Let's get er done

Oh s***.

The Swedes almost pulled this off. Terrible turnover by Doncic at the end gave them an open look.

 

[DLF]

Laughing at us if kyrie doesn’t go to Lakers isn’t gonna be that effective bc we are already at rock bottom with Russ. Go ahead. What do we have to lose.

For the Dallas guys Vincent Van Goat addict4sneakers N41D D StaXX

Can the Mavs actually trade for Kyrie. What would that trade look like?

 

[freeze]

Kyrie ain't the heir apparent to ****. TF

 

[MVP]

No one is taking the 101 from LA to the Bay unless you want a scenic *** drive

Did it a little over a month ago. It's a beautiful drive up the coast.

If you're Dallas and Bkn would you do it?

This could also assume Bkn would be netting Ayton, Bridges, plus more for KD.

Much like the proposed Laker trade for Kyrie.

I have no idea why the Nets would do this if they’re actually looking for “right now” talent.

My question is does KD want to win or does he want his respect? He would certainly win in GS, but as far as respect…….. folks will continue to say he took the easy way out.

I hope KD has realized that none of that talk matters. He’s a 2 time champion. He played on the two greatest teams in NBA history and formed the greatest 1-2 punch in sports history.

 

[pmatic]

I think the respect went out the window when he asked to be traded to the #1 seeds this past season.

 

[elpablo21]

KD said his legacy died in July of 2016. I think that was some part of his acceptance of not caring anymore...kinda

 

[pmatic]

Not sure I buy into his box score stats, but he was kinda good?

 

[witnesskb24]

KD could’ve had more rings if he stuck with GS but he let his pride and Twitter fingers ruin that

 

[Based Jesus]

I feel like I'm watching Erupt's last great performance as the completely reformed HIM character

 

[Coupé It]

Bring ERUPT back.

NOW!!!

Gotta disagree here.

He’s still yearning for that validation like Maximus Meridius said.

He cares TOO MUCH IMO. It’s kind of pathetic.

 

[addict4sneakers]

crazy

 

[ill steelo]

Dude is opening the app & searching “Kevin Durant” and “KD”

He will never know peace.

idk. seems like we care too much about what he cares about if anything

Not much to offer lol let's be honest

Can they? Yes. Will they? Doubt it.

I wouldn’t do this, I don’t think. Why do we need Joe Harris?

Need to keep Maxi. Finally have two bigs that will allow him to play the role he’s best suited for and he’s too important to their defensive versatility.

Yeah thats fair. I still think him going to Brooklyn was caring but blowing it up to jump to another contender after not feeling validation the first time he jumped ship feels like he's letting go of some of the narrative because repeating the same thing expecting a different outcome is insanity

Everyone cares. That’s not pathetic at all. Pretending he doesn’t care though?
