Figured the way the Knicks pivoted to Brunson so hard was because they knew Zion was re-upping with NO.

Yes. Kyrie for Russ and first rounder.Maybe I'm not reading correctly, but 90% of the last 20 pages has said trading Kyrie FOR Russ. Y'all be typing just to type at times
Vs
Kyrie holding out and sitting out all year for nets citing mental health injury.
Which one you choose if you’re nets?
For us saying this: we assume no other team wants kyrie. If they do and he comes out and says he will resign with the following teams. At that point the lakers offer looks crappy. Til that happens, lakers are alive.
Also, Kyrie has a 5 mill trade kicker he may only waive if lakers are the team etc.
Again, unlikely but possible

I wish people would start leading with the fact that there are embedded terms in these things.

They saying Lakers tryna get KD and Kyrie to go along with Bron AD and Russ?
KD never gonna get respect.
For his careers sake I hope he doesnt do that. Honestly Kyrie too, gonna be known as the guy who cant win without Bron.
Kyrie is already known for that. Might as well try to win another ring at this point cause since he’s left Bron it’s been all downhill.

Don’t do it Pelicans. Man’s lost weight for the first time cause an extension was coming up. He will definitely ballon back up once the ink is dry.

Ya I don’t know what time you’re on trying to put anything on me.
Anyway there’s police reports that are public and photo evidence Chris Brown beat the **** out of Rihanna yet he still exists.
Men should never put there hands on women ever.
So everyone pretending this hasn’t in the past is being weird.
Jason Kidd beat his wife and he has a job as a head coach and made the Top 75 list..

Maybe the Bucks part. But even with all the Kyrie vax bs, the Nets were considered favorites to win the title going into this past season. I don’t think many people saw things imploding as quick as they did with them.

Y'all who?
Go look in in the Lakers thread. Not nobody is saying that bull. Every off season people want it to be "LaKeRs FaNs ThiNk ThEy'Re GetTiNg EvErYbOdY" so bad, and we never actually say that. It's always ALA saying we're getting everybody, and ALA mad about it. -foe

I would love for the Russ/1st for kyrie naysayers to please make a list of other potential trades for kyrie.
Dallas: Bertans and Dinwiddie and a 1st for kyrie.
Much better than Russ and a 1st but does BKN want long term deals? Will Dallas risk their future (a pick and good player in Dinwiddie) for kyrie who may leave? Are they gamblers like lakers. Reports indicate Dallas has no interest in crazy kyrie.
Next? Miami? Lowry? Robinson? + first rounder. Again better than laker deals sure but does BKN want long term deals? And also, is kyrie really hell bent on lakers. If so: then Miami is risking a lot. Plus I’m sure they prefer KD. How will butler and kyrie mesh? Lol

Waking up to the Gary Payton news.
There are two main parts of the CBA - the supermax to help smaller markets keep their stars, young guys just aren’t turning down $250+M contracts.
And the luxury tax, specifically the repeater clause.
Lost in the discussion after the warriors won is that to bring everyone back the luxury tax penalties would push the payroll north of $400M. Year after that to go for a 3 peat they’re knocking on $500M
Balmer is the only guy in the league who would pay that.
