SureNets (KD) didn't want Russ. They were trying to find a 3rd team, but Kyrie and the Nets wanted the deal done quick. Ran out of time.
Dallas gave them picks in 2017 and 2019 as well. Same year as our picks.lakers have zero trade assets. nobody wants russ and his bad contract. making a move for kyrie was going to be difficult. those future picks offered were so far out away
We all believed it and all of us said that we ONLY get Kyrie if he sabatoged his way to lakers (for example, I won’t resign with anyone but lakers). When that wasn’t going to happen I knew lakers had no shot.lakers have zero trade assets. nobody wants russ and his bad contract. making a move for kyrie was going to be difficult. those future picks offered were so far out away
Honestly think the main reason Kyrie didn’t get sent to LA is because that’s where he wanted to be. And I get why Tsai didn’t want to give him exactly what he wanted.Dallas gave them picks in 2017 and 2019 as well. Same as our picks.
It’s pretty well known at this point that no one is going to help us in a trade. Not sure if it’s a Laker thing, a Bron thing or both.Honestly think the main reason Kyrie didn’t get sent to LA is because that’s where he wanted to be.

I think in this instance it was more of a Kyrie thing than a Lakers tax.It’s pretty well known at this point that no one is going to help us in a trade. Not sure if it’s a Laker thing, a Bron thing or both.
The combo is much better than Russ. They obviously also valued the better players NOW over the extra pick.Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney Smith are good basketball players

So a player can completely f up an organization’s plans/team by demanding a trade and then says I only wanna go here and the organization is supposed to say ok here’s your first class flight to ____ ?
I completely agree... Cats really cheering on Tsai in this situation all because they got a weird personal vendetta against Kyrie... Tsai is a terrible owner.
If a player is able to "f up an organization" wouldn't that fall on the owner for having terrible discernment? And again Harden, Kyrie, and KD requested a trade that's 3 hall of fame players dog.... The way you're talking you'd think the nets were some world class organization. Tsai's tenure as owner has been terrible. Man literally just fxcked over his team to spite a player who is going to his preferred destination anyway and your response is bu bu but Kyrie made him mad lolSo a player can completely f up an organization’s plans/team by demanding a trade and then says I only wanna go here and the organization is supposed to say ok here’s your first class flight to ____ ?
Yeah that's wild lolWait a 2029 first round pick. NBA need to add stipulations
Yikes.
