The Kyrie thread - he probably doesnt bleed green

[Parliament10]

Watch on YouTube

Watching them side by side and see their chemistry and body language...it gives me hope.
The fun and the laughs they are having. It must always be like this with everybody.

Not much love for the rest of their team, pretty much all about their two-man Duke bond.

They do show a lot of camaraderie there.

At this point I’d love to know... If it was solely up to Kyrie.....which players on the current roster besides apparently Tatum would Kyrie want on the team next year. If he were realgm, do you think he’d gut the team? The only other guy I feel safe guessing would be Smart, but even then I’m not 100%.

Sounds to me like Irving would prefer keeping Tatum and going after KD then losing Tatum and getting AD.

And according to reload, Kyrie has a lot of pull.

Not sure how I feel.about losing out on AD for the sake of Tatum

Of course, many will just distort or twist this into their narrative. For whatever reason, people just want misery and conflict.

Yeah right ...like the battle royal between main stream media and Fox news hasn't created enough misery and conflict already?

Canman....theres no getting away from it....not unless you are off of the grid....If I was a young man again, I'd move to Alaska and build a log cabin in the woods...Sometimes I think we all are our own worst enemies....case in point..

It’s not hard. I don’t watch any “TV” these days other than games and I stream most of those. I don’t read a paper except for the NY Post online and that’s mostly only to find the front and backpage page headlines because they’re almost always funny. I only follow my family and a few friends on social media. And anything I still somehow hear from CNN, Fox News, et all I immediately disregard as agenda driven.

I somewhat understand what you are saying, but to say "mainstream media and Fox News" are in some battle royale is quite hyperbolic. First, I'm not a huge fan of Fox News and I never watch it. Second, to suggest they are any different than MSNBC, CNN, or NPR is mindblowing. Same with the NY Times and all the other liberal publications and conservative ones. I'm not turning this political at all, but all media outlets these days look for controversy or drama, plain and simple. And yes, if you think for yourself as an intellectual person (not singling you out, I mean in general), it's pretty easy to avoid it as BigJoke said.

Way Back when, News used to be "New Stuff", good or bad.
Now, it's just all bad, and purely sensationalism. Ratings, etc, etc.

If there's Good News out there, I'll watch it.
If not, I keep ta steppin'.

It seems Kyrie's been taking leadership notes from LeBron, so it wouldn't surprise me if he has suggested to Danny shipping JB out to the Warriors as part of the KD S&T. Kyrie seems to like having the low-usage, defense-covering Smart in the back court there with him. And we know he wants JT in the lineup too. What about Hayward? May be asking too much to have him coming off the bench next year, so they might try Smart to the bench, but too many offensive chefs are likely to spoil the team-balance broth. Or something like that.

Golden State of course would be a great location for JB, who would probably be happy to land back out in the Bay Area.

This is awesome. Thats sort of IMO the real Kyrie. Talking major trash with F bombs with his glasses on and letting down his guard.

Tatum sitting back at times taking that all in.

A little more smoke from NYC?

Well, I thought this was the worst part of the Dolan interview.

Is he hinting at Danny Ainge?

I would think he is talking about the Clippers, as two teams that plan to have cap space in the off season. But this is basically admitting to tampering.

I would absolutely love it if this guy got played and dumped Pozingis thinking he has Durant and then Durant doesn't even take his call again.

Dolan has been hanging out with too many Sixers fans. Some of those dudes think Bill Simmons had the story about Colangelo release just before free agency as a means to prevent the Sixers from obtaining free agents.

I'll third it's extremely easy to avoid Fox news and other major news. And none of them are any different, they're all paid by the same major corporate donors, it's just a slight twist on what topics they feature to drive up misery or anger.

The biggest thing that happened to ever destroy the need for cable is to be able to stream sports online in higher quality and better services for free than cable has ever given.

I haven't had cable in... perhaps going on 8 years now. If I want some news, I can only find bias sources but I'll seek it out through youtube or I can always visit news sites.

Kyrie’s tone seem to have changed past few games. I really think he’s coming around.

People forget he is still really young, Pierce didn't "get it" until he was pushing 30. Yeah he has been a dick most of this year, but i think people have turned on him to an unfair level.

Personally, I'm willing to give him a chance the rest of the season+playoffs, where i would say 75% of Celtic fans have completely made up their mind on him

I’m with you. I’d say my mind is 75% made up. But hopefully we’re only 75% of the way through the season plus playoffs.

Dear James Dolan....

[reload141]

Still confident he re-signs.... the key people around him are telling him to, but no one totally understands Kyries mind... he’s flicked the “I’m all in” switch for now. And that’s all that matters.

He recently has said he is all in?

Flicking the all in switch right now IMO is for the playoffs. Just how I take it in Kyrie land.
