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.

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

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

Didn’t help but not sure it can all be placed to thst. Ab was a troublemaker in college as well

I can’t be a GM or team owner cos if I’m Tsai/Marks, I’d just spite Kyrie and let him expire. Good luck finding a team that will give you a long-term contract in the offseason. His trade value is tanked anyway. What’s the most Nets gonna get? An expiring and a protected 1st?

The problem with this is whether it will hurt them doing business with Klutch sports in the future. While Kyrie isn't a client of Klutch, LeBron is part owner. Basically, the same logic comes into play when it was time to do the AD trade. So by essentially giving the FU to LeBron by not giving into this demand and letting Kyrie expire might hurt future business. The league probably needs to close this loophole when LeBron retires as its very clear he has some say in the agency.

The mother of all "all in" trades.

Is it worth it to make a move for Mo Bamba as a backup big or the Magic will ask way too much for him?

If this happens our starting lineup will all have 11-letter names.

Marcus Smart
Jaylen Brown
Jayson Tatum
Kevin Durant
Rob Williams

I’m ready for a Grant + Payton trade

Mo barely cares.

Cs with the double big lineup needs a better 3rd big off the bench.

It was clear against the Suns when Rob sat down in the 1st qtr., the Suns went on a run.

Kornet is just not good enough.

There was one point where CP3 shot over Kornet like Kornet wasn't even there and Kornet is 7-2!

Grant Williams has been playing poorly but you only move Grant as part of a package for a big time player like J Grant, OG etc.

G Williams is too important

What value Grant may of had is completely tanked now. Couldn't of come at a better time.

Very hard to get Olynyk and keep Gallo.. basically a 5-1 deal, you lose Luke, Sam, PP, Blake, Justin Jackson, plus Kabengele to match salary.. best-case you take Vanderbilt into the TPE too.

Fierce1 · Post #156 » by **Fierce1** » Sat Feb 4, 2023 4:21 am

Gallo, Kornet, Jackson, and a pick for Olynyk works!

TheMartian · Post #157 » by **TheMartian** » Sat Feb 4, 2023 4:22 am

Barton makes sense for the C's, so not surprised with the mutual interest. I don't see this not happening unless Barton is not bought out.

Fierce1 · Post #158 » by **Fierce1** » Sat Feb 4, 2023 4:39 am

Looks like an LA vs. Boston finals is not far-fetched if Kyrie goes to the Lakers.

Kyrie trade demand came out the day Uncle Drew premiered on Netflix Philippines. Irving to Rain or Shine Elasto Painters of the Philippine Basketball Association confirmed!

Curious what will happen with KD. And yes, I’m still on board with getting him to the Cs if there’s a realistic path of doing that even midseason.

After our hot shooting start til end of November, Celtics are just 19th on offense, 19th in TS%, and 2nd on defense. We still suffer offensive droughts whenever Tatum sits. Getting a top 5 offensive player of all-time can help with that I think.

But that might be more of an offseason type of deal (unless some bolder and more desperate team jumps in and pushes all their chips soon).
