach in place; they had a players only meeting for a reason. No reason MDA and Udoka should be sitting at home while Nash has a job not doing any actual coaching.

[Nycspirit718]

Unreal how the entire league is laughing at this coach still coaching.i mean if you go to twitter EVERY reporter is avoiding this obvious problem! Do they have a gag order from tsai to where they arent allowed to question this? Crazy

[gigantes]

So given that the Nets don't have a lot of good moves here, what's the worst that could happen if they simply soldier on here? You know, to see if the team can turn it around in the next couple months. (ideally would include a short Kyrie suspension, but the right moment seems to be slipping away)

Would it be a case of postgame reporters relentlessly questioning Kyrie, leading to more inane outbursts from him? And/or too much general alienation caused in the BRK community, plus damage to the team's reputation?

I told yall. This is what Kyrie is promoting.

[wco81]

Saw clips of the post game interview.

He's not promoting, just posting on his social media.

As a public figure who can potentailly influence a ton of people, gotta be careful of what you are posting. Debatable if it's promoting or not.
