Wow, Luka couldn't even recruit his fellow country man to play with him 

 

 

Listen I’m trying to tell folks…Luka must be earning a bad rep among players

Windhurst was implying that on first take. I wonder if they are going to send Mitchell somewhere.

Maybe they’re clearing out for a retool around Mitchell ?

Seems like he and KD hatched a plan.  Kyrie opts in, KD asks for trade, Kyrie requests a buyout - then join the team KD is traded to. That way he gets the bulk of his money and still leaves the Nets. I tell ya.

Power move if it works.

I appreciate the reminder

Exactly..if they do that or try the Ben Simmons thing after there signed or traded they should have to sit out the year for that team..lol.. some rules need to be put in place 

Gonna be tough to get the Players union to agree with that one

If we have Murray, Hunter, Simmons, and OO in our lineup, I’m not as concerned about KD playing in our division. He’s gonna have concerns playing in our division. 

This is true but if he don’t like it his back will start hurting again.

If Simmons comes here, it will make or break Supes mantra that defense is primary PF responsibility. 
My biggest concern with Simmons here isn’t so much his shooting deficiencies (Cap going out is worse). I worry he would have a problem not operating with the ball in his hands since Trae and DJM would be primary and secondary handlers. He considers himself a PG, even though he would be a better PF. 

My thing is his maturity and desire to play winning basketball.

Does being the best basketball player he could be matter to him ?

Or would he rather be a socialite ?

I would trade KD to wherever gives him the best package.  He is under contract for 4 years and screw’s them over.  He shouldn’t get to,dictate where he goes

Can’t do business like that in the NBA.

I wouldn’t give Bam for Durant at this point in his career.

I think the Nets are overvaluing KD.  He is old, slowed a little and coming off knee injuries 

KD is still very much KD.

Ben 6'11 and 240 lbs almost the same size as KAT

Ben Simmons at C ? 
 

Im just kidding…kinda

Sure, his "personal decision" caused his whole team to collapse. Sounds like a wonderful guy to have on your team lol

That’s not how billion dollar organizations work. If the whole team collapsed, there’s a larger problem.

Just now, Peoriabird said:

Yeah but who will he pass the ball to hit a jumper?

Hisself and DHunt cuz everybody else is either super shaky or an automatic brick

Kyrie couldve just been an adult and gotten the vaccine instead of his bs "im out with the people" crap when people were going into work and getting infected.

Dude could've gotten the vaccine and James would have stayed. Man could have been a good leader in Boston, a good leader in Cleveland, but the dude has always had issues everywhere he has gone.

No reason to think he wouldn't be a cancer in Dallas (or Atlanta) either

Pause and take a second to think about how insane you sound telling another grown man to make a personal medical choice with his most valuable asset. 
 

Now I don’t disagree with you about leadership. I don’t think he’s a leader, but I don’t think he’s a cancer either.

Kyrie didn't sit out most of the season cause of dumb vax bs?

That sounds like any issue with New York City, not a Kyrie problem. 
 

Coincidentally, they dropped the rules at the beginning of baseball season.

But not for Kyrie.

This is all I’m going to say about this particular subject.

Who has Luka driven away? Unicorn was injured and/or ineffective and Brunson is being overpaid by about 30 million by that Knicks.

Both of those guys. Brunson isn’t overpaid. That was his market value. A former all star and a 20 ppg scorer. He’s only been in the league 4 years and no one is putting Dallas on their wishlist despite their moderate success.

Just now, akay said:

Let em get Kyrie, would be funny watching him destroy another franchise and drive Luka away

It’s the other way around it’s Luka driving people away. Kyrie didn’t destroy BKN. BKN destroyed BKN.

WHAT YOU TALKIN BOUT WILLIS !?

Trae Young defending Ben

 

That smirk when he says it sucks for him is GOLD. That’s my MFin boy man I swear

Unrelated by apparently Mavs hunting after Kyrie. I may have to eat all the ish I was just talking if they get him too

What trade value does Simmons have if he throws a tantrum here ? He got to a big market like he wanted and has done nothing with the opportunity.

Forget Simmons can we get Butler at the three? Trae/Murray/Butler. Trae is protected.

Now you’re cooking with grease

We better get freakin' Simmons for the ghost of Josh Smith and Starbucks coffee mug.

Dawg next thing you know his back gonna be hurting again

Damn, wonder why one of the worst defensive teams in the league would want a DPOY candidate 

That cannot shoot whatsoever AND has shown himself to be a drama queen. Got sent off a potential contender onto another contender and no one wants to keep him.

Did I mention that he cannot and will not shoot ? 
 

I know I forgot to mention he hasn’t shown a desire to improve. 
 

I also forgot to mentioned that his highlighted weaknesses probably lost him the series against us a couple of years ago. 
 

I have YET to see the on court fit but I’ll let some of the greater basketball minds break it down for me.

'Member last year when everyone was joking that players don't want to play with Luka, that he's a bad teammate? 

Just remember EazyRoc was trying to talk the whole forum off the ledge with Luka and Trae was always my guy..

Ok I’m done

Source update:

We are engaging the Nets with talks over KD and also Simmons. Trae is pushing for either one to come to Atlanta. 

Lol why do we have such a hard on for Ben Simmons
