I was against getting Millsap in 2020.

He's been on the decline since 2017-18.

OK, OK , I know we are talking preseason. But watching Romeo hitting 3s left and right (slight exaggeration) and Tyler Herro going 0-7 from 3 tonight makes me feel good.

What if Ainge was right after all?? Romeo > Herro! :o :D

Do I need to duck for cover 8-)

One thing's for sure, Herro will never become the defender that Romeo is.

In Brad we trust.

All of that talk all offseason about potential PF's we could try and get. Juancho was barely ever mentioned in those threads at all. But as it turns out, he could end up being just the piece we needed - and we gave up basically nothing for him. Brad, you sly dog you.

Thank goodness the Celtics have nothing to do with Kyrie Irving. Irving did the Celtics a huge favor by not resigning with Boston.

The nets are still championship contenders but at least they are more beatable now.

Will he still get paid? or is he suspended like Simmons.

Nets not playing games! They don't have to pay kyrie, right? Simmons did a reverse Houdini because Sixers put their foot down! This is very entertaining, not necessarily in a good way, but I'm watching.

Gets paid for away games. Not overstepping the NBAs rule but not trying to get a grievance from the players association

Will he still play road games? even though he can't practice with them? lol what a **** show. They should move to tampa like the Raptors did for the playoffs. Anything goes in florida.

No he won't play or practice at all but since the team is making that choice they will pay kyrie for all but home games because the NBA mandated that players aren't paid for that

And we thought Kyrie had been problematic for us... Compared to the show he's putting on for the Nets, I think he was lovely here.

He is going to make $19 million to sit at home. Unless KD/Harden light a fire under his ass he is staying home

Kyrie lol man he’s just like the worst person going right now. Love watching his shenanigans when he’s not on our team.
