2022 NBA Offseason Thread: Preseason kicks off; Things are fine in Los Angeles, Draymond beats the charges

[lawdog1]

kinda insane that Brooklyn may be shutting down "7-11" after a couple seasons. never thought it would unravel this quickly
in the end, i think ownership and management will probably bend. no way they go into the season with ben and a disgruntled kd

When you think about it, probably shouldn’t be all that surprising.

Seems like most recognizer when it happened that pairing up two different guys who are emotionally volatile and prone to become disgruntled carried a level of risk.

These FA’s are going to put some respect on Atlanta’s name, we attractive. Falcons stink but the Hawks and Braves are solid.

another offseason thread? why?

can we just have one offseason/preseason/regular season/playoff thread from now on?

This has been tried in the past.

Madness would be an understatement.

Even if Brooklyn rolls ahead w/ KD and Kyrie...**** looking kinda murky w/ them as your head honchos.

KD has played 90 regular season games total the last 2 years. He's basically on the Kawhi plan now. Anything more than 50ish games and you start entering the danger zone. Ideally, his "co-star" shouldn't be someone who's also not the most durable and can't hold up for the bulk of the season.

Sounds like the Nets need an iron man of sorts. Like Russell Westbrook.

True. But I thought bk was desperate enough to give control to kd and Qai to play Gm. They sort of caved in on the covid stance as the season went on. Guess marks and tsai thought otherwise after the playoffs. The minute they give Qai the bag, he is going to take pto

Swap lebron for KD. swap AD for Myrie

Now swap the lakers for the nets

Durant, Kyrie, and Ben are enough to win a championship. Keep it together, Brooklyn.

What locker room chemistry will Kyrie destroy next, that’s the big question this off-season

Kyrie has been more of an issue with coaching/front office/fans than in the locker room

No

NBA Draft is always so great from an entertainment perspective, and it's just the tip of the iceberg.

Free agency and trade shenanigans about to get wild.

 

[addict4sneakers]

No

Point being made is that KD needs Westbrook and much as Bron needs Westbrook

No one needs Westbrook more than a team tanking.

 

[niketock88]

Kyrie such a joke

No need to sick him on KD

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Brunson and bridges being in the same sentence as max contract is wild

Good for them though if they get it

Brunson earned himself at least a solid bag

Brooklyn needs to blow it up. At least they can blow it up and end up in a not bad rebuilding situation. Get a haul for KD. Get anything at all for Kyrie. Trade Seth to a contender. Ben you can’t get **** for but whatever, maybe he becomes a good starter again.
