We will have to step our game up. It's been a min since I've been this exited about team. God forbid if KD and Kyrie won't drop 50 each my hot takes will be brutal :lol:

Anyone still wondering why Marks was loading on guards

Oh you already know. If KD has a bad game, its just preseason - no big deal. If he drops 20? I'm popping champagne on a Sunday night for suure

Tomorrow can't come fast enough.
I don't care at all what happens other than everyone stays healthy. I'm traumatized by our bad luck.

But...I really wanna see KD shoot every time he touches the ball when he's out there.

Really shocked that levert or dinwiddie would start. id think shamet would be the obvious start if not prince. floor spacing over another on ball player. but i guess preseason is the time to experiment with it?

In order for this team to work, Levert and Dinwiddie have to become off ball players and they know it.

I think they're trying to see how it goes before putting both on the bench.

i dont know. i think dinwiddiie has worked as a 6th man. id think levert would work next to him. i think it gives us firepower for 48 minutes as well.

I’m waiting to see if he uploads it as a permanent video.

- KD clowned Kyrie for not answering media questions. Turned into funny banter. They both clearly don’t care for the backlash.

- Kyrie was educating KD in depth on the difference of NJ basketball players and NY basketball players.

- Both discussed how to motivate their teammates through being their best selves and how they look at basketball as an art form.

- KD discussed his leadership style and discussed the balance needed to be humble towards everybody in the organization and teammates to lead by example.

At the end, both of them couldn’t contain their excitement to suit up together.

My overall vibe was Kyrie is literally like a kid the night before Christmas right now. He’s excited to get back out there. He doesn’t care whatsoever for the hate he’s getting and it sounds like he’s developing a really good big brother relationship with Caris.

I missed that part of the Live but reading the quotes lead me to believe he truly wants Caris to be his student/mentee. They both have bonded really well.

yup. and you can see why as much as media and other teams fans hate kyrie his teammates LOVE him. you know it killed celtics fans when after that first boston game every celtic came over with hugs and gave him dap. then came out and vocally supproted him. the kyrie you get in media sound bites isnt the guy his teammates see.

Prokorov · Post #19 » by **Prokorov** » Sun Dec 13, 2020 4:50 am

From the IG live it seems from what Kyrie and Caris are saying they seem to think KD is all the way back. like back back not just recovered from injury

Prokorov · Post #20 » by **Prokorov** » Sun Dec 13, 2020 5:10 am

the IG live is straight comedy. you can tell these guys are tight they way the straight up clown eachother.

Kyrie is sitting indian style and caris keeps going at him like "bro why you sittin all criss cross apple sauce?"

Kyrie asking KD why he didnt throw it to him in the post in a scrimmage today and KD was like "i was gonna but you small as sh*t"
