I’m not even an armchair psychologist but there’s a variety of personality disorders that might fit him without being mental health issues. Eg borderline personality disorder. Also narcissism.

Antonio Brown is the guy I’ve worried about in terms of mental health, as in the dude might not live all that long. Kyrie, I think, is just a moron and an ass, and about the find his career earnings not what he’d hoped they’d be.

Kyrie’s time here has always felt like a fever dream to me.

Kyrie could have a tough go next year

I'm sure someone will throw the MLE at him.

I'm not even really sure I'm kidding. I can't imagine any team maxing him. That would just be insane stupidity dumbness.*

* In this case, the redundancy is warranted.

Kyrie for D'Angelo Russell makes sense for both teams.

I don't know guys. Not a mental health professional either but in my books, not wanting to resign for the Nets is not a sign of mental illness.

KD for brown is laughable at this point.

Offer them Brogdon, Gallo, filler + picks

I absolutely love that this is happening to the nets. Couldn't happen to a more deserving franchise

Will KD renew his trade demand? Stay tuned. But if he does, the chance that the Nets would trade KD to an Atlantic Division rival for less than full value is zero.

I went on vacation and missed 20 pages. But the timing of this being what three days after the nets say they aren’t in a rush for an extension seems telling.

An a related note, Danny’s got to be at Chipotle getting all the extras right now. He’s 100% involved in greasing the skids of whatever happens here.

How would the financials work in trying to make a KD trade happen without moving Al Smart Brown Tatum or Timelord? I'm guessing Brogdog, White, Grant, Gallo and picks?

There's no path to rebuilding through the draft because the Rockets control the Nets picks for the next 4 years because of the James Harden trade.

So if the Nets don't get a young star player or multiple borderline All-Star players for KD and Kyrie, it will be the dark ages for Nets basketball again.


No one believed me but four years ago I said the Nets were better off keeping their core group, re-upping DAR and just signing Randle.

Seriously if the Nets come away with most of the Jazz vets are the even really that worse off? Say they get Clarkson, Vanderbilt, Olynyk, Beasley? Some or all of that group?

They had Levert and Jarrett Allen.. even being patient about trades would’ve given them some better opportunities than Diva Durant and RHONYrie

I agree actually , would love to see him thrown into the Wolves mix, way more dynamic offensively than Russell

Yeah could be personality disorder but sometimes people just have “issues” that aren’t mental illness or personality disorder related.. like, their actual personality

Because we have the best record in the league and don't need him. It would be insane to move Brown for a guy who gets hurt every single year.

Antonio Brown's issues stem from the dirty hit from Vontaze Burfict.
